When a storm throws five Scottish seamen onto a remote Japanese island their first priority is shelter and food.
A ruined temple provides both, and a cache of treasure promises comforts to come.
But there is something else on the island with them, something that has been waiting for someone to come.
It has a duty to perform, and the ties of duty are strong.
Stronger even than death.

UNSTRUNG by William Meikle
Puppets are harmless.
Dancing on the end of their strings, obeying your every whim, only going where you want them to go. That’s all they are. But what if one wanted to be just a little bit more?
Meet ‘The Red McGregor.’
He’s nobody’s puppet. He has no strings to hold him down. What he has is a lust for life… and death.

REDEMPTION by Brooke Vaughn
A modern day ‘Bonnie and Clyde’ continue a spree of robbery and violence with the carefree abandon of a couple with no value for themselves or life.

It’s the time for the annual harvest fayre.
A time for giving…and a time for cleansing.

PLUTONIAN PARODIES by Rhys Hughes
“…what might be dream in others, in Hughes, is material accessible to his waking mind. If Edgar Allan Poe were living, he could probably analyse it and tell us something about the Rhys Hughes who amazes us.” – Everett F. Bleiler
For more than twenty years Rhys Hughes has been producing carefully crafted parodies of his favourite authors, parodies written with love as well as a comic appreciation of the dark side. Now gathered together under one cover are the three parodies he regards as his finest. Three sly but deeply affectionate twists of the knife into the hearts of Poe, Lovecraft and Hemingway. He says they asked for it. Really they did. Honest!
