Peter Straub Libri

A French Landing, tutto ormai è in moto. Qui, nessuno si attarda a letto, e dobbiamo muoverci rapidamente verso la conclusione del nostro giro. Un'enorme casa nera, avvolta in un'oscurità terrificante, si trova a French Landing, dove un misterioso assassino, noto come il Pescatore, attira e uccide i bambini, restituendoli a pezzi. Nel tranquillo Wisconsin, Jack Viaggiante, ex agente della Omicidi di Los Angeles, cerca serenità e riposo. Dopo gli omicidi, emergono strani "reperti": uova di pettirosso, piume e penne nere di corvi. Non ci sono spiegazioni razionali per il cannibalismo dell'assassino né per queste inquietanti manifestazioni. Gli investigatori locali, confusi e spaventati, chiedono aiuto a Jack, poiché il terrore si diffonde e la follia inizia a mietere vittime. Un segreto indecifrabile si cela in un manicomio dove è ricoverata la madre di una piccola vittima, impazzita dal dolore. La verità è nascosta in un Altrove che pochi hanno potuto visitare. Questo romanzo horror, scritto da due maestri del genere, coinvolge il lettore in un vortice di emozioni grazie alla visione di Straub e all'immaginazione di King.

In un sinistro motel della Florida un ragazzo angosciato e esitante tiene in ostaggio una bimba stranamente calma. In una sonnolenta cittadina dello stato di New York, cinque rispettabili signori fondano la Chowder Society e si riuniscono ogni due settimane per raccontarsi agghiaccianti storie di fantasmi, che non finiscono necessariamente quando terminano le riunioni. Un giorno, durante una festa in onore di un'attrice di passaggio nella cittadina, uno di loro muore in circostanze misteriose. In California un giovane insegnante è travolto da un'ossessiva passione per una delle sue allieve, una ragazza stupenda, ma ambigua e pericolosa... Quale filo lega questi luoghi, queste persone e questi strani fatti che sembrano recare il segno di presenze e fenomeni soprannaturali Sulla scia di illustri predecessori quali Poe, Hawthorne e Henry James, Peter Straub ci propone un romanzo insolito e straordinario. Un libro che, con sapiente tecnica narrativa, fonde il mondo e la mentalità dell'uomo contemporaneo con le ataviche paure e i tabù che ancora si agitano sotto la nostra vernice di razionalità.

Stupisce, ipnotizza, sgomenta e avvince, scrive il Publishers Weekly di questo romanzo di fantasia, avventura e terrore nato dalla collaborazione di due indiscussi maestri dell'horror. Un mondo misterioso e raccapricciante, celato in un'altra dimensione, è il luogo oscuro che un ragazzo deve attraversare nel suo viaggio terribile ed esaltante alla ricerca di un leggendario cristallo dotato di poteri magici. L'eterna lotta tra il bene e il male si ripete in un agghiacciante parossismo di paura e tensione.

Hampstead è una comune e tranquilla cittadina americana fino a quando, un giorno come un altro, senza preavviso, la fuga di un gas sperimentale da un vicino laboratorio ne cambia il destino per sempre: misteriose e raccapriccianti morti cominciano ad alternarsi a improvvise e inspiegabili sparizioni in un "clima" di crescente follia e allucinazione collettiva... Solo quattro persone, un uomo, una donna, un bambino e un vecchio, si rendono conto che dietro alla nube di gas si cela qualcosa di ben più pericoloso, qualcosa che ha già visitato in passato la cittadina reclamando ogni volta il suo tributo e provano ad opporvisi... ma potrebbe essere già troppo tardi...

