All aboard . . . thats prepared to die! World-renowned authors and brothers Reynald and Willoughby Chalmers are back in this unexpectedly gruesome seafaring mystery where murder becomes an inconvenient, most unwelcome guest upon the elegantly refurbished clipper ship Waltzing Matilda. In The Murdery Delicious High Seas Horror, the sequel to the compelling The Murdery Delicious Hamwich Gumm Mystery, the Chalmers brothers and their wives find themselves quite stranded at sea, swirling around a tempestuous cast of unforgettable, highly fishy fellow luminaries. What was intended to be a luxurious passage to the Cte dAzur becomes instead a bloody plunge into a crashing wave of treachery and lies. The unsuspecting passengers soon discover themselves knotted together by old secrets that only raise further finger-pointing questions. Who on the ship will be able to keep their heads above water? And who will become fish food? In any case, all the members aboard find the Waltzing Matilda to be quite a fearsome kettle of fish indeed!

A World Fantasy Award Nominee! The award-winning and critically-acclaimed master of horror returns with a pair of chilling tales that examine the violence and depravity of the human condition. Bringing together his acclaimed novella The Sea Dreams It Is the Sky and an all-new short novel My Heart Struck Sorrow, John Hornor Jacobs turns his fertile imagination to the evil that breeds within the human soul. A brilliant mix of the psychological and supernatural, blending the acute insight of Roberto Bolaño and the eerie imagination of H. P. Lovecraft, The Sea Dreams It Is the Sky examines life in a South American dictatorship. Centered on the journal of a poet-in-exile and his failed attempts at translating a maddening text, it is told by a young woman trying to come to grips with a country that nearly devoured itself. In My Heart Struck Sorrow, a librarian discovers a recording from the Deep South—which may be the musical stylings of the Devil himself. Breathtaking and haunting, A Lush and Seething Hell is a terrifying and exhilarating journey into the darkness, an odyssey into the deepest reaches of ourselves that compels us to confront secrets best left hidden.
