ITEM: Vampire Kisses 2: Kissing Coffins by Ellen Schreiber SOLD
CONDITION: 9.0/10
PRICE: RS.250/= (original price RS.510/= or $6.00)
BACK-COVER DESCRIPTION:
After meeting the handsome and shadowy Alexander Sterling, goth-girl Raven's dark world has a bright, new glow. But as in her favourite film, Kissing Coffins, Raven knows that love always has its complications, especially when Alexander has a big secret to guard.
When Alexander suddenly disappears, Raven leaves Dullsville to begin a dangerous search to find him. Can she stay safe, no matter who - or what - she encounters on the way?
ITEM: The Demonata 01: Lord Loss by Darren Shan
CONDITION: 9.3/10
PRICE: RS.400/= (original price RS.765/= or $9.00)
BACK-COVER DESCRIPTION:
The door feels red hot, as though a fire is burning behind it. I press an ear to the wood - but there's no crackle. No smoke. Just deep, heavy breathing... and a curious dripping sound. My hand's on the doorknob. Inside the room, somebody giggles - low, throaty, sadistic. There's a ripping sound, followed by snaps and crunches. My hand turns. The door opens. Hell is revealed.
Grubbs Grady is about to learn three things: The world is vicious. Magic is possible. Demons are real. A horrifying new adventure begins with this first book in the spine-chilling Demonata series.

BACK-COVER DESCRIPTION:
Never trust fairy tales. There are no happy endings. There's always something new around the corner. You can overcome major obstacles, face great danger, look evil in the eye and live to tell the tale - but that's not the end. As long as you're breathing, your story's still going...
Nightmares haunt the dreams of Dervish Grady since his return from the Demonata universe, but Grubbs takes care of his uncle as they both try to continue a normal, demon-free existence. When a legendary cult director calls in Dervish as consultant for a new horror film, it seems a perfect excuse for a break from routine and a chance for some fun. But being on the set of a town called Slawter stirs up more than memories for Grubbs and his friend Bill-E.

But Haplo, an adventurer with some magic of his own, may be a threat to Xar's plans.

ITEM: After the Prophet by Lesley Hazleton (a must-read, in my opinion)
CONDITION: 9.6/10
PRICE: RS.1,000/= (original price RS.1,360/= or $16.00)
BACK-COVER DESCRIPTION:
In this gripping narrative history, Lesley Hazleton tells the tragic story at the heart of the ongoing rivalry between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam, a rift that dominates the news now more than ever. Even as Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) lay dying, the battle over who would take control of the new Islamic nation had begun, starting a succession crisis marked by power grabs, assassination, political intrigue, and passionate faith. Soon Islam was embroiled in civil war, pitting its founder's controversial wife Ayesha against his son-in-law Ali, and shattering Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) ideal of unity.
Combining meticulous research with compelling storytelling, After the Prophet explores the volatile intersection of religion and politics, psychology and culture, history and current events. It is an indispensable guide to the depth and power of the Sunni-Shia split.
