The Best Aliens in Science Fiction Books
An article about the best aliens in SF written by yours truly:
Victorian Fashion Notebook
The perfect gift item for a costumer, steampunk lover, or history buff, this lovely journal is decorated with 120 period fashion illustrations from 1878-1910, appearing in chronological order so you can watch as fashion evolves, page by page. Lined, antique-colored pages have enough room to record your thoughts, poetry, recipes, or love spells.
Edwardian Fashion in Photographs
170 beautfully detailed photographs of stylish women 1903-1909, including 21 in color. A great resource for costumers and novelists.
Ettiquette and the Language of Flowers
Reprint of an 1883 etiquette guide, complete with lavish Victorian decorations. Great gift item.
The Dreaming Kind Paperback
THE DREAMING KIND is now in paperback.
The Blood Sacrifice Complex
Celia has reprinted a classic work on human sacrifice and cannibalism, THE BLOOD SACRIFICE COMPLEX. It’s a great resource for world-builders, discussing the reasons such practices appear and what kinds of societies support them, but it was impossible to find a copy of, so she has produced one. The paperback can be ordered from Amazon.
The Dreaming Kind
From humorous to dark, witty to lyrical, this collection of eight short stories (plus a few extra treats) showcases the versatile talent of one of the genre’s most creative writers. If you’re not already a fan of C. S. Friedman, you soon will be. And if you’re already a fan, you’ll enjoy reading these rarely-seen shorter works.
