What do you do when in the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust the only way to survive is to kill or be killed? Two strangers, a man and a woman, come across each other in a hostile world where every life hangs by the thread. Instead of killing each other they decide to strike up a purely sexual relationship yet never losing the sight of their weapons. But things can never go as per plan when lust for blood runs higher than carnal lust. Will they survive? Or will they suffer the same gory end as that of the other victim who was murdered by the hero earlier? Interestingly the term "The Night of the Long Knives", was in reality, a military purge known as the Operation Hummingbird that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934, when the Nazi regime carried out a series of political extrajudicial executions intended to consolidate Hitler's absolute hold on power in Germany.

Fritz Reuter Leiber Jr. (December 24, 1910-September 5, 1992) was an influential American writer of fantasy, horror and science fiction. He was also an expert chess player and a champion fencer. Leiber (pronounced Lie-ber) married Jonquil Stephens on January 16, 1936, and their son Justin Leiber was born in 1938. Jonquil's death in 1969 precipitated a three-year bout of alcoholism, but he returned to his original form with a fantasy novel set in modern-day San Francisco, Our Lady of Darkness - serialized in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction as "The Pale Brown Thing" (1977) - in which cities were the breeding grounds for new types of elementals called paramentals, summonable by the dark art of megapolisomancy, with such activities centering around the Transamerica Pyramid. Our Lady of Darkness won the World Fantasy Award.

The Night of the Long Knives is a thrilling post-nuclear dystopian novel by Fritz Leiber. Deathland is a post-apocalyptic nuclear desert where "kill or be killed is the law of the land." Dystopian Classic Editions publishes works of dystopian and utopian literature that have survived through the generations and been recognized as classics. A dystopian society is an imagined society in which the people are oppressed, however the government propagandizes the society as being a utopia or a perfect society. Typical themes in dystopian literature include public mistrust, police states, and overall unpleasantness for the citizens. Authors of dystopian works strive to present a worst-case scenario and negative depiction of the way things are in the story so as to make a criticism about a current situation in society and to call for a change. Each Dystopian Classic Edition selected for publication presents such a story.
Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. The first novel is by an author known for his vivid imagination and wild tales, Don Wilcox. “Dwellers of the Deep” is a story about strange creatures from the depths of the ocean. Bill Pierce and Bea Riley were a renown diving team, known all over the world for their amazing feats from diving boards and waterfalls. But on an ocean cruise one sunny afternoon, Pierce was stunned to see his partner and girlfriend pulled overboard by weird horse-fish creatures. He followed them into the depths below and discovered a strange, secret civilization, known only to a handful of surface people. For this was the world of two different races, the spiny-men and the horse-fish. A world that seemed to hold one certainty for both Bill and Bea—neither one would even return to the surface world alive. Join “the mad man” Don Wilcox for another excursion into his strange worlds of science fiction escapism. The second novel “Night of the Long Knives,” is an unpleasant vision of the future by Fritz Leiber. It was a grim place indeed. Earth was now a horrifying post-apocalyptic world where fate could be cruel and life was often very short. Every man struggled mightily to survive from one day to the next and often the only real protection lay in one’s ability to make quick, unhesitating use of a knife or a gun. In this forlorn world, three drifters came together in a life-starved area known only as “the Deathlands,” where multi-colored radioactive dust was often too much in evidence. However, when the three stumbled across a crashed plane and its pilot, there suddenly seemed to be a light of hope. Could the plane be repaired? Was there a chance of freedom from the radioactive wastelands that trapped them?
