Crossover Cover: Till Sudden Death Do Us Part

 

Ishmael Jones is called by Robert Bergin, a former colleague from his days at Black Heir, to prevent his daughter and her groom-to-be from falling prey to the family curse on their wedding day. Ishmael and his lover and companion Penny Belcourt read two books about the Bergin Curse, one of which is authored by Jason Grant. The best man remembers a slogan he saw on a T-shirt once: “Just because I’m paranoid it doesn’t mean I’m not out to get you.” Jason Grant is a minor character in Green’s Drinking Midnight Wine. In Green’s Ghost Finders novel Voices from Beyond, Happy Jack Palmer of the Carnacki Institute wore a T-shirt with the slogan “Just because I’m paranoid, it doesn’t mean I’m not out to get you.”

This crossover is one of over a thousand covered in my book Crossovers Expanded: A Secret Chronology of the World Volume 3, coming this summer from Meteor House! All three volumes are AUTHORIZED companions to Win Scott Eckert's Crossovers: A Secret Chronology of the World Volumes 1 and 2!

Crossover Cover: Happy Forever

 

In this story by Simon R. Green, professional thief Gideon Sable is hired by the father of a former lover to rescue her from a house where Time stands still. The father asks Gideon if he really stole the Hand of Eibon. Gideon finds many references to the house in books about unusual places such as Undertowen, the world below. Eibon is from Clark Ashton Smith’s Cthulhu Mythos stories. London Undertowen is from Green’s Secret Histories novel For Heaven’s Eyes Only and his Ghost Finders novel Spirits from Beyond. It bears noting that following the events of this story another thief assumes the identity of Gideon Sable, acting as the protagonist of a series of novels by Green, which have crossovers of their own.
