All
ordered copies have now been posted and should be arriving in the next week or
two/three all being well ~ sometimes, however, the post can, unfortunately, be more
than a little uneven.
GHOSTLY
QUARTERS by C.E. WARD is already SOLD OUT.
Many
thanks, everyone, for your continued support.
Cheers,
Robert.
Sarob Press is spookily delighted to present a new volume of ghost stories by C.E. Ward. Stories of dark deeds, supernatural evils, weird black magic and of terrible and dread-filled ghostly vengeance. C.E. Ward is, possibly, one of the most Jamesian of authors writing today (he is a life-long admirer of M.R. James and of all things darkly supernatural and ghostly), and his stories are replete with well researched historical detail and a brooding, chilling and (dare I say again) ghostly atmosphere… so here are four wholly original and all new lengthy tales (the four ‘quarters’) to best enjoy, perhaps, late at night (preferably, if one’s eyes allow, by candlelight, before a roaring log fire and with a glass of something rather particular to hand). Mr Ward is the author of the Sarob Press volumes, Vengeful Ghosts, Seven Ghosts and One Other, Malevolent Visitants, Legionnaire and An Unheavenly Host.
Stories: “Promenade Walk (19,259 words)” “Some Episodes of a Family History (16,761 words)” “Where His Feet Pass (17,725 words)” & “Warlock’s End (19,225 words)”
[All
four stories are previously unpublished and were written expressly for this
volume]

Hurrah!
“Notes from the Shadows” was SOLD OUT
on publication.
Thanks again everyone for your
continued support.
Cheers, Robert.
Creepy, dank canal pathways, bleak countryside and urban decay, Jamesian terrors, the terrible dark power of music, black magic and weird folk horrors... nine stories to chill the bones... (eight were originally published between 2001 and 2023 and the novella ‘The Notes’ was written expressly and is wholly original to this volume).
Mr Harman’s characters appear doomed, unable
to escape the creeping, dreadful horrors that pursue, haunt or lurk in the
shadows…
Paul Lowe has (once again) provided a quite exceptional and brilliant
dust jacket painting…

Full
details at Paul’s facebook page here.
Cheers,

Thanks,
everyone, for your support… very sorry if you’ve been unlucky enough to miss
out.

Once again Rosemary Pardoe will edit and introduce what (she says) might be her final Ghosts & Scholars anthology (the seventh!). A good place to finish with the volume Ro has always wanted to do.
Thirteen
devilishly eerie tales where the authors have taken English landscapes and the
strange figures, images and patterns often depicted and carved thereon as
inspiration for truly uncanny and weird histories… Six of the stories have been selected from (mainly) small press
publications and seven are brand new and were written expressly for this volume
(including one by the editor herself ~ the first Jane Bradshawe story in almost
forty years).
The reprints:
“The Madness of a Chalk Giant” by Colin Insole. “Figures on a Hillside”
by Steve Duffy. “The Pharisees’ Glass” by R.B. Russell. “Chalk” by Katherine
Haynes. “The Regulars” by David Longhorn. “All I Ever See” by Mike Chinn.
The ‘new’ stories:
“The White Round” by John Howard. “Lob Top” by Christopher Harman. “And
Then There’s Place-Name Studies” by John Whitbourn. “The Scouring” by Carole
Tyrrell. “Dyrehill Park” by C.E. Ward. “The Lickey Beast” by David A. Sutton
and “The Lady and the Unicorn” by Mary Ann Allen (aka Rosemary Pardoe).
Paul Lowe has (once again) provided a quite
exceptional and brilliant dust jacket painting and a pretty scary black &
white frontispiece.
