Books with title Of Pranksters, Eight: A Tapestry of Twisted Threads in Folio

Within realms of the unknown, superstition stalks. Primitives see god in a rainbow, but they also suspect a deadly serpent beneath every unturned stone. Ignorance and fear sometimes unite to inspire us or spare us, but more often this demonic duality serves to light the torches of enraged mobs.Indeed, history tells stories of witches burned alive amid great celebrations. We know these things happened. We also know witchcraft is a figment.Fearlessly now, step away from the staid, known world that shelters you. Venture into lands of conundrum and enigma to ponder matters of mind. Of a midnight carnival hosting dark celebrations; of lasting drought within the well of souls; of lost places and all the banished who wander there; of fantastic escapes in madness and of moral frailty before inhuman error; of esoteric authority that engenders supernatural potential; of witches, real and imagined, and of all our kind vanished into the never-seen; such twisted threads weave life’s strange tapestry. Of answers, here find many startling propositions, and of mysteries, twelve.

Peddlers and snake oil, pimps and pornography, lunatics and paranoia… each pair travels the same darkened alleyways to service identical shadow-bound gates. We receive them by the backdoor, thank you, and always well into the evening.These are private matters undertaken and clearly marked by clandestine hush and furtive sidelong glance. Sometimes concealed in the open but more often hidden in a fog of disinformation, our every secret contains a kernel of truth wrapped within a burlap of proficient lies.Patience and due diligence may unwrap the enigma to decipher a hidden message, but let the interloper beware. Secrecy keeps company with slaughter. Of political overwatch run monstrously amok; of corrupt small-town cops playing god; of ancient treasures buried in the most obvious of sites, and of all the mysterious specters that play lethal games of government; such twisted threads weave life’s strange tapestry. Of conspiracies, here find intriguing catalogs, and of conspirators, four.
