Favorite Books

An eclectic mess of fiction and nonfiction: Giorgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechend's "Hamlet's Mill," M. John Harrison's "The Pastel City," John Michell's "The View Over Atlantis" (a grand visionary prose poem too often read as fact), Edgar Pangborn's "Davy," Theodore Roszak's "Where the Wasteland Ends," J.R.R.

What I'm Reading

Lewis Spence's "The Magic Arts in Celtic Britain," David Hiley's "Western Plainchant: A Handbook," and a collection of old instructional papers from one of the old Druid orders that folded into the Ancient Order of Druids in America.
