Heaven & Hellhound: The Page of Wands - Act III

Heaven & Hellhound - The Page of Wands is a work of literary fiction that weaves together esoteric philosophies and the eternal struggle between light and shadow. Volume One crosses the threshold where ancient mysteries collide with the questions posed by modern consciousness. From that liminal space, the membrane dividing the sacred from the profane dissolves into the macabre. If not for the lantern's light, the dark night of the soul enshrouds all. Inspired by the engravings of Gustave Doré and the ferocious vision of Vincent van Gogh, Heaven & Hellhound opens a portal while providing the talisman necessary for all those who dare to peer beyond the veil.The plot channels the esoteric traditions of the Western mystery schools by way of Metaphysical Realism, a novel literary mode explored at metaphysicalrealism.com. Here, the occult isn't a concept for decoration. It's a functional system subject to hidden laws of physics. The muse is not portrayed as metaphor, but as a visitor whose toll on the body is commensurate with all that is received in its wake.Heaven & Hellhound melds the encyclopedic occult-paranoia of Gravity's Rainbow and Foucault's Pendulum with the theological urgency of The Master and Margarita and the British esotericism of the 20th century. There comes a time when all souls are forced to pass through The Crossroads, braving its devils, its magicians and its unending hall of mirrors. Only then, be they righteous in life or sinners without conscience, may they discover for themselves whether God had been watching all along.Heaven & Hellhound - The Page of Wands is the foundational text of Metaphysical Realism.
