Can it ever be fun to learn about grammar? IsnÕt that an oxymoron? But how about the historical traditions behind grammar? What is the purpose of grammar? How does modern grammar differ from yesterdayÕs grammar? Allowing individuals to actually think about the way they speak and the aspects which comprise their everyday language is perhaps the most basic and most effective way to begin language analysis. By drawing on the daily use of language, this book explores the cultural significance of so-called "traditional" grammar as a set of tools and terms; and gives readers a basic understanding of the modern linguistic view of language as a rule-governed system. The focus throughout is on language analysis that readers will find both relevant and interesting. Language is explored as a system of universal qualities, dynamic and transforming and language study as the impetus that pushes people to critically rethink their assumptions about language. Anyone interested in improving their mastery of the English language.

In six months, Jeff Rogers had lost close to a thousand head of Smokestack beef, and the situation was growing desperate, but to side him Jeff had only his segundo Buck Hofman and half-a-dozen hands. Tough men in a tough country, the small but valiant crew set out to force a showdown. In the center of the ruckus were two women: the demure blonde Mickie O'Fanning; and a brunette whose beauty was as bright and comforting as a desert campfire.

HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW... Life is fleeting. Things happen quickly. One moment you're at the office, or maybe sitting in your living room; more of the same old, same old. And the next...You're gone. Forever.  For the brave, Dark Arts Books presents sixteen tales of those sudden moments when life goes from light to dark, laughing to screaming, bad to worse. Scary to...unspeakable.  Four of horror's brightest talents light up the corners, illuminate the shadows and show you ready or not what's there in the dark, where if you're not careful, you might end up Swallowed By The Cracks.  Once again, Dark Arts Books has assembled a killer lineup of top-notch talent and they have delivered some amazing stories! Bram Stoker-Award winning author Lee Thomas shares emotionally-devastating tales spanning the Victorian-Steampunk era ("The Dodd Contrivance") to the newest terror trawling Internet chat rooms ("Appetite of the Cyber Tribes") and more. Gary McMahon, drawing favorable comparisons to Ramsey Campbell in his native England, shows just why in tales ranging from feverish nightmares ("The Ghost in You") to coldly-calculated terror ("Creep") and everything in between.  S.G. Browne, fresh from the success of his ingenious novels Breathers and Fated, explores male sexual fantasies run amok in "Dream Girls," science run amok in "Dr. Lullaby," a charming small town run amok in "Lower Slaughter," and, perhaps most terrifying, a writer run amok in "Lord of Words."  Michael Marshall Smith shows why he is an international sensation with pieces ranging thought-provoking ("REMTemps") to horrifying ("What Goes on in Their Minds") to whimsical ("Dave 2 Beta 2").  Another hugely enjoyable collection of the best dark fiction writing by today's most talented authors, courtesy of your friends at Dark Arts Books.

Treats abound! In this special edition of Shock Totem are seven short stories, one poem, and five nonfiction pieces. Of the fiction, John Boden and Bracken MacLeod venture into dark and weird neighborhoods in “Halloween On...” In “Out of Field Theory,” Kevin Lucia gives us a shadowed glimpse of what lurks beyond the frame. David G. Blake’s “Night in the Forest of Loneliness” smells of autumn and the beautiful death she brings. Learn why sometimes it’s better to stay home on Halloween in “Tricks and Treats,” by Rose Blackthorn. Kriscinda Lee Everitt’s “Howdy Doody Time” is a poignant nod to the past. The shadows come alive in “Before This Night Is Done,” by Barry Lee Dejasu, and in the story “The Candle Eaters,” K. Allen Wood explores faith and hope and a darkness that haunts us all. In addition to the fiction, Sydney Leigh provides a very fine poem, “Allhallowtide (To the Faithless Departed).” Authors John Langan, Lee Thomas, and Jeremy Wagner, as well as filmmaker Mike Lombardo and the always wonderful and brusque Babs Boden, provide anecdotal Halloween recollections. No tricks, all treats. Come see why Shock Totem is billed as “...one of the strongest horror fiction magazines on the market today” (Hellnotes).
