Joe Hill Knihy

Ignatius Perrish sa celú noc opíjal a stváral divé kúsky. Na druhy deň sa zobudil, cítil sa pod psa, hlavu mu išlo roztrhnúť... a zo slúch mu vyrastali rohy. Kedysi sa Igovi žilo sťa v siedmom nebi: narodil sa do privilegovanej rodiny ako druhý syn svetoznámeho hudobníka a mladší brat vychádzajúcej televíznej hviezdy. Hovel si ako vo vatičke, peniaze mohol rozhadzovať a v bohatých kruhoch mal pevné, zaručené miestečko. Mal vlastne všetko a ešte dačo navyše – získal si lásku Merrin Williamsovej, lásku založenú na spoločných snoch, spoločných dobrodružstvách a neskutočnom očarení z letného slnovratu. Odrazu však krásna a veselá Merrin zmizla zo života – za nevysvetliteľných okolností ju znásilnili a zavraždili, pričom Ig sa stal hlavným podozrivým. Nikdy ho za zločin nesúdili, ale porota zložená z verejnej mienky ho navždy označila za jediného možného vinníka. Z ničoho nič Ig v sebe objavuje ohromnú novú silu vyplývajúcu z nového vzhľadu a rozhodne sa, že ju využije na dolapenie netvora, čo zabil Merrin a zničil mu život. To, že sa správal slušne a modlil sa za všetko najlepšie, ho nepriviedlo nikam. Nastáva čas na pomstu... je najvyšší čas, aby sa veci ujal diabol.

Mŕtvi putujú k svojmu cieľu, živých ženú pred sebou... Keď sa sily minulosti spoja so silami záhrobia, pred spravodlivým pomstiteľom z ríše duchov niet úniku. A šancu uniknúť mu nemá ani starnúci muž, ktorého život rozmaznanej rockovej hviezdy, strávený vo svetle reflektorov, vôbec nepripravil na boj o vlastné svedomie a dušu. Čo sa však stane, keď vysvitne, že aj duch-pomstiteľ má vedľajšie úmysly?

Tato kniha obsahuje pět mistrovsky zpracovaných povídek, v nichž se scenárista Joe Hill spolu s výtvarníkem Gabrielem Rodriguezem vydávají do dob dávno minulých. Zlatý věk obsahuje tři úvodní krátké povídky: Malý svět, Do nitra Luny a také vůbec poprvé publikovanou minipovídku Síla hudby, které pomalu, ale neodbytně směřují k drásajícímu finále, rozehranému v povídce „...jak vojska bledých čet...“ a vrcholícímu v crossoveru se Sandmanem, v příběhu Co peklo schvátí..., v němž se objeví také Lucifer a mnohé další postavy ze slavného Gaimanova komiksu. Každý z příběhů představuje úryvek ze života předků rodiny Zámkových z počátku dvacátého století, kteří, stejně jako jejich potomci, sváděli pomocí kouzelných klíčů velké i malé bitvy. Ať už však bojovali na frontě první světové války či v hlubinách samotného pekla, vždy se snažili především ochránit svou rodinu i svět.

"It took two lifetimes and countless victims, but Lucas 'Dodge' Caravaggio has his terrible prize at last: the key which will open The Black Door. Disguised in the form of little Bode Locke, Dodge descends into the Drowning Cave, to throw back the door and release the demons on the other side. Those who have stood against him for so long - Tyler, Kinsey, Scot, Nina, Rufus, and all the rest - take their places as the final tragedy unfolds ... A confrontation between decency and hate in the caverns a hundred feet beneath Keyhouse, at the threshold of an evil kept for generations under lock and key."--Provided by publisher

But Tyler and Kinsey have a dangerous key of their own - one that can unlock all the secrets of Keyhouse by opening a gateway to the past. The time has come for the Lockes to face theri own legacy and the darkness behind the Black Door. Because if they don't learn from their family history, they may be doomed to repeat it, and time is running out!

