Parents, do you have a young reader in your family who is particularly interested in flying saucers, ghosts, monsters and other bizarre topics that fall outside the normal school curriculum? If so, congratulations. Chances are you have a son or daughter of above average I.Q. The greatest minds of the 20th century; people like Einstein, Lilly, Heisenberg, Goodall and Tesla, accomplished what they did because they were willing to "think outside the box" and explore the fringe regions of what we call "reality." Quantum Physics and Interspecies Communication were "nonsense" and "mumbo-jumbo" before these far-sighted individuals had the courage to stand against prevailing scientific dogma. If your child is interested in this book, there's no guarantee he or she will be the next Einstein or Goodall, but it's a pretty good indication of blossoming intellect and curiosity. These should be nurtured.

"In compiling this anthology, it was my intention to focus on stories of crime motivated by hate. Not racially, politically, or religiously motivated violence, even though these are labeled 'hate crimes' in contemporary media. Edgar Allan Poe's The Casque of Amontillado opens the anthology and The Interlopers by Saki (H.H. Munro) provides an appropriately hateful bookend as the final tale. In between these two classic stories you will find seven very imaginative and original creations by incredibly talented contemporary authors: Jennifer Trumbull gives us her take on what happens when a privileged young woman with everything going for her decides to kill someone in the aptly titled I Hate You. Randall Smith cautions Don't Be Stupid in his disturbing tale of an eleven-year-old boy who's not quite right. Psychopaths, Grieving and Timeslips is a most unusual novella from P.K. Kleypas. It deals with hate and the ensuing guilt it can arouse in 'normal' people forced to deal with psychopathic family members. SF by Steven Purselley is a coming-of-age tale of profound darkness. The Last Ray of Summer by Anthony Ferguson is another tale of family drama and the extreme measures required to end the acts of a sociopathic father. Che Trujillo offers an inside look at the initiatory practices of an urban gang and a glimpse into the mind of a victim turned killer in Cherry Boy. Crepuscular, my own contribution to this collection, tells of the lingering consequences crimes of hate can generate even decades after the fact. So, immerse yourself in the strange situations and states of consciousness we have conjured for your amusement. And, be cautioned against unleashing your own crimes of hate on the unsuspecting world." Bret McCormick

Chaos Magick Experiment is just that - an experiment. One in which you can take part. This is not a grimoire (at least not in the usual sense of the word) and its author is not a shepherd seeking a flock. Use this book to participate in a year-long gestation of whatever it is you choose to manifest. Your results, should you so desire, will be included in the data presented in the follow-up volume. Participate in an experiment, the likes of which the world has never known!

An anthology of short stories in loving homage to those wonderful gorefest movies and books of the 1980's, that golden age when horror well and truly came kicking, screaming and spraying blood, gore & body parts out from the shadows... It was the decade that brought us everything in the cinema and VHS, from the Italian 'nasties' to Elm Street, The Lost Boys, Hellraiser, The Thing, Day of the Dead, Reanimator, Return of the Living Dead, My Bloody Valentine, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, Cannibal Holocaust....and superlative directors such as David Cronenburg, John Waters, Roger Corman and - of course - Clive Barker. This exemplary 80's themed/inspired tales of terror has been adjudicated and compiled by one Mr Bret McCormick, himself a writer, producer and director of many a schlock classic, including Bio-Tech Warrior, Time Tracers, The Abomination, Ozone: The Attack of the Redneck Mutants and the inimitable Repligator.
