The old gods, secret societies, astral travel and mystical weapons win the day. The Enemy he wars against is the source of his lover’s sickness. Surprise attacks from the forest by fell creatures threaten his success and his very life.

The simplicity of the message is concealed in the gauss of fiction, spelled out to those with ears to hear.

It amuses me when my friends tell me they are annoyed when something like a phone call interrupts their reading it.

Sometimes we read a book then forget it in a few days. You won’t forget this one.
