    Author John Howard
    “Book Descriptions: In this third (and final) shared volume influenced by the supernatural and metaphysical thrillers of “Inkling” Charles Williams (1886-1945), John Howard presents a wonder-filled short novel and Mark Valentine serves up two rather amazing novelettes.

    John Howard’s fast-paced novel ‘Fallen Sun’ recounts the battle between several rival groups for ownership of a powerful Byzantine talisman, and the different visions they each encounter when it is in their possession. Through many twists and turns of chance and intention, none of the characters emerge unchanged, until the full significance of the treasure is at last revealed.

    Mark Valentine’s ‘Masque and Anti-Masque’ is set in a small, ancient university town with a tradition of seasonal processions. But what is their significance? Could the town really be the occult capital of England, as a new book proposes? And in ‘The Prospero Machine’, the cards issued by fortune-telling machines at a seaside resort seem to have an uncanny influence on the town, linked to an obscure society’s work with dream magic.

    POSSESSIONS AND PURSUITS is a Hand Numbered Limited Edition Jacketed Hardcover.

    Bound in Light Blue Cialux Italian cloth, Foil Blocked to Front & Spine in White, Quality Cream Text Paper, Full Colour Marble Design Endpapers, Section Sewn binding, Head/Tailbands and Ribbon Bookmarker. Approx 176pp including prelims etc.

    Fantastic Full Colour Wrap Dust-Jacket Art by PAUL LOWE.”
