Book Description
Experience a colorful year in the life of a novelist and her partner as they run a Glastonbury witchcraft supply shop in this charming memoir. While some might know Glastonbury for its five-day music festival, the Somerset market town is also known as a center of pilgrimage and miracles. For over a thousand years, visitors have come to Glastonbury for Christ, the goddess, the god, angels, and fairies, as well as solutions and answers. It is also where novelist Liz Williams met Trevor Jones, the owner of a witchcraft shop. Their relationship began to flourish, and in 2005, Liz took the plunge and moved from Brighton to Glastonbury to live and work with Trevor. Her life would never be the same . . . In Diary of a Witchcraft Shop, Liz and Trevor share anecdotes from the course of one year in their lives. Experience the eccentric day-to-day life of a small business in a tourist town, with staff troubles and quirky customers. Get a glimpse of the pagan world, its rituals, and its holidays. Travel with Liz and Trevor to the Houses of Parliament, Ireland, Brittany, and elsewhere. There are also plenty of surprises, too, like Shetland ponies and the TARDIS. Full of humor as well as insightful observations from life’s light-hearted—and sometimes dark—moments, Diary of a Witchcraft Shop shows that sometimes life is stranger than fiction.

The Book of Magic

Author: George R. R. Martin
Publisher: Bantam
ISBN: 0399593799
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 577

Book Description
A new anthology celebrating the witches and sorcerers of epic fantasy—featuring stories by George R. R. Martin, Scott Lynch, Megan Lindholm, and many others! Hot on the heels of Gardner Dozois’s acclaimed anthology The Book of Swords comes this companion volume devoted to magic. How could it be otherwise? For every Frodo, there is a Gandalf . . . and a Saruman. For every Dorothy, a Glinda . . . and a Wicked Witch of the West. What would Harry Potter be without Albus Dumbledore . . . and Severus Snape? Figures of wisdom and power, possessing arcane, often forbidden knowledge, wizards and sorcerers are shaped—or misshaped—by the potent magic they seek to wield. Yet though their abilities may be godlike, these men and women remain human—some might say all too human. Such is their curse. And their glory. In these pages, seventeen of today’s top fantasy writers—including award-winners Elizabeth Bear, John Crowley, Kate Elliott, K. J. Parker, Tim Powers, and Liz Williams—cast wondrous spells that thrillingly evoke the mysterious, awesome, and at times downright terrifying worlds where magic reigns supreme: worlds as far away as forever, and as near as next door. FEATURING SIXTEEN ALL-NEW STORIES: “The Return of the Pig” by K. J. Parker “Community Service” by Megan Lindholm “Flint and Mirror” by John Crowley “The Friends of Masquelayne the Incomparable” by Matthew Hughes “The Biography of a Bouncing Boy Terror: Chapter Two: Jumping Jack in Love” by Ysabeau S.

R. Martin’s classic story “A Night at the Tarn House” and an introduction by Gardner Dozois Praise for The Book of Magic “In The Book of Magic, you get everything you expect and more! Assembling seventeen great authors in one place is a difficult job but this book, with a lot of help from editor Gardner Dozois, does just that. . . . This compilation is a treat for any who love a good fantasy tale.”—Geeks of Doom

The Dedalus Book of the 1960s

Pages : 461

Book Description
It is the 60s – yes it is magic, sex, drugs and rock and roll. In The Dedalus Book of the 1960s: Turn Off Your Mind, Gary Lachman uncovers the Love Generation's roots in occultism and explores the dark side of the Age of Aquarius. His provocative revision of the 1960s counterculture links Flower Power to mystical fascism, and follows the magical current that enveloped luminaries like the Beatles, Timothy Leary and the Rolling Stones, and darker stars like Charles Manson, Anton LaVey, and the Process Church of the Final Judgment. Acclaimed by satanists and fundamentalist Christians alike, this edition includes a revised text incorporating new material on the 'suicide cult' surrounding Carlos Castaneda; the hippy serial killer Charles Sobhraj; the strange case of Ira Einhorn, 'the Unicorn'; the CIA and ESP; the new millennialism and more. From H.P. Lovecraft to the Hell’s Angels, find out how the Morning of the Magicians became the Night of the Living Dead.
