Publisher's summary
Discover the Mysteries:
Linked only to the purest, ancient Irish bloodlines, the Banshee weaves an intricate web of familial doom. From chilling wails in moonlit gardens to sinister laughter echoing in grand old family homes, every tale is saturated with the tension and terror that come only from centuries-old curses. As ancient Irish families migrate, these spectral harbingers of death follow, proving no place is too far to escape their plaintive cries. Haunting Encounters:
- Sympathetic Spirits: Experience the sorrowful cries of "Friendly Banshees," mourning impending deaths with a haunting beauty.
- Malevolent Wraiths: Face the terrifying specter of "Hateful Banshees," their gnarled figures and chilling laughs prophesying doom.
- Personal Recounts: Journey with the narrator through their own spine-tingling encounters and uncover tales passed down through generations, each more unsettling than the last.
Profoundly atmospheric, this book meticulously blends elements of historical recounting with gothic horror, making it a must-read for aficionados of folklore and the supernatural. Whether recounting tales from the emerald hills of Ireland, the wild expanses of Canada, or the scenic shores of Italy, *The Irish Banshee* invokes a timeless terror.
Highlighting Lore and Mystery:
Rich in cultural heritage, this narrative not only offers gripping supernatural tales but also provides a poignant glimpse into the legends that shape Irish identity. While theoretical explanations range from sorcery and ancient curses to otherworldly spirits, the consistent theme is the Banshee’s eerie, prophetic presence. For those who adore tales of hauntings, supernatural folklore, and the persistent presence of death through generations, this collection promises a journey into the dark heart of Irish legends.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.
