A music journalist on tour with a metal band finds herself on the road to hell in this horror romance by the New York Times bestselling author of The Pact. It’s the summer of 1974 and all Dawn Emerson wants to do is win back her ex-boyfriend and become the best damn music journalist at Central Washington State College. But all her plans are left in the dust when Creem Magazine offers her a dream assignment: to go on the road with the up-and-coming metal band, Hybrid. Dawn looks forward to experiencing life from the other side of the stage, and maybe cracking the wild enigma that is guitarist Sage Knightly. Instead, Dawn finds herself on a rickety tour bus filled with ego-maniacs, band politics and a whole lot of sex, drugs and rock n’ roll. And then the real nightmare begins… When monsters start showing up in dressing rooms and some of Sage’s groupies become increasingly strange and dangerous, Dawn discovers the band is not only going places—they’re going straight to Hell. And Dawn has a backstage pass.
For most of the twentieth century tin was fundamental for both warfare and welfare. The importance of tin is most powerfully represented by the tin can - an invention which created a revolution in food preservation and helped feed both the armies of the great powers and the masses of the new urban society. The trouble with tin was that economically viable deposits of the metal could only be found in a few regions of the world, predominantly in the southern hemisphere, while the main centers of consumption were in the industrialized north. The tin trade was therefore a highly politically charged economy in which states and private enterprise competed and cooperated to assert control over deposits, smelters and markets. Tin provides a particularly telling illustration of how the interactions of business and governments shape the evolution of the global economic trade; the tin industry has experienced extensive state intervention during times of war, encompasses intense competition and cartelization, and has seen industry centers both thrive and fail in the wake of decolonization. The history of the international tin industry reveals the complex interactions and interdependencies between local actors and international networks, decolonization and globalization, as well as government foreign policies and entrepreneurial tactics. By highlighting the global struggles for control and the constantly shifting economic, geographical and political constellations within one specific industry, this collection of essays brings the state back into business history, and the firm into the history of international relations.
Two novels from the New York Times–bestselling author of Discretion that put fans in the front row in a battle for souls! It’s sex, drugs, rock n’ roll . . . but so much more in Karina Halle’s shocking novels. In The Devil’s Metal, Dawn Emerson writes for Creem Magazine because it knows rock better than any other music rag out there. She follows the band Hybrid because their fans are the most devoted, the most obsessive, the most fanatical. To get the article that will make her career, she’ll get on a tour bus that is on its way straight to hell, driven by charismatic guitarist Sage Knightly, who gives Dawn the backstage pass that could be her last. The Indie Bookshelf called it “an absolute trip that will leave you feeling like you were right there on the tour bus.” In The Devil’s Reprise, Dawn and Sage are reunited on his first solo tour. But the only thing more daunting than making a deal with the devil is discovering that you might not be able to pay it back.
Ninety-five years ago the enormous interplanetary space vehicle, the Pacifica, with a numerous crew, suddenly and inexplicably disappeared as it neared the planet Pluto. None of the probes directed towards the planet after the disaster found any evidence that the vessel and its crew had ever existed. Now, a century later, the wreck of the huge ship has been sighted, lying shrouded in the hazy-black starlight on the Plutonian surface. A shuttle has been fitted for the dangerous journey to the seventh planet, and with three crewmembers aboard, has made the first attempt to reach Pluto since the loss of the Pacifica. As the shuttle approaches the planet, it also 'suddenly and inexplicably' disappears and is lost. Although the crew of three is believed to have perished, they have not, and will carry on with their mission: to determine how the Pacifica met its fate. The truth, however, may be found only beyond reason, or even beyond imagination, and the three astronauts may wish that they never sought answer to this great mystery.
Definitive biography of the Polish black metal band Behemoth
Few fields of academic research are surrounded by so many misunderstandings and misconceptions as the study of Western esotericism. For twenty years now, the Centre for History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents (University of Amsterdam) has been at the forefront of international scholarship in this domain. This anniversary volume seeks to make the modern study of Western esotericism more widely known beyond specialist circles, while addressing a range of misconceptions, biases, and prejudices that still tend to surround it. Thirty major scholars in the field respond to questions about a wide range of unfamiliar ideas, traditions, practices, problems, and personalities that are central to the field. By challenging many taken-for-granted assumptions about religion, science, philosophy, and the arts, this volume demonstrates why the modern study of esotericism leads us to reconsider much that we thought we knew about the story of Western culture.
A music reporter faces personal demons on a rock star’s European tour in this paranormal romance by the New York Times bestselling author of Devil’s Metal. For budding music journalist Dawn Emerson, going on tour with the metal band Hybrid was the gig of her dreams. But when demonic forces drove the tour bus straight to Hell, she and guitarist Sage Knightly barely escaped alive. Now, Sage invites Dawn to accompany him on his first solo tour across Europe and write about it for Creem Magazine. But like the last tour, the devil is in the details—and demons are lurking everywhere. Sage is spiraling toward self-destruction and Dawn isn’t sure if she’s the right person to save him. Aside from picking up the pieces of their burgeoning relationship, they have to negotiate the mysterious new photographer assigned to Dawn’s story, as well as vindictive promoters and demonic groupies they thought they’d never see again. Because this time, it’s Dawn who made a deal with the devil. And the only thing worse than having to uphold a bargain with the prince of darkness is not remembering how you’re supposed to pay it back.
This important book from a Pulitzer Prize finalist follows the brutal journey a group of men take to cross the Mexican border: "the single most compelling, lucid, and lyrical contemporary account of the absurdity of U.S. border policy" (The Atlantic). In May 2001, a group of men attempted to cross the Mexican border into the desert of southern Arizona, through the deadliest region of the continent, the "Devil's Highway." Three years later, Luis Alberto Urrea wrote about what happened to them. The result was a national bestseller, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, a "book of the year" in multiple newspapers, and a work proclaimed as a modern American classic.
