Published by Ernest Kinnie on February 16, 2013. .
Welcome to my third book. You’re as weird as I am if you’re still with me. We’ll get along just fine.
I was a self-centered, oversexed, murderous brat in my first book, learning how to play in the World of Shadow. In the second, I was a self-centered, oversexed, murderous brat getting a lot better acquainted with the World of Shadow, and learning about the Syven World.

Publisher info
My friend Janis Hoffman, who wishes to remain anonymous, is writing about the wild adventures of a highly intelligent, self-centered brat, Alice, who discovers the ancient Egyptian World of Shadow and runs circles around people at UC Berkeley.
Our goal is to expand what you can think, feel and create, to invite you to the dance. My books include: two in the area of self-help psychology; papers, such as how to create useful idiots; and, a play and book about what happens when a group of university professors invite a shaman from the Sonoran Desert to share his world.
A serious warning! You need a firm grip on reality and a reasonably stable life, otherwise best to pass on by.
And not for the easily offended! Adult language is used when appropriate to the narrative, as in ALICE, and techniques for enhancing sexuality are given in THE MAGIC THEATER II. Taboos are broken. Political correctness ignored. Old habits and ways of thinking challenged.

I’ve had such colorful emails of shock and horror from some who read my first book. You are all wonderful people, very sensitive and refined, and I so regret exposing you to raw reality. Yes, I love foul language, passionate sex, and smashing taboos into little bits of fun. And I’m not much for political correctness.
