Here at Penny Candi Central, we’ve come to terms with the fact that “free” has its moments. For every week that offers gratis Stephen King, there will be another that is arguably a bit of a mixed bag. McEdifice Returns completely redeems it, though. I won’t say more than that. And the appearance of a Charles Dickens collection is a major win. Enjoy!

1. | Game of the Gods : And Other Stories by Angela McQuay Short story collections tend to be underrated, but they are often the source of hidden gems. Stephen King's Different Seasons is a great example. That collection resulted in three acclaimed film adaptations (Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption, and Apt Pupil). This collection by Angela McQuay may one day prove just as fertile. What producer could resist the drama and tension inherent in a godly poker game to decide the fate of the world? | $0.00 | |
2. | No Happy Endings by Gábor Eichammer The author's an interesting guy. He's a Hungarian stand-up comic who also happens to write books. No Happy Endings is his first book written completely in English. Like Game of the Gods, it's a short story collection, but each story is in a different genre, running the gamut from horror to fantasy, suspense and thriller. There's also accompanying artwork. Eichammer's many talents are on display. Take a look. | $0.00 | |
3. | Charles Dickens: The Complete Novels by Charles Dickens Charles Dickens knew what people liked and gave it to them. He understood pacing and marketing; action and drama.
