			<description><![CDATA[ I cannot believe no one has yet discussed this beautiful master-piece. SHAME ON YOU ALL!
<br>
<br>
Anyway, now being a good time to open tis topic as any other, I do wonder if any one has read this... If not, then rush to the stores. Buy this. Read. Then
punish yourself for not reading this earlier.
<br>
<br>
If you have read, then what are your thoughts on it? I think it is a very good view of the human mind. A murderer in a search that will take him to the realm
of the divine! I will not... ]]></description>

What did you think? It was labeled young adult, but I thought it was quite good. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The smell of gun powder was still fresh in the air and towers of smoke rose over the trees, stretching higher and higher until they dissapated. Occasionally, the sound of another gun being fired could be heard, sometimes followed by the cry of a dying man - sometimes, but not always. <br><br>Kazushige - Kazu, to those who knew him best - stood on a small hill, watching the smoke climbing up. Every so often, if he looked hard enough, he could see the far end of the battle field, catching... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ As I remember reading this little tidbit out there somewhere in the vast reaches of cyberspace, I'd like to take a moment to put this out there.  As this is the Library of Shadows, I want to take a moment to send a very special shout out to the one considered by many to be the &quot;father&quot; of the modern horror genre. Therefore:<br><br>     Happy Birthday to you, Mr. H. P. Lovecraft. To this day and beyond, you have woven a legacy of literature and tales that continues to touch the... ]]></description>

It ticked and tocked its defiance with an ever growing howl of rage; determined to drill the voice of madness into Jacks head. Though he laid there on the bed in a relaxed position, hands crossed behind his head, leg one over the other, Jack was as stiff as a board.<br><br>Damn that f***ing clock! He hurled a pillow at the offensive thing. He couldnt sleep anyway. Throwing his legs over the side of the bed, Jack sat up and scrubbed... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Love and Lust where but two children of gods. And as their other brothers and sisters, they too where spoiled by their very nature. Love enjoyed her games of taunting the mortals who lived upon the earth below. What a lark it was to whisper sweet promises that would only end with despair. For she had no intentions of allowing her seeds to grow. Her twin brother, Lust, was no better. He could rain down unquenchable desires faster then the time it took to look the other way. Together they would... ]]></description>

Tyessas stony appearance melted away in the moonlight as life once again filled her body. Gargoyles considered it a blessing when theyre entombed souls woke to live again. This was not the case with Tyessa. She should have been happy to of survived the daytime unscathed, but the sadness looming inside her heart made her wonder if it... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Hi everyone,<br><br>Im very happy to say that Ive just had my debut novel published (a dark fantasy adventure) and would love to swap thoughts and opinions on what makes a compelling read. With this in mind, what do you think attracts a potential reader? Would it be the front cover like mine below or is it more likely to be on the strength of the synopsis? Just how important is the cover art and what really determines our decision to invest the time to actually sit down and read a book? As a... ]]></description>

It's oversized (14x12), so the art gets plenty of page space. Each film gets about fifty pages apiece, and it's nothing but page after page of concept art, whether done by brush, pencil or mouse.<br> It retails for $50, amazon has it new for $32, and used copies go for about... ]]></description>

For those of you who have read Stephen King's The Dark Tower series, it has just come out as a comic series done by Marvel. It came out on the 7th and I just ran out to get my copy.
