Book Description
Jerry Cornelius is a scientist, a rock star, and an assassin. He is the hippest adventurer of them all: tripping through a pop art nightmare in which kidnappings, murder, sex and drugs are a daily occurrence. Along with his savvy and ruthless partner-in-chaos, Miss Brunner, Cornelius is on a mission to control a revolutionary code for creating the ultimate human being, a modern messiah— the final programme. The first book in the Cornelius Quartet is the groundbreaking introduction to the misadventures and vendettas of Jerry Cornelius, one of modern literature’s most distinctive characters, the product of a bewildering post-modern culture, and an inspiration for generations of characters since.

Book Description
“A serious comic novel about human failings and forgiveness. This remarkable study of a doorman will stay with you, and live on.” —Allison Janney, Oscar Award–winning actress Cornelius Sky is a doorman in a posh Fifth Avenue apartment building that houses New York City’s elite, including a former First Lady whose husband was assassinated while in office. It is 1974 and New York City is heading toward a financial crisis. At work, Connie prides himself on his ability to buff a marble floor better than anyone, a talent that so far has kept him from being fired for his drinking. He pushes the boundaries of his duties, partying and playing board games with the former First Lady’s lonely thirteen-year-old son in the service stairwell—the only place where the boy is not spied upon mercilessly by the tabloid press and his Secret Service detail. Connie believes he is the only one who can offer true solace and companionship to this fatherless boy, but his constant neglect of his own sons and their mother reaches a boiling point. His wife changes the locks on his own door, and he finds himself wandering the mean streets of the city in his uniform, where unlikely angels offer him a path toward redemption. Cornelius Sky is an elegant picaresque that beautifully captures an opulent city on the edge of ruin and recovery. “A novel that seems to be everywhere, and is superbly told. The storyteller has the sharp eye and calm voice of an intrigued looker-on.” —Larry Heinemann, National Book Award–winning author of Paco’s Story “A dramatically satisfying and emotional resonant novel.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Description
In the Cult of Aleister Crowley J. Edward Cornelius adds over 150 pages to his wildly popular Memoirs of an A.'.A.'. Initiate. In this expanded volume, Jerry details the ongoing fight for Thelemic freedom against the Restrictionists in the A.'.A.'. lineage who have taken control of the O.T.O. Here's some of what's new in this book. Why is J. Daniel Gunther a Thelemic Pope, according to one of his own lineage members? And did you know Breeze attacked Kenneth Grant and forced him to capitulate any claims to the OTO? And who is Peter Koenig in Switzerland? And what caused Breeze to flee America to Europe where he remains hidden to this day? And how did Dave Scriven become Xth Degree? The untold truth behind the Provisional IX° and the OTO's Chakra system. So many great stories. Bill Breeze's claim that Aiwass, the author of The Book of the Law, was not Crowley's Holy Guardian Angel but merely his pen name. Phyllis Seckler discusses Bill Breeze' 10th House Saturn: "Hitler and Mussolini ¿ also had the same type aspect. But the aspect also gives a great fall after a meteoric rise." What so alarmed James Graeb IX° that he convened a special meeting of the Elector IX°s in a bid to have Bill Breeze removed from office-and how did Phyllis Seckler leverage this into a promise from Breeze to leave the various other A.'.A.'. lineages alone? What is the real secret behind the Caliphate, and what happened to the OTO simply because Bill Breeze never knew it? Why were so many Thelemic movers and shakers thrown out of the Order? What's the full story of the "Fill-Kill" controversy? How come the Tunis Comment turns out to imply that Gunther lineage never had any legitimacy in the first place? Who is Keith Readdy and what are his connection to Boleskine? He who forgets his own history knows nothing. We think you'll enjoy this new volume!
