London, 1900: while Monet paints the wintry mists over the Thames, the bodies of two young women are dragged from its murky depths arousing fears of a return of Jack the Ripper By now a celebrated and successful artist - despite the controversy stirred up by the Impressionist movement - in the early months of the new century, Monet returned to London to paint his famous Thames series. Prompted by memories of an earlier visit in 1870, the old man recalls his youthful struggles, his beloved first wife Camille and his scandalous relationship with Alice Hoschedé. And now, in a frenzy of creative activity he paints the haunting canvasses that act as a backdrop to a series of grizzly, psychopathic killings. Oliver Craston, a fledgling diplomat, by chance is present when a horribly mutilated body is pulled from the Thames. Mindful of the need to steer clear of controversy, he is unwillingly drawn into the police investigation. Furthermore, with the Foreign Office nervous over French sympathies with the Boers, Oliver's new acquaintance with M. Monet and his son, who are staying in the luxury of the Savoy Hotel, is likely to raise an eyebrow or two. But on the floor above the Monets' suite, given over as a hospital for wounded officers, stalks a far greater danger. . . and across the river in the backstreet slums of Lambeth are visions of horror beyond even the intuition of the artist. As the naïve young diplomat becomes entangled with bohemian society and the seamier side of London that the investigation exposes him to, a disturbing and unfamiliar world opens up to him. This compelling and mutlilayered novel is an atmospheric exploration of the life of an artist, a murder thriller and, like Tulip Fever and Girl With a Pearl Earring, a triumphant example of 'art fiction'. It is illustrated with 12 reproductions of the paintings themselves

Thru Times Looking Glass Publications Volume 1Kingdom of Mists is an illustrated collection of tales and prose about the people and families that lived in the hamlets of the Kingdom of Mists and its neighboring duchies on the planet Pegasus. Even the poorest and least educated family was richly blessed with special gifts.Throughout the ages, tales of the exploits of these citizens of Pegasus have taken on a life of their own, framed in ballads, prose, and etchings.These tales are offshoots of reality. Many of the characters actually lived or are still living and the illustrations are digitally enhanced collages of mixed media and ancestral photographs or portraits taken of them at various states in their lives. Their special gifts are exaggerated but based on their real gifts. And some of their experiences are based on family stories shared around a crackling fire late in the eve. Others are purely figments of my over active imagination. Each story also features mystical beings called shadow myphits that, though resembling toys or real creatures such as birds, take on a secret magic of their own, living deep in the hidden corridors of your imagination. These mystical beings accompany you along your path. But only you can see their magical powers unless you choose to uncloak their tones so others can experience them also.Come now with me, slipping quietly and quickly through the hidden crystal portal of Time

The magical saga of the women behind King Arthur's throne. “A monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends . . . reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience. . . . An impressive achievement.”—The New York Times Book Review In Marion Zimmer Bradley's masterpiece, we see the tumult and adventures of Camelot's court through the eyes of the women who bolstered the king's rise and schemed for his fall. From their childhoods through the ultimate fulfillment of their destinies, we follow these women and the diverse cast of characters that surrounds them as the great Arthurian epic unfolds stunningly before us. As Morgaine and Gwenhwyfar struggle for control over the fate of Arthur's kingdom, as the Knights of the Round Table take on their infamous quest, as Merlin and Viviane wield their magics for the future of Old Britain, the Isle of Avalon slips further into the impenetrable mists of memory, until the fissure between old and new worlds' and old and new religions' claims its most famous victim.

What if everything you love is suddenly gone? And everything you fear is all you have? Welcome to Calabiyau, a land where magic is as normal as the sunrise and evil is on a rampage. Meet Kandide. Still a teen in human years, she is the personification of perfection. She's also spoiled beyond belief and vain beyond control. You won't like her at first. Nevertheless, she is heir to Calabiyau's throne and the keeper of the "Gift"-the key to the survival for all Fée. When a terrible accident leaves her less than "perfect," Kandide's own mother mercilessly sends her to a treacherous land where strange beasts roam the dark lifeless forest and even stranger Fée rule its secret kingdom. If she is to survive, Kandide must battle hideous creatures, as well as her own repulsion for the "Imperfects" that she has become. But that is just the beginning of her troubles. Within Calabiyau, a presence far more deadly is emerging. Kandide's prankster brother, Teren, her tomboy sister, Tara, and a group of misfit Imperfects set off on a perilous journey to save their sister and their land. They must challenge the darkest of forces to face an evil far worse than any imagined. Kandide and her kingdom are forever changed. Or are they?What the critics say: "Kandide gives its readers one captivating, enthralling adventure after another." - Los Angeles Newspaper Group "There is plenty of action and strife to spice up the plot." - VOYA"There really isn't much that can be said about Diana S. Zimmerman's "Kandide" that isn't covered under "Bravo!" Kandide and the Secret of the Mists is a wonderfully magical adventure that creates an involving tale of fear, loss, and redemption. Strewn all over the land of Calabiyau (namesake of the trilogy) are vivid details that bring the world of the Fée to undeniable life." - Nothing Binding "Kandide is at the crossroads of invention and imagination. Zimmerman's character variety provides moral conflict amid a fantasy component, where life-changing epiphanies are discovered along with fanciful adventures in pomegranate meadows, palaces, dark woods, and underwater caverns. You'll be absorbed into 'Kandide and the Secret of the Mists' as if you were making the journey yourself. Zimmerman's gentle, descriptive prose perches on the edge of poetry." - Las Vegas Around the Clock"This author knows her way around the redemptive tale. Diana S. Zimmerman does not stop at portraying fully fleshed lead characters. Set in the magical land of Calabiyau, Kandide is a must-read for all who treasure books and the finer impulses of human nature." - Air America Radio
