Beyond the Wall of Sleep
￥9.00
"Beyond the Wall of Sleep" is a science fiction short story by American writer H. P. Lovecraft, written in 1919 and first published in the amateur publication Pine Cones in October 1919. An intern in a mental hospital relates his experience with Joe Slater, an inmate who died at the facility a few weeks after being confined as a criminally insane murderer. He describes Slater as a "typical denizen of the Catskill Mountain region, who corresponds exactly with the 'white trash' of the South", for whom "laws and morals are nonexistent" and whose "general mental status is probably below that of any other native American people".

Le Chant de l'amour triomphant
￥8.82
A la même époque, il y avait à Ferrare une jeune damoiselle du nom de Valéria. Elle passait pour être l'une des plus grandes beautés de la ville, encore qu'on ne la v?t guère, car elle menait un genre de vie fort retiré et ne sortait de chez elle que pour se rendre à l'église, ou à la promenade, les jours de fête. Elle habitait avec sa mère, une veuve noble, mais peu fortunée, dont elle était l'unique enfant. Quiconque la croisait dans la rue, éprouvait aussit?t un sentiment d'involontaire surprise, due à sa beauté, et de tendre respect, inspiré par sa modestie : la jeune fille semblait ne pas se rendre compte du charme qui émanait de toute sa personne.
Assez ! Extrait du journal d'un peintre défunt
￥8.82
Assez ! me disais-je à moi-même, en gravissant péniblement le flanc d’une montagne escarpée qui s’élevait depuis les rives d’un fleuve paisible. Assez ! me répétai-je, en humant l’haleine résineuse d’un bosquet de sapins, particulièrement odorante dans la fracheur du crépuscule… Assez ! me dis-je de nouveau en m’asseyant sur un tertre moussu qui surplombait le fleuve, les yeux fixés sur les vagues sombres et paresseuses que dominaient les tiges vert clair des joncs… Assez,assez remué, assez erré : il est temps de rentrer en soi-même, de se prendre la tête à deux mains, et d’ordonner à son cur de ne plus battre.
Fant?mes
￥8.82
Je voulus discerner les traits de la femme mystérieuse, mais un tremblement involontaire me parcourut tout entier et une bouffée d'air glacé me frappa au visage. Je n'étais plus couché, mais assis sur mon séant, et, à l'endroit où j'avais cru apercevoir la vision, il n'y avait plus qu'une longue raie de lumière blanche, projetée par la lune.
Nothing

A woman tries in vain to convince those around her that the world is ending. Is she right…or is she losing her mind?
Fathers and Sons
￥8.82
When a young graduate returns home he is accompanied, much to his father and uncle's discomfort, by a strange friend "who doesn't acknowledge any authorities, who doesn't accept a single principle on faith." Turgenev's masterpiece of generational conflict shocked Russian society when it was published in 1862 and continues today to seem as fresh and outspoken as it did to those who first encountered its nihilistic hero.
Symphony
￥8.09
Aurora Award Finalist.? The colony ship, The Last Chance, has fled a plague-poisoned Earth with the remnants of the human race. Launched before completion of its biosphere, the ship is only partly self-sustaining. Humanity has to find a new home—and time is running out. It isn’t called The Last Chance for nothing. When they find the planet, it seems a dream come true. Earth-like, breathable atmosphere, unpopulated. They name it Aurora, for the beauty that dances in its skies. At least, it had seemed beautiful at the time. Now they aren’t so sure. Now people are dying. Gar Franck is the ship’s communication expert. When signs point to a non-human intelligence on the planet, Gar becomes the key to communicating with it. But how can he communicate with an alien being when he can’t even talk to his autistic son, Anton, or his increasingly distant wife, Clara? "There are two stories in "Symphony"...both converge in a spectacular, explosive finale. Smith's prose is poetic and evocative. He creates an intricate fabric of light, color, and sound with effortless flair. The story’s fluid style and the abundance of complex, wrenching emotions [make this] another recommended story in this issue." —Eugie Foster and Marsha Sisolak, Tangent Online "A strong SF-nal story about a 'sentient light symphony' that objects to humans colonizing 'its planet.' How would you communicate with such and how would it react to a baby who lacks all 'human baggage' are some of the issues addressed here. (A+)" —Fantasy Book Critic
The Dancer at the Red Door
￥8.09
Aurora Award Finalist.? Alexander King has everything--wealth, power, a business empire over which he rules. But lately, the corporate game in which he excels has lost its thrill for him. He needs a new game. And then, on the crowded streets of Toronto, in the dead cold of winter, she appears before him. The Dancer. Achingly beautiful, half-naked, and dancing to a song that only she and King seem to hear, she becomes King’s new obsession, an obsession that draws him into a journey through a secret world hidden within the city he thought he knew…and to a very special club. "'The Dancer at the Red Door,' with its mix of oblique horror, urban fantasy, and monsters ... recalls British horror novelist Clive Barker at his most disturbingly fanciful." —Quill and Quire "An excellent story … urban fantasy at its best." —Fantasy Book Critic "...intriguing meditation on escapism...evoking Gaiman's Neverwhere, the obligatory helping of Lovecraft, plus a touch of something like Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut" —Strange Horizons "Just as the song of the city leads King throughout his journey, so too does it lead the reader throughout Douglas Smith's beautifully crafted 'The Dancer at the Red Door.' The writing is lean and evocative; every element of the story works double-time as setting informs character, action creates mood, and nothing is superfluous. The song becomes a living, breathing creature which, more so than hearing, I could feel viscerally as I read Doug's wonderful story. Highly, highly recommended." —Rainbow Dragon Recommends
The Last Ride
￥8.09
Vaya is an immortal Valkyrie and favorite daughter of Odin All Father, sworn to carry dead heroes from the battlefields of Earth to live forever in Valhalla. One day, she intervenes on the battlefield to save the life of a soldier who has captured her heart, and is forced by Odin to choose between immortality and the man she loves. Vaya chooses love, not knowing that the hardest choice still lies ahead of her. "…exemplifies the best elements of Douglas Smith’s writing. A Valkyrie falls for her hero, gives up her immortality for him then has to make that inevitable and awful choice afterwards. As always, even for such a brief time, there is so much life in these characters. I don’t bother to marvel at how quickly I come to care for Douglas Smith’s people anymore, it’s a given." —SF Crowsnest Reviews "A gripping portrayal of Vaya, a Valkyrie, and the ultimate sacrifices one makes for love." —SFRevu
