Als es Professor Ruckus Mandulbaum zu Beginn der 60er Jahre gelingt, mit der von ihm erfundenen Titan Badge in normalen Menschen ganz und gar außergewöhnliche Kräfte zu erwecken, erschafft er das erste Superheldenteam und macht damit drei Kinder über Nacht zu Halbgöttern: den Hyperions. Knapp zwanzig Jahre später soll nun bereits die dritte Generation der von den Medien gefeierten Weltenretter ihren Platz im Rampenlicht einnehmen, doch Vista und Ansel, zwei der Original-Hyperions, für die Professor Mandulbaum einst wie ein Vater war, wollen sich nicht damit abfinden, ein Leben als sang- und klanglos abgesetzte Superhelden zu führen. Kurzerhand brechen sie in das Museum ihres Erfinders ein, um die Titan Badges zurückzuholen, doch ihre Aktion geht gehörig daneben und endet in einer spektakulären Geiselnahme. Belagert von SWAT-Teams und Fernsehkameras, droht die Lage zu eskalieren, wenn der Professor selbst nicht mehr vermittelnd eingreifen kann. Doch Vista und Ansel waren nicht die einzigen Hyperions, und schon bald tritt ein weiterer Gegner auf den Plan, der ganz eigene Pläne verfolgt. Wer kann jetzt noch wem vertrauen? Mit irrwitziger Retro-Optik und ungehemmter Spielfreude versteht sich THE HYPERIONS als herrlich kratzbürstiger Gegenentwurf zu den hochglanzgelackten Comic-Blockbustern der letzten Jahre. Jon McDonalds vermischt in seiner Meta-Superheldensaga die knallbunte Krawallmentalität der frühen BATMAN-Verfilmungen mit frechem Humor und liebenswerten Effekten – und verhilft so ganz nebenbei seinen Hauptdarstellern Cary Elwes (SAW), Penelope Mitchell (THE VAMPIRE DIARIES) und COBRA KAI-Star Tanner Buchanan zu beindruckenden schauspielerischen Höchstleistungen.

Three Gothic Novels is a compelling collection that brings together three quintessential works of Gothic literature: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla, and Bram Stoker's Dracula. Each novel delves into the macabre and the supernatural, exploring themes of fear, horror, and the unknown, while also probing deeper questions about humanity, morality, and the boundaries of science and nature. In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley tells the haunting tale of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who defies natural laws to create life, only to be horrified by the monstrous being he brings into existence. This groundbreaking novel is not just a horror story but also a profound exploration of ambition, responsibility, and the ethical limits of scientific exploration. Shelley's intricate narrative raises enduring questions about creation, isolation, and the human condition. Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla introduces readers to one of literature's first female vampires. Set in a remote Austrian estate, the novella follows the mysterious and alluring Carmilla as she ingratiates herself into the lives of the residents, particularly the young and innocent Laura. Through its atmospheric storytelling and psychological complexity, Carmilla explores themes of predation, sexuality, and the supernatural, laying the groundwork for many modern vampire tales. Bram Stoker's Dracula is perhaps the most iconic vampire story ever written. The novel chronicles the efforts of Count Dracula to move from Transylvania to England, where he seeks to spread the undead curse. Through the diaries and letters of characters like Jonathan Harker, Mina Murray, and Dr. Van Helsing, Stoker weaves a gripping narrative of suspense, horror, and the battle between good and evil. Dracula is a richly layered novel that delves into Victorian anxieties about sexuality, immigration, and the limits of modernity. Together, these three novels represent the pinnacle of Gothic fiction, each contributing to the genre's development and enduring popularity. Three Gothic Novels is an essential collection for anyone interested in the roots of horror and the exploration of the dark and mysterious aspects of the human psyche. Contents: Mary Shelley: Frankenstein Sheridan Le Fanu: Carmilla Bram Stoker: Dracula

Kurzerhand brechen sie in das Museum ihres Erfinders ein, um die Titan Badges zurückzuholen, doch ihre Aktion geht gehörig daneben und endet in einer spektakulären Geiselnahme. Belagert von SWAT-Teams und Fernsehkameras, droht die Lage zu eskalieren, wenn der Professor selbst nicht mehr vermittelnd eingreifen kann. Doch Vista und Ansel waren nicht die einzigen Hyperions, und schon bald tritt ein weiterer Gegner auf den Plan, der ganz eigene Pläne verfolgt. Wer kann jetzt noch wem vertrauen? Mit irrwitziger Retro-Optik und ungehemmter Spielfreude versteht sich THE HYPERIONS als herrlich kratzbürstiger Gegenentwurf zu den hochglanzgelackten Comic-Blockbustern der letzten Jahre. Jon McDonalds vermischt in seiner Meta-Superheldensaga die knallbunte Krawallmentalität der frühen BATMAN-Verfilmungen mit frechem Humor und liebenswerten Effekten – und verhilft so ganz nebenbei seinen Hauptdarstellern Cary Elwes (SAW), Penelope Mitchell (THE VAMPIRE DIARIES) und COBRA KAI-Star Tanner Buchanan zu beindruckenden schauspielerischen Höchstleistungen. Pflichttermin für Comicfans!

Als es Professor Ruckus Mandulbaum zu Beginn der 60er Jahre gelingt, mit der von ihm erfundenen Titan Badge in normalen Menschen ganz und gar außergewöhnliche Kräfte zu erwecken, erschafft er das erste Superheldenteam und macht damit drei Kinder über Nacht zu Halbgöttern: den Hyperions. Knapp zwanzig Jahre später soll nun bereits die dritte Generation der von den Medien gefeierten Weltenretter ihren Platz im Rampenlicht einnehmen, doch Vista und Ansel, zwei der Original-Hyperions, für die Professor Mandulbaum einst wie ein Vater war, wollen sich nicht damit abfinden, ein Leben als sang- und klanglos abgesetzte Superhelden zu führen.

Jo has a good job, great friends, and is trying to get over a secret fling with an unbelievably attractive (and unbelievably unavailable) grad student. But she's also lonely. No one close to her knows the truth about who - or what - she is. Or that she must feed to survive, and she feeds on them - their disappointments, failures, and rejections. It's not a perfect system, but it works. Just. Until a handsome stranger - and descendant of Lust - shows up on campus and announces that Death has formally named Jo as his successor. Now she's both a powerful ally and a massive threat, and everyone she loves is a target. But Beecher is the one place that has ever felt like home, and Jo will do anything to protect it. Even if it means becoming the very thing she hates . . . Perfect for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Vampire Diaries, Nightshade , and Ilona Andrews, Death's Daughter is a deliciously dark and spicy urban fantasy , set at a New England university, where the only daughter of Death is named his successor, making her both a powerful ally and a massive target, all while she tries to make it through her final year at college . . . __________________________________ 'Delivers paranormal romance, wicked fun, and irresistible tension' LOGAN KARLIE 'Full of tension, dread, and spice, Death's Daughter is the urban fantasy resurrected!'
