OMENS is a haunting collection of short stories for the discriminating horror fiction enthusiast. The tales are reminiscent of the work of Robert Aickman, relying moreso on atmosphere \u0026amp; imagery to convey the sense of the unknown and unexplained, and also of the works of Thomas Ligotti, conveying an unsettling sense of the unimagineable.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49940526661905,"sku":"CIN0978991125G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50949766447377,"sku":"GOR010248465","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51010188640529,"sku":"NIN9780978991128","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52408210981137,"sku":"NLS9780978991128","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0978991125.jpg?v=1751109628"},{"product_id":"at-fear-s-altar-book-richard-gavin-9781614980261","title":"At Fear's Altar","description":"\u003cp\u003eCanadian author Richard Gavin has established himself as a leading contemporary writer of weird fiction. His richly nuanced prose style, his imaginative range, and his shrewdness in the portrayal of character and domestic conflict make his tales far more than mere shudder-coining.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this fourth collection of short stories and novelettes, Gavin again casts a wide imaginative net, from haunted Canadian woodlands to the carnivorous mesas of the American frontier, from Lovecraft's New England to the spirit traditions of Japan. Of the dozen stories included in this book, eight are previously unpublished--a rich new feast of terror for devotees of a writer who works in the tradition of Poe, Machen, Blackwood, and Ligotti. Richard Gavin is the author of three previous short story collections, \u003cem\u003e Charnel Wine\u003c\/em\u003e (2004), \u003cem\u003eOmens\u003c\/em\u003e (2007), and \u003cem\u003eThe Darkly Splendid Realm\u003c\/em\u003e (2009).

From the severed appendage of the thief that becomes the Hand of Glory to the fallen seed that spawns the mandrake root, the Hanging Place is awash in the sinistral ambiance of authentic Sorcery.  Richard Gavin weaves together threads of folklore, spiritism, and occult philosophy to create a tapestry of grim vitality. The Moribund Portal: Spectral Resonance and the Numen of the Gallows examines the subtle yet potent symbiosis that exists between the incarnate world and the realm of the Dead. This book's exploration of the liminal space between firmament and earth, where Odin perceived the runes and Christ witnessed the celestial kingdom, is designed to illuminate the macabre portal through which one may glimpse the Otherworld.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50394713719057,"sku":"CIN1945147245G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51056603234577,"sku":"NIN9781945147241","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1945147245.jpg?v=1751124806"},{"product_id":"sylvan-dread-book-richard-gavin-9781945147005","title":"Sylvan Dread","description":"From the preeminent author of At Fear's Altar and the occult manifesto The Benighted Pathcomes Sylvan Dread, Richard Gavin's fifth collection of preternatural tales. Bound within are thirteen nightmares exploring the Sinister Pastoral, the dominion which prevails at the intersection of mortal reckoning and the primoridum of malevolent Nature.  As a meditation on the forces of predation and parasitism, monstrous fecundity and decay, and those hidden folk who occupy the spaces between the branches, Sylvan Dread evokes the primeval wood - the place where all dreams and nightmares begin. In this isolate copse we witness the excavation of abominations long earthbound, the twilight of the rational, and the forgotten violence of the Dionysian Rite.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50949767102737,"sku":"GOR009900531","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51056650092817,"sku":"NIN9781945147005","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51765813543185,"sku":"CIN1945147008G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52057641877777,"sku":"CIN1945147008VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1945147008.jpg?v=1751414348"},{"product_id":"grotesquerie-book-richard-gavin-9781988964225","title":"Grotesquerie","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWelcome to Richard Gavin's grotesquerie, where fear and faith converge in eerie and nightmarish tales of transcendent horror from a truly visionary writer.
