“Love, my dear, is the opium of the masses!” A tyrannical queen rules the island of Severia with an iron fist, while her loyal vizierienne is determined to persuade her that in the art of government and politics, it is better to be loved than feared. The steaks are high. Those who challenge the views of the trigger-happy monarch often perish in terrifying circumstances. Some fall down the stairs of the palace. Others die strangled by their own intestines. The most daring offenders are publicly beheaded by the queen’s trusted headswoman, Esther. She is a talented executioner whose fame spreads as far as the kingdom of Cynocephalia, inhabited by dog-headed people. Its ruler, King Anubis II, is an obsessive-compulsive bureaucrat who follows the letter of the law with religious vigor. Only reckless explorers and hopeless criminals dare to sail in the stormy waters of the Arctic Ocean that surround the Far North, where there is nothing but nothingness. The lucky among them die from hypothermia, while the rest are maimed and eaten by polar unicorns—sea monsters with insatiable appetite for human flesh. Farther away, unbeknown to the rest of the world, lie the scattered islands of the Cycloptic archipelago, where the mighty Hyperborean Empire rises and falls in splendid isolation. The first Hyperborean to reach the Old World is a ginger-haired giant who gets stranded on a beach in the queendom of Epiphagia. Its founders adopted a philosophy called egalitarianism and as a result their descendants evolved into headless freaks who speak a strange language called French. Their queen, Marie Antoinette, is a woman with a big heart and an even bigger addiction to pastry. With Codex Hyperboreanus Yanko Tsvetkov embarks on yet another journey through an imaginary world, where myth, romance, horror, and politics blend in a captivating amalgam of comic fantasy. A seasoned storyteller and bestselling author, Tsvetkov again draws inspiration from One Thousand and One Nights and medieval literature to effortlessly reinvent their timeless subjects to modern sensibilities. The stories complement those found in the previous book from the Apophenia series, Sex, Drugs and Tales of Wonder. The accompanying illustrations are once again drawn by Tsvetkov’s creative alter ago, Alphadesigner.

A genre-bending short story cycle inspired by classical mythology and folk tales from around the world. Best-selling author and cosmopolitan mythographer Yanko Tsvetkov effortlessly subverts classical narratives about psychotic messiahs and damsels in distress, only to reinvent them as postmodern meta-myths about gender-fluid deities that not only struggle to control, but are often trapped within their own amusing creations. Half psychedelic romance and half political satire, Apophenia will immerse you into an eclectic universe of parallel worlds and competing pantheons that defy the expectations of the most adventurous readers. This extended edition combines the previously published volumes Sex Drugs and Tales of Wonder and Codex Hyperboreanus along with thirteen brand new tales from yet another, previously unexplored corner of the Apophenia universe—the village of Caudilla and its hypnotic wheat fields, grumpy olive trees, and bulls that lay golden eggs.

Enter a whimsical realm of gender-fluid deities, leprechauns in distress, shape-shifting cyber insects, scorpions that hatch out of broken human hearts, and sea monsters that make entire planets spin backwards. Fast paced and irreverently funny, the eclectic story cycle spans multiple genres, from fantasy to horror and science fiction. Inspired by the classic narrative styles of One Thousand and One Nights and medieval travelogues, bestselling author Yanko Tsvetkov reinvents the fairy tale and builds an imaginary world full of wonder, mystery and humor. The text is accompanied by unique, eye-catching illustrations created by Alphadesigner, Tsvetkov’s equally creative alter ego.

The bureau won’t normally take homicides, but this one seemed odd. A suicide in New York, a school shooting in New Haven, and the discovery of Katelyn Miller’s corpse near a cabin in Georgia strike a nerve in my ego. This puzzle is a Rubik’s cube wrapped in a jigsaw, but it doesn’t take long to find a suspect. Dante Betti might be the most dangerously insane armchair philosopher I’ve come across in my years. He follows the rules of logic religiously, but he abides by none of them. A war veteran turned hermit, he’ll stop at nothing to unearth John’s killer and level a conspiracy oppressing New Haven for hundreds of years, even if it means digging up graves and kidnapping university presidents. His war brother, Kelson Collins, won’t mind coming along. If he can’t keep his family together, he can at least keep a promise. The stakes are high, and losses even higher. All the evidence points toward Dante orchestrating everything, but I’ve been in the game long enough to know that things are not always as they appear. I regret to inform you now that I failed to conclude this case, hoping that you read my report yourself so you can understand why. I should warn you, however, once you crack this folder open, you might wish you hadn’t. Some truths are better to be avoided; some questions better left unanswered.

Excerpt from Codex Nuttall: Facsimile of an Ancient Mexican Codex Belonging to Lord Zouche of Harynworth, England In conclusion: it is certain that in the Vienna and its sister-codex we possess. Two manuscripts of the same authorship, and bearing the same date. Historical evi dence points to the conclusion that they are identical with the two native books recorded in the inventory Of1519. Let us now examine how far the sister-codices them selves yield internal evidence in support of the View that they date from the time of Montezuma, and are in the Nahuatl language, as assumed by the unknown individual who annotated one of them.
