PREDATORY

People say that nature is
Red in tooth and claw,
Each species
Dines upon another,
An ecosystem without flaw, but
The apex of the pyramid,
Our sister and our brother,
Remain the only animals, that
Yearn to prey upon each other.

The cover of The Devil in the Detail: A Collection of Devilishly Good Short Stories by John Pitman showing a young girl with black wings crouching on the steps of a church. From gothic horror to urban myth, from dark fantasy to vengeful spirits, this collection of twisted tales from the author of The Moon Dancers offers an intriguing blend of the real and the supernatural that will keep you reading well into the night. In the pages of this slim volume you will meet a London publisher who literally will do anything for love, a pair of metal detectorists who dig up more than they bargain for, a student intent on having the time of his life, and a cat who is not quite what she seems. And that’s not to mention the ghoulish calcéophile and the Demon King himself. So, settle yourself down in your favourite chair and prepare for a bumpy ride!

'I saw the Prince of Darkness, with his Staff,
Standing bare-headed by the Cenotaph:
Unostentatious and respectful, there
He stood, and offered up the following prayer.
‘Make them forget, O Lord, what this Memorial
Means; their discredited ideas revive'

Good advice!

The Mirror of Diana
In which our hero finds himself fleeing to Italy where he encounters prurient princes, pagan rituals, brutal banditti, and bad Lord Byron.
It's Rear Admiral Roger Ellis at his brilliantly bawdy best!

Scottish poet, Robert Burns, asking for a haggis

Poetry?

Percy Bysshe
Ordered the fish,
Elizabeth Barrett
Tried boiled beef and carrots, but
Robert Burns, well he just
Yearned, for a haggis.

OK, Halloween's over but this'll do just as well for Christmas!

Kicking off her shoes, she lifted one dainty foot up onto the box at the end of the bed and grasped the hem of her skirts, raising them up so that she might remove the ribbon that tied her stocking and slowly roll that garment over her knee
