The Warminster mystery is fifty years old. The mystery began as unusual sounds on the morning of Christmas 1964 and continued as a UFO flap until 1977. The locals called the unusual lights and sounds central to the mystery "the Thing". The memory of that mystery remained in the background of ufology throughout the years, even while other events took centre stage. This book reviews what happened during the crazy, exciting years of the Warminster mystery. It is not a long list of the sighting reports; it is a short history of the events - the lights, the sounds - the media reports, and the characters that shaped the Thing. It is a history of the mystery. 8/10: Snappy and even-handed review of whatever it was... -- Fortean Times nicely written ... makes the perfect introduction to the Warminster affair, managing to be both open-minded and objective. -- John Rimmer, The Magonia Blog.

Gang member turned hippie Len Stone searched for enlightenment and experience. He'd tried it all - gurus and mysticism, journeys to the East, drugs and religion. But then, on a grubby bookstall in the cold streets of London, Stone chanced upon Panlyrae: A Message for Mankind, the story of Ed Freeman and his contact with aliens. Intrigued by Freeman's story, he hoped he too could learn the secrets of the universe through interaction with benevolent aliens. And then, in the nightclub he managed, he met a young woman, a runaway, and thought he'd found at last his soror mystica, his mystical sister. Together, they began to explore alien worlds. But when Stone employed a handsome bruiser to mind the doors, he let trouble in rather than keeping it out. Spanning continents, decades and worlds, Sorrow Mystica is a tale of alien contact, intrigue, espionage, and death. It is also an exploration of narrative, fiction and truth.

They were all crossing lines in their search for answers.Peta Shepherd had already crossed the line. Archie Conn might know why, and Harry Roberts would cross lines to find him. Emily Freeman had crossed a line, leaving the US and moving to London to be with Len Stone, Peta's friend, Archie's nemesis. Her head was full of secrets; why was she leaving? Colonel Skinner would cross lines to discover why, and to keep the Brits off his back. Mick Edge would cross lines to discover why the Yanks were operating on his soil without his authorisation, and what Archie had learned from Peta Shepherd about the aliens she had once talked to.And Archibald Franklin Conn? He had crossed many lines in his time - but the line he was about to cross would put him far beyond the pale. In the end, all lines cross - and the outcome changes lives forever.
