Fat Charlie Nancy is not actually fat. He was fat once but he is definitely not fat now. No right now Fat Charlie Nancy is angry confused and more than a little scared – right now his life is spinning out of control and it is all his dad’s fault. If his rotter of an estranged father hadn’t dropped dead at a karaoke night Charlie would still be blissfully unaware that his dad was Anansi the spider god. He would have no idea that he has a brother called Spider who is also a god. And there would be no chance that said brother would be trying to take over his life flat and fiancee or to make matters worse be doing a much better job of it than him. Desperate to reclaim his life Charlie enlists the help of four more-than-slightly eccentric old ladies and their unique brand of voodoo – and between them they unleash a bitter and twisted force to get rid of Spider. But as darkness descends and badness begins is Fat Charlie Nancy going to get his life back in one piece or is he about to enter a whole netherworld of pain?

The spectacular international bestseller that introduced Washington-based homicide detective Alex Cross and launched James Patterson’s career as one of the fastest-selling thriller writers in the world — now reissued in striking new cover style. He had always wanted to be famous. When he kidnapped two well-known rich kids it was headline news. Then one of them was found — dead — and the whole nation was in uproar. For such a high-profile case they needed the top people — Alex Cross a black detective with a PhD in psychology and Jezzie Flanagan an ambitious young Secret Service agent — yet even they were no match for the killer. He had the unnerving ability to switch from blood-crazed madness to clear-eyed sanity in an instant. But was he the helpless victim of a multiple-personality disorder — or a brilliant cold-blooded manipulator?

Now over twenty years old, the original edition of Nightmare Movies has retained its place as a true classic of cult film criticism. In this new edition, Kim Newman brings his seminal work completely up to date, both reassessing his earlier evaluations and adding a second part that analyses the last two decades of horror films with all the wit, intelligence and insight for which he is known. Since the publication of the first edition, horror has been on a gradual upswing and has gained a new and stronger hold over the film industry. Newman negotiates his way through a vast back catalogue of horror and charts the on-screen progress of our collective fears and bogeymen, from the low-budget slasher movies of the 1960s, through to the slick releases of the 2000s. Nightmare Movies is an invaluable companion that not only provides a newly updated history of the darker side of film but also acts as a truly entertaining guide with which to explore the less well-trodden paths of horror and rediscover the classics with a newly instructed eye.