Now a Netflix original series! Named a "modern masterpiece" by The A.V. Club, Locke & Key tells a sprawling tale of magic and family, legacy and grief, good and evil. Acclaimed suspense novelist and New York Times best-selling author Joe Hill (The Fireman, Heart-Shaped Box) has created a gripping story of dark fantasy and wonder—with astounding artwork from Gabriel Rodriguez—that, like the doors of Keyhouse, will transform all who open it. The epic begins here: Welcome to Lovecraft. Following their father's gruesome murder in a violent home invasion, the Locke children return to his childhood home of Keyhouse in secluded Lovecraft, Massachusetts. Their mother, Nina, is too trapped in her grief—and a wine bottle—to notice that all in Keyhouse is not what it seems: too many locked doors, too many unanswered questions. Older kids Tyler and Kinsey aren't much better. But not youngest son Bode, who quickly finds a new friend living in an empty well and a new toy, a key, that offers hours of spirited entertainment. But again, all at Keyhouse is not what it seems, and not all doors are meant to be opened. Soon, horrors old and new, real and imagined, will come ravening after the Lockes and the secrets their family holds. Locke & Key, Vol. 1 features an introduction by Robert Crais, author of the bestselling Elvis Cole series of crime novels.

Nobody knew where the virus came from. FOX News said it had been set loose by ISIS, using spores that had been invented by the Russians in the 1980s. MSNBC said sources indicated it might've been created by engineers at Halliburton and stolen by culty Christian types fixated on the Book of Revelation. CNN reported both sides. While every TV station debated the cause, the world burnt. Pregnant school nurse, Harper Grayson, had seen lots of people burn on TV, but the first person she saw burn for real was in the playground behind the school

'Stories' is a groundbreaking anthology that reinvigorates, expands, and redefines the limits of imaginative fiction and affords some writers in the world - from Peter Straub and Chuck Palahniuk to Roddy Doyle and Diana Wynne Jones, Stewart O'Nan and Joyce Carol Oates to Walter Mosley and Jodi Picoult - the opportunity to work together, defend their craft, and realign misconceptions. Gaiman, a literary magician whose acclaimed work defies easy categorization and transcends all boundaries, and 'master anthologist' ('Booklist') Sarrantonio personally invited, read, and selected all the stories in this collection, and their standard for this 'new literature of the imagination' is high. Joe Hill boldly aligns theme and form in his disturbing tale of a man's descent into evil in 'Devil on the Staircase'. In 'Catch and Release', Lawrence Block tells of a seasoned fisherman with a talent for catching a bite of another sort. Carolyn Parkhurst adds a dark twist to sibling rivalry in 'Unwell'. Joanne Harris weaves a tale of ancient gods in modern New York in 'Wildfire in Manhattan'. Vengeance is the heart of Richard Adams's 'The Knife'. Jeffery Deaver introduces a dedicated psychologist whose mission in life is to save people in 'The Therapist'. A chilling punishment befitting an unspeakable crime is at the dark heart of Neil Gaiman's novelette 'The Truth Is a Cave in the Black Mountains'.

ENTHÄLT: THE LOW, LOW WOODS 1-6

Uznany autor bestsellerowych powieści suspensu Joe Hill (Pudełko w kształcie serca, Rogi) przedstawia historie mroku, fantasy i cudów: Locke & Key. Napisany przez Hilla i ilustrowany przez Gabriela Rodrigueza, Locke & Key opowiada o Keyhouse, niezwykłej posiadłości w Nowej Anglii, zawierającej wiele niesamowitych drzwi, które są w stanie odmienić tych, którzy odważą się przez nie przejść. Jest to także dom przepełnionej nienawiścią istoty, która nie spocznie póki nie otworzy najbardziej przerażających ze wszystkich drzwi... Seria została dwukrotnie nagrodzona British Fantasy Award (w 2009 i 2012) oraz wielokrotnie nominowana do nagrody Eisnera. Telewizja FOX planowała stworzyć serial na bazie komiksu, jednak po zrealizowaniu odcinka pilotażowego projekt został zawieszony.