Solo quattro uomini sanno chi è Koko. E devono fermarlo. Sono trascorsi ormai molti anni dalla fine della guerra in Vietnam quando quattro reduci appartenenti allo stesso plotone si ritrovano a Washington: un pediatra, un semplice operaio, un avvocato e uno scrittore. Non hanno nulla in comune. Il motivo del loro incontro è legato al passato, a un unico traumatico episodio, improvvisamente rievocato da un agghiacciante fatto di cronaca. A Singapore si sta verificando un'efferata catena di inspiegabili delitti firmati da un misterioso killer che lascia su ogni vittima, orribilmente sfigurata, una carta da gioco sulla quale è scarabocchiato il nome "Koko". Solo loro ne conoscono il significato e sanno che non hanno tempo da perdere. Dai cimiteri e bordelli dell'Estremo Oriente alla giungla umana di New York, daranno la caccia a qualcuno che è risorto dall'oscurità per uccidere, uccidere e uccidere ancora.

The spellbinding saga of The Talisman is now a stunning graphic novel, vividly illustrated by artist Tony Shasteen. Here’s a bold new look at the classic tale of treachery and betrayal that could only have sprung from the imaginations of master storytellers Stephen King and Peter Straub.In a run-down amusement park on a desolate beach in New Hampshire, thirteen-year-old Jack Sawyer is about to learn some hard truths—about his father’s death, about why he and his mother are on the run from his sinister uncle Morgan, and about the real nature of the mysterious realm Jack once called the Daydreams. Now, with help from his newfound friend Speedy Parker, this young man will reclaim his identity as Travellin Jack and make his first foray back into the Territories to retrieve the magical Talisman, an object of immense cosmic significance. Yet even more important to Jack, the Talisman holds the key to saving his mother’s life. In the Terrorities, where monsters lurk, evil watches, and an unbelievably precious prize awaits, Jack embarks upon a desperate quest to fulfill a destiny he never sought but cannot escape.The Talisman: The Road of Trials comprises Issues 0 through 5 of the thrilling comic book series and features original, never-before-seen material, including interviews and early sketches. Be warned: Once you’ve seen the Talisman, nothing will ever be the same.

Twenty years ago, a boy named Jack Sawyer travelled to a parallel universe called The Territories to save his mother and her Territories "twinner" from a premature and agonizing death that would have brought cataclysm to the other world. Now Jack is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in the nearly nonexistent hamlet of Tamarack, WI. He has no recollection of his adventures in the Territories and was compelled to leave the police force when an odd, happenstance event threatened to awaken those memories. When a series of gruesome murders occur in western Wisconsin that are reminiscent of those committed several decades earlier by a real-life madman named Albert Fish, the killer is dubbed "The Fisherman" and Jack's buddy, the local chief of police, begs Jack to help his inexperienced force find him. But is this merely the work of a disturbed individual, or has a mysterious and malignant force been unleashed in this quiet town? What causes Jack's inexplicable waking dreams, if that is what they are, of robins' eggs and red feathers? It's almost as if someone is trying to tell him something. As that message becomes increasingly impossible to ignore, Jack is drawn back to the Territories and to his own hidden past, where he may find the soul-strength to enter a terrifying house at the end of a deserted track of forest, there to encounter the obscene and ferocious evils sheltered within it.

Straub completes the Blue Rose trilogy with this searing novel of psychological terror. Tim Underhill and the brilliant and reclusive Tom Pasmore court ultimate destruction as they dare to look back to a dark past that holds the secret of evil which signs its name Blue Rose.

With a new Introduction by the author, Straub's classic tale of an evil lurking in the Vermont woods is beautifully repackaged with new cover art. Reissue.

