¶ The Onyx Book of Occult Fiction, the sixth volume of the books of occult fiction of many colours, brings together fifteen tales by masters of contemporary occult fiction. Including stories by both familiar names, such as Reggie Oliver and Mark Valentine, and others by mysterious practitioners, such as Avalon Brantley and R. Ostermeier, the present instalment is certain to appeal to those adherents and occult enthusiasts proceeding along the paths on both the right and left hand side of the deep lakes of the esoteric literature of the fantastic.
Containing a varied and rich array of stories, about hidden wellsprings of ancient power, vengeful incantations, a cacophonous séance, an invisible city, strenuous rites, and the ecstatic revelations of forgotten religious sects, among other things, The Onyx Book of Occult Fiction, edited by Damian Murphy, is an indispensable addition to any library of the supernatural and occult.
