    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    Edited by Chad Oppenheim and Gollin. Art by Fueyo. Contributor Mann, Frayling, Rosa, Murphy, and Valys.

    From Atlantis in The Spy Who Loved Me to Nathan Bateman's ultra-modern abode in Ex Machina, big-screen villains often live in architectural splendor. From a design standpoint, the villain's lair, as popularized in many of our favorite movies, is a stunning, sophisticated, envy-inducing expression of the warped drives and desires of its occupant.

    Lair celebrates and considers iconic villains' lairs from recent film history. Like evil itself, the abodes of big-screen villains are frequently compelling and seductive. They tend to be stunning, sophisticated, envy-inducing expressions of the warped drives and desires of their occupants.

    Lasher HC (1993 A Knopf Novel) By Anne Rice 1-1ST

    1st printing. By Anne Rice. From the day her first Vampire Chronicle was published, critics and readers–readers by the hundreds of thousands–have been mesmerized by the writings of Anne Rice. And with the publication of The Witching Hour, she created for us yet another world and legend, and both the chorus of praise and the multitudes of her readers once more increased. Now, Anne Rice brings us again–even more magically–into the midst of the dynasty of witches she introduced in The Witching Hour. At the center: the brilliant an beautiful Rowan Mayfair, queen of the coven, and Lasher, the darkly compelling demon whom she finds irresistible and from whose evil spell and vision she must now flee. She takes with her their terrifying and exquisite child, one of a brood of children born knowing, able to stand and talk on the first day. Rowans attempt to escape Lasher and his pursuit of her and their child are at the heart of this extraordinary saga. It is a novel that moves around the globe, backward and forward through time, and between the human and demonic worlds. Its many voices–of women, of men, of demons and angels, present and past–haunt and enchant us. With a dreamlike power, the novel draws us through twilight paths, telling a chillingly hypnotic story of occult and spiritual aspirations and passion. Hardcover, 592 pages, Text Only. Cover price $30.00.

    1st printing. By Seth Grahame-Smith. Seth Grahame-Smith returns to his vampire/horror/history roots in The Last American Vampire, the follow-up to Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Seth takes the sweeping, Howard Zinn approach to tell the alternative vampire history of 20th century America, as seen through the eyes of the vampire Henry Sturges, Abe's teacher. In Reconstruction-era America, Henry is searching for renewed purpose in the wake of his friend Abraham Lincoln's shocking death. Seth Grahame-Smith ingeniously weaves vampire history through Russia's October Revolution, the First and Second World Wars, and the JFK assassination. The final, elegiac act ends in 2001 with the vampire species in steep decline, and a world-weary Henry retreating from civilization. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 416 pages, Text Only.

It's been forty-two days since the monster apocalypse hit town and pretty much everyone ran away or got zombified. Average thirteen-year-old Jack Sullivan is holed up in his tree house, which he's armed to the teeth with catapults and a moat, not to mention video games and an endless supply of Oreos and Mountain Dew scavenged from abandoned stores. But Jack alone is no match for the hordes of Dozers and Winged Wretches and Zombies, and especially not for the eerily intelligent gargantuan menace known only as Blarg. Jack needs to build a team of whatever kids he can find, and whichever monsters will show him loyalty. With their help, Jack is going to slay Blarg, prove himself the ultimate post-apocalyptic action hero, and be average no longer! Can he do it?
