Book excerpt: Victims all describe hearing a voice before they die gruesomely. Sometimes it's singing an old Taiwanese song, sometimes it's in Japanese, and sometimes it's an anguished call for help from a loved one. Can Wu Shih-Sheng, a degenerate taxi driver in Taipei, hunt down the source of the voice that killed his wife before he becomes the next victim? Whisper is a plot-driven, Taiwanese horror story. As well as being a chilling read, Chang Yu-Ko cleverly combines Taiwanese folklore, the Japanese occupation of Taiwan, and the long-term mistreatment of the country's aboriginal people into a story of how the past can still kill.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eastern Legends and Stories: In English Verse The author, in submitting to the Public the following collection of Translations from Eastern sources, has thought it best to convert for the most part the Oriental forms of speech, which the characters in these Legends would use, into, as far as may be, their English equi valents; that what is said might sound more real in Western ears. He has reduced the number of foot-notes to the narrowest possible limits, believing that in a work of light poetry the constant intervention of notes becomes tiresome to the reader.

Book excerpt: An empty canoe washes up on the shore of the Nahanni River — has the river claimed four more lives? When his teenage daughter goes missing on a summer wilderness canoe trip to the Nahanni River, Inspector Michael Green is forced into unfamiliar territory. Unable to mobilize the local RCMP, he enlists the help of his long-time friend, Staff Sergeant Brian Sullivan, to accompany him to the Northwest Territories to look for themselves. Green is terrified. The park has 30,000 square kilometres of wilderness and 600 grizzlies. Even worse, Green soon discovers his daughter lied to him. The trip was organized not by a reputable tour company but by her new boyfriend, Scott, a graduate geology student. When clues about Scott’s past begin to drift in, Green, Sullivan, and two guides head into the wilderness. After the body of one of the group turns up at the bottom of a cliff, they begin to realize just what is at stake.
