Book Description
Robert Knight is a member of a powerful supernatural race known as the Jinn. Viewed as a threat by the rest of the supernatural world, the Jinn have been hunted into near extinction. When he and the last remaining members of his family are forced to flee for their lives, Robert decides that the time has come to try and overturn the millennia of hatred against his people and secure his family’s survival by establishing a spirit of friendship and trust. But with fanatical zealots hunting him at every turn, will Robert be able to convince anyone that the ancient crusade against his people is a war that should be left in the past? The Jinn Knight is a story of chivalry, honour and integrity as one man fights for survival and acceptance within the supernatural community. Supernatural races, both more and less widely known, strive to bring about a better future, or to complete a centuries long quest for genocide.

Book Description
“Tenth Moon-Knight of the New London Wastelands Gregory Tenant awoke all in a start. The nightly visions had returned. Once more he had dreamed that he was the Wulven beast, once again bounding down upon some poor, panicked victim—again feeding on fresh human flesh. Not sure yet was he that he was not that Wulf himself, for he had heard rumours of strange kills coming out of the core that eerily matched his nightly visions. But whether the Wulf were his own nightmarish spawn, or another entity entirely, it had become his mission in life to hunt the beast and slay it--even if that meant that he must in grim fact so slay himself—even if that heralded his ultimate undoing by a wild shadow known only as Crucible.”

Book Description
Terrorists wanting to proclaim jihad resort to the power of mystical Islam, including dreams, black magic, and the control of supernatural entities known as jinn, to steal Pakistan's nuclear weapons. As attacks on colleges increase, Samir, the education advisor to the prime minister, sets out to unravel the mystical powers being exploited. While truths are uncovered, separating myths from facts, Ifrit, a powerful jinn, is contacted by terrorists to fulfill their agenda in exchange for having the jinn rule the earth. What follows is a sequence of fast-moving events when a terrorist head in Afghanistan declares himself to be the Mahdi, the Islamic leader prophesied to rule the world, and calls upon all Muslims to join him, leading to a nuclear standoff between Pakistan and India, to a fight between good and evil, and to an uncertain end if the imbroglio will lead to an apocalypse and end of times.

Book Description
Despite the insatiable public appetite for all things Star Wars, the more analytical side of the saga is all too often ignored. This book offers a new way of seeing George Lucas’ space opera—particularly the prequel trilogy, a series never given a fair chance because of constant comparisons to the iconic originals. In the classic style of Joseph Campbell, the trilogy is viewed through the lens of myth and metaphor, revealing a body of work not only worthy of scholarly study but perhaps destined to find therein its home. A wide variety of philosophical and mythological themes are presented and expounded upon, drawing from a rich source of scholars, thinkers, writers, and poets from East and West alike. Heretical or not, the Star Wars prequels are a surprisingly rich source of insight into the saga—as well as the human drama—as a whole.

Book Description
"When religion becomes artificial, art has a duty to rescue it. Art can show that the symbols which religions would have us believe literally true are actually figurative. Art can idealize those symbols, and so reveal the profound truths they contain." - Richard Wagner Parsifal, the epic, final opera by Richard Wagner, stunned audiences and set the stage for the decline of modern civilization. For more than one hundred years, Parsifal has been one of the most controversial dramatic works in the world, not only moving the world's top composers and writers to tears and inspiring generations of creative geniuses, but it was also admired by Adolf Hitler. Wagner's retelling of the myth of the Holy Grail and the knights who protect it showed the secret path to liberation from suffering, but no one understood it. Wagner himself never explained Parsifal, and in his wake thousands of writers, critics, and artists have attempted to penetrate its mysteries yet have failed, since they were not initiated into the secret tradition it came from. Finally, in this book by Samael Aun Weor, the meaning of Parsifal is fully revealed, and the genius and spiritual accomplishments of Richard Wagner are made radiantly clear. "The year 1914 will always be a memorable date among the remarkable dates of this humanity, because of the explosion of the First World War and the simultaneous debut of Parsifal in all the civilized world." - Samael Aun Weor Features: • A complete exposure of the spiritual archetypes hidden in Parsifal, with examples from other religions and mythologies • Detailed instructions for sexual transmutation, including postures and mantras • Includes the complete libretto of Parsifal