'Stories' is a groundbreaking anthology that reinvigorates, expands, and redefines the limits of imaginative fiction and affords some writers in the world - from Peter Straub and Chuck Palahniuk to Roddy Doyle and Diana Wynne Jones, Stewart O'Nan and Joyce Carol Oates to Walter Mosley and Jodi Picoult - the opportunity to work together, defend their craft, and realign misconceptions. Gaiman, a literary magician whose acclaimed work defies easy categorization and transcends all boundaries, and 'master anthologist' ('Booklist') Sarrantonio personally invited, read, and selected all the stories in this collection, and their standard for this 'new literature of the imagination' is high. Joe Hill boldly aligns theme and form in his disturbing tale of a man's descent into evil in 'Devil on the Staircase'. In 'Catch and Release', Lawrence Block tells of a seasoned fisherman with a talent for catching a bite of another sort. Carolyn Parkhurst adds a dark twist to sibling rivalry in 'Unwell'. Joanne Harris weaves a tale of ancient gods in modern New York in 'Wildfire in Manhattan'. Vengeance is the heart of Richard Adams's 'The Knife'. Jeffery Deaver introduces a dedicated psychologist whose mission in life is to save people in 'The Therapist'. A chilling punishment befitting an unspeakable crime is at the dark heart of Neil Gaiman's novelette 'The Truth Is a Cave in the Black Mountains'.

Let the terror begin again in this "deliciously imaginative" (San Francisco Chronicle) novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Peter Straub. The quiet suburban town of Hampstead is threatened by two horrors. One is natural. The hideous unstoppable creation of man’s power gone mad. The other is not natural at all. And it makes the first look like child’s play... “Unspeakable horror…has ‘Bestseller’ written all over it.”—Los Angeles Times “Straub’s effects are quite spectacular…I was fairly awed by some of the more nightmarish scenes in Floating Dragon.”—The New York Times

Every year on his birthday, Ned Dunstan has a paralysing seizure in which he is forced to witness scenes of ruthless slaughter perpetrated by a mysterious figure in black whom he calls Mr X. - and again his birthday is fast approaching.

After a tragic accident which he barely survives, Tom Pasmore develops an obsession with death--an obsession which leads him to investigate two murders--one in the past and one in the present. And during his investigation, Pasmore learns more than anyone needs--or deserves--to know!

"One of the most chilling villains to come along since Hannibal Lecter." -- San Francisco Chronicle Suddenly terror engulfs Nora: She must defend herself against fantastic accusations even as a madman lies in wait. And when he springs, she will embark on a night journey that will put her victimhood to rest forever, dead or alive. . . .

A woman commits suicide for no apparent reason. A week later, her son – fifteen-year-old Mark Underhill – vanishes. His uncle, novelist Timothy Underhill, searches his hometown of Millhaven for clues that might help unravel this horrible dual mystery. He soon learns that a pedophilic murderer is on the loose in the vicinity, and that shortly before his mother’s suicide, Mark had become obsessed with an abandoned house where he imagined the killer might have taken refuge. No mere empty building, the house whispers from attic to basement with the echoes of a long-hidden true-life horror story, and Tim Underhill comes to fear that in investigating its unspeakable history, Mark stumbled across its last and greatest secret: a ghostly lost girl who may have coaxed the needy, suggestible boy into her mysterious domain.

In his latest soul-chilling novel, bestselling author Peter Straub tells of a famous children’s book author who, in the wake of a grotesque accident, realizes that the most basic facts of her existence, including her existence itself, have come into question. Willy Patrick, the respected author of the award-winning young-adult novel In the Night Room, thinks she is losing her mind–again. One day, she is drawn helplessly into the parking lot of a warehouse. She knows somehow that her daughter, Holly, is being held in the building, and she has an overwhelming need to rescue her. But what Willy knows is impossible, for her daughter is dead. On the same day, author Timothy Underhill, who has been struggling with a new book about a troubled young woman, is confronted with the ghost of his nine-year-old sister, April. Soon after, he begins to receive eerie, fragmented e-mails that he finally realizes are from people he knew in his youth–people now dead. Like his sister, they want urgently to tell him something. When Willy and Timothy meet, the frightening parallels between Willy’s tragic loss and the story in Tim’s manuscript suggest that they must join forces to confront the evils surrounding them.

Bob Steele is a disillusioned New York detective out for redemption and to him redemption means a one-man crusade to stop Fielding Bandolier.
