Taking the church to therapy

Her neighbours regularly steal Mr. Farmer, her favourite gnome, from the old widow's garden to take away on holiday with them. It's a harmless joke. Mar Farmer has travelled all over the world, but he always comes back with plenty of photographs of his adventures to delight the lonely old widow. 

From the author of the notorious "banned" book The Lusty.... Ten years ago, Mr. Bartleby, the nice lollipop man who helped children cross the road on their way to school, killed himself. And now he's back to murder the kids who goaded him into suicide. A very British slasher with a jet-black heart, The Lollipop Man is a blood-soaked voyage into the depths of depravity.

Imagine James and the Giant Peach, only instead of a giant peach it's a genetic abomination, an unholy hulk of agonized flesh that should not be...and instead of a small boy sharing a jolly adventure with a group of anthropomorphic insects, there is a mindless killing machine on a nightmare voyage through an ecological hell with a group of horrifying freaks! Torture in the name of science! A plastic island inhabited by mutant sea monkeys! Pollution kaiju! A retelling of a beloved children's classic sure to have the original author spinning in his grave!

There is an increasing interest in the mystics, contemplative faith, and what it feels like in real life. We have teachers who can explain the path and help us understand, but we need guides who have experienced the path and who can show us how it unfolds. This is what The Making of a Mystic is all about.

The lucky ones died before it began to eat them. It had brooded beneath the ground for nearly a thousand years, buried alive, undying and filled with hate. It was a thing of pure hunger, a titanic monster with an insatiable appetite for the flesh of humans. It had been forgotten, an old nightmare, the stuff of fairy tales and legend.... But now it has been set free, and tonight the people of Southampton will know screaming terror as it rampages across the city in a gluttonous orgy of slaughter....

Fun. Friendship. Genital mutilation. When one of them reveals that he has terminal cancer, four childhood friends agree to do something that they have talked about for years; ever since they were young, they've always spoken about making a crop circle in the shape of a massive cock. Of course, it's a childish, stupid notion, but somehow it seems fitting. Little do they know what they are letting themselves in for...a descent into ultraviolence, insanity, and mind-bending horror.
