Someone has to find these warlocks, these conspiracy theorists, these demons that are operating to give Lucifer a perfect unchallenged platform to invade the earthly podium. They said the war looming is called the battle of Armageddon. Will the supernal help? Could Castrol fight it all? The war ahead, or are they expecting other Erewhonians to emerge? Unquestionably, Castrol is living in an undesirable time, even though he is supernaturally gifted by the Most Supreme. He was sought by Lucifer, fought by spiritual wickedness, and hunted by the Witch Kingdom and marine world. The Celestials are on his side. The laws guiding the universe are restricting. It is the battle of light and darkness.

How did beloved movie dogs become man-killers like Cujo and his cinematic pack-mates? For the first time, here is the fascinating history of canines in horror movies and why our best friends were (and are still) painted as malevolent. Stretching back into Classical mythology, treacherous hounds are found only sporadically in art and literature until the appearance of cinema's first horror dog, Sherlock Holmes' Hound of the Baskervilles. The story intensifies through World War II's K-9 Corps to the 1970s animal horror films, which broke social taboos about the "good dog" on screen and deliberately vilified certain breeds--sometimes even fluffy lapdogs. With behind-the-scenes insights from writers, directors, actors, and dog trainers, here are the flickering hounds of silent films through talkies and Technicolor, to the latest computer-generated brutes--the supernatural, rabid, laboratory-made, alien, feral, and trained killers. "Cave Canem (Beware the Dog)"--or as one seminal film warned, "They're not pets anymore."

"In a world without hope, in a land of darkness and despair, where chaos has replaced order, one boy leads a ragtag band of rebels against omnipotent forces." The forces of Chaos have defeated those of Order and recreated reality. The result is a dystopian multiverse ruled by the Dark Gods and policed by vampires who serve as their high priests. Into this Alterverse comes a heavensent African, gender-switching, interdimensional traveler who now finds himself permanently stuck in female form and tasked with the unenviable job of restoring reality. He/She must locate 17-year-old Alaric, son of the imprisoned witch Samantha Twitch and the banished demon Lucifer, and help him form a rebellion. But in this altered reality familiar faces are not who they may seem and some who had died now still live. Pandora and Cody's teenaged children Quinn and Ursula join Alaric's nascent resistance alongside the demon Asmodeus, Grand Duke of Hell Eligos, Nitrate (an emotive from the Dreamscape), Kita the kitsune, and a Kunoichi (Japanese female assassin) against overwhelming odds, as they seek not merely to change the world but the entire multiverse, and overthrow the gods themselves.
