The next thrilling chapter in New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super-agent Eddie Drood. The name’s Drood. Eddie Drood. And believe me, I wish to hell it wasn’t. Being part of an enigmatic, fractious family who’ve been keeping humanity safe from the world’s more horrifying elements is hard enough. But when the Matriarch of the clan is murdered, it’s a none-for-all, all-for-themselves family feud. And as usual, yours truly is suspect numero uno. Yeah, blood is thinner than water around here, folks. Worse still, second in line for slaughter is my main lady, the magical Molly Metcalfe. So, there’s not much to it except to go on the run and hunt down the true killer. Or should I say killers? Because it turns out there’s another kind of family out there. Think of them as the anti-Droods. They’ve been meddling with mankind in the worst sort of way for thousands of years. Because they’re apparently immortal. They’re also atrociously strong. And now they’ve decided that it’s time for the Droods to go bye-bye. Maybe I should just go home and hug it out with the family...

A classic in the Bukowski poetry canon, Love Is a Dog from Hell is a raw, lyrical, exploration of the exigencies, heartbreaks, and limits of love. A book that captures the Dirty Old Man of American letters at his fiercest and most vulnerable, on a subject that hits home with all of us. Charles Bukowski was a man of intense emotions, someone an editor once called a “passionate madman.” Alternating between tough and gentle, sensitive and gritty, Bukowski lays bare the myriad facets of love—its selfishness and its narcissism, its randomness, its mystery and its misery, and, ultimately, its true joyfulness, endurance, and redemptive power. "there is a loneliness in this world so great that you can see it in the slow movement of the hands of a clock."
