The Horned Ones
Cornucopia Caverns is a popular side trip
for vacationers. Entire families can enjoy the guided
tours through its passages and chambers. Entire families
can be trapped in a cold, crushing darkness of stone. A
few will survive. Some of those will even escape. And
that's when the horror really begins.
Look for it late in 2012 from Belfire Press.

The end of the world has come and gone. The dead have risen, and they've won. No more rallying of the troops. No miracle cure or weapon. Just lots of dead people walking around. If the living dead won, what would the world be like? This collection of eighteen tales-including entries from David Wellington, Christine Morgan, Jack Ketchum, and Gary A. Braunbeck-take up the call to answer that question. People go to work. Have sex. Get drunk. Fall in love. Take revenge. Raise families. Watch TV. Laugh. Mourn. Murder. Pray. The world is dead, but life goes on.

The Widow’s Walk
Silver Doorway #6:
The Alchemist's Girl
All of the Broderick kids' previous adventures began when a visitor from another world came through the Silver Doorway. This time, they have a different problem! One of their friends from this side knows their secret, and when he goes through, they have to go after him before he gets himself in all kinds of trouble. But how can they find him on the crowded, chaotic streets of the city of Thanis?
Tell No Tales
Twelve ordinary Americans.
One isolated Caribbean island.
Half a million dollars in gold.
The contestants for the new historical-themed reality game show Pirate Adventure think they know what they're getting themselves into. The show's creator and the production team are confident that they have everything under control.
Sure, there have been a few problems. Equipment glitches. Accidents. Injuries. Illness. Routine setbacks, that's all. A run of bad luck. Certainly nothing more. Not, for instance, a curse.
Not, for instance, the spirit of Captain Smythe, reaching out from beyond the grave to punish those who've invaded his resting place. Not, for instance, the vengeful wrath of his spectral crew, seeking to protect their long-buried treasure.
It couldn't be anything like that. Or so the living keep telling themselves. Even after the disappearances … and the murders …
When a worsening world situation traps them on the island, the cast and crew will learn the hard way that challenges won't help, alliances don't matter, the votes mean nothing, and survival is very much at stake.
The ElfLore Trilogy
A newly revised and edited edition of Silversilk, Knight of the Basilisk & Truegold combined into one 636 page hardback edition.
The ElfLore Trilogy
Longevity, grace, beauty, magic, wisdom … the gifts of the elvenfolk are many. Nowhere are those gifts enjoyed more fully than in the kingdom of the Emerin. It is a place of light and music, culture and civilization. It is also a place of pride, greed, bitter envy and murderous hate. And in the wake of a terrible war with the dwarves, the Emerin is a land without a king. A land where those who crave power will go to any lengths to achieve it.
Silversilk
Swordmaid and sorceress Ariana Mirida only hopes to clear her father's name and reclaim her family's ancestral home. Little does she suspect that she is about to turn a nation upside down with a quest that will pit her against renegade wizards, corrupt counts, treacherous heroes and the deepest secrets of the Emerin itself.
Knight of the Basilisk
Amid darkness and fire and blood, one young woman is bequeathed an unexpected destiny from a dying warrior-priest. To fulfill it, she will need strength. She will need faith. She will need to challenge the long-held traditions of her people. And she will need to sacrifice the one heartfelt desire she always held most dear.
Truegold
Betrayed. Robbed of his inheritance and deprived of his magic. Imprisoned. Some men would have broken. One man dreams of escape, justice and revenge. Even if those dreams lead him to the rocky slope of a dragon's lair, where the fate of a kingdom, and the future of the elven people, will be decided in one final confrontation.
