1st printing. By Nancy Holder and Jeff Mariotte. Cordelia Chase is accustomed to being rocked by excruciating visions courtesy of the Powers That Be, but that doesn't mean that she is impervious to them. She is particularly disturbed to be visited with the image of someone she knows. It's Faith -- whose recent incarceration, it would seem, is the least of her problems. Angel wastes no time in heading off to jail to check on the once-rogue warrior, who admits to having noticed various creepies -- of the supernatural, rather than criminal, variety -- going bump in the night. She can't really investigate thoroughly for fear of giving away her status as Slayer to her fellow inmates. The picture becomes clearer when Chaz Escobar, a onetime game hunter, arrives at Angel Investigations. He explains that he is searching for his wife, Marianna, a vampire. He had been working on the cure for her vampirism on a small, distant island -- but she escaped. Chaz suspects her for being the monster harassing Faith. When Faith is magickally sprung from jail -- straight into Marianna's clutches -- Angel's Team and Chaz are off to Fantasy Island. Once there, however, they discover that Chaz's secondary goal is to rid the world of vampires -- even those with a soul. If Angel aligns himself with Chaz even to the point of self-sacrifice, his atonement will truly be complete. But before the two can retrieve the magickal chalice required for the destruction of vampires, they find themselves prey of a species of questionable evolution -- orchestrated by creatures of true evil: the lawyers of Wolfram & Hart. Hardcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8 1/2-in., 378 pages, Text Only. Cover price $17.95.

1st printing. By George "The Animal" Steele and Jim Evans. Foreword by Cowboy Bill Watts. A stand-out character in an entertainment industry where persona is everything, George The Animal Steele shares how he balanced his real life as Jim Myers, a highly respected high school teacher and coach, with the green tongued, hairy backed, turnbuckle eating wrestling icon he was in the ring. The memoir delves into the golden era of wrestling in the 1970s and 1980s and his entry into the World Wrestling Federation where he earned a spot in professional wrestling history despite only speaking in animal-like grunts. In reality, the educated man that overcame his struggles with dyslexia and Crohns Disease was a father and an inspiration to many of his students and players, and the dichotomous personalities that marked this much-loved mans life are explored in his own words. The book is filled with nostalgic and humorous anecdotes about the whirlwind life of wrestling alongside such notables as Hulk Hogan and Bruno Sammartino, both in and out of the ring. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 224 pages, Text. Cover price $24.95.
