Steve Capone, Jr. shares three of his previously unpublished works from the last half decade or so. They are a bit odd. Wonder what it might have been like to see Jesus push a kid off a roof? Why an upstanding young woman might be breaking into a thrift shop after hours? Or what a man earning his million-miler recognition might have sacrificed to earn such high esteem? Three shorts answer these questions, at least in the mind of their author.

Lovecraft's The Shadow Out of Time, first published in the June 1936 edition of Astounding Stories, follows Professor Nathaniel Wingate Peaslee, who suffers a sudden mental collapse in 1908, losing his memory for five years. During this period, his body is controlled by an unknown intelligence while his own consciousness experiences life in a vast prehistoric era, housed within the body of a member of the Great Race of Yith—an ancient, time-traveling alien species that exchanges minds with beings across time to gather knowledge.

Set seven years after the events of The Weapon Takers Saga and six years before Heirs of War, this interquel short story links the two epic fantasy series together. Since the Isharite Wars, Jesper has earned a living and seen the world, working as a mercenary. Along with the grizzled warrior, Herin, and the enigmatic sorcerer, Rimmon, they've done some shady work. But they've never been asked to kill anyone before. And this job comes from a king.

This macabre anthology gathers seven of H. P. Lovecraft’s most chilling tales of revenants, reanimation, and spectral horrors. From lonely crypts to decaying ancestral mansions, each story unearths a world where the dead do not rest—and where the curious may find themselves entombed alongside ancient secrets. With gothic elegance and mounting dread, Lovecraft explores the boundary between life and death, and the madness that lies in attempting to cross it.

In this unnerving collection of cosmic horror, H. P. Lovecraft casts his gaze far beyond our fragile Earth, revealing a universe vast, uncaring, and filled with incomprehensible forces. These seven stories confront the listener with the terrifying notion that mankind is not alone, not significant, and not safe. From ancient aliens buried in Antarctic ice to cryptic transmissions from the void, these tales chronicle the slow unravelling of minds exposed to truths no human was meant to grasp.

En los cuentos de Julio Cortázar, el juego es cosa seria: está en la estructura de los relatos, en el fino tejido de los diversos planos narrativos e incluso en las reglas que se imponen los propios personajes a riesgo de pagar con la vida. Acaso ello explique el gusto cortazariano por la transgresión, esa tendencia a disolver el orden establecido.
