    Hello

    Oh, it is so COLD outside today. Freezing!

    DRACULA: Hearts of Stone This MIGHT be a little like Dracula if written by J. K. Rowling. It’s a place where magic and vampires interweave for an exciting adventure. Dracula: HEARTS OF STONE
    A tale of magic, romance and fangs.
    We start with a shiny new pot of boiling water and add too many evil vampires, and not enough of the good biters. Toss in one suicidal Dracula; add a cup of mayhem and a dash of romance. Oh yes, and a pinch of mirth. Stir lovingly and you have a new novel by A. J. Gallant. If it sounds like the recipe for you then you must read Dracula: Hearts of Stone.

    OR

    "Madman in the Mirror" is a story about a man - Henry Johnson - who is raised by a psychopath and forced to watch - even as a baby - his father murder people on a regular basis. He is also abused and brainwashed, turning him into a sociopath. Henry stalks and murders people efficiently - he tells himself that he may be a killer, but he doesn't want people to suffer. He is haunted by hallucinations, including a specter in his mirror that talks to him.
    “A.J. is a master at creating word images that remain with the reader long after the book is finished.” Richard S. Friedman

    I would like to suggest reading THE ENDLESS HOUR- The True Story of a Haunted Soul.I completed publication
    in November 2010.

    Over eighteen years in the making,THE ENDLESS HOUR is about an illustration I created in 1988 that became
    reality two years later,which involves a spiritual death experience.

    This touching and terrifying true story is not only about me.It is also about... you.

    For more information go to theendlesshour.com. Once you enter the website you can watch the book video and
    read reviews. You may also want to visit amazon.com and read the first seven chapters of THE ENDLESS HOUR.

    Thanks,
    Jesse

    I guess that we are one of three who have written a reaction to Alan Watts'
    Cloud Hidden, Whereabouts unknown. He was a great influence on my life; with his help in portraying the Buddhist life.
    A few of us still remember.

    I agree, Angus Wilson is superb, but his books are still quite hard to come by. I've wanted to read one of his novels for a while, but I have read his collected short stories, which are a joy.
