Babalon the Great by Mitchellnolte

“I believe in one Earth, the Mother of us all, and in one Womb wherein all men are begotten, and wherein they shall rest, Mystery of Mystery, in Her name BABALON.” – The Creed of Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica

Mother of fertility on whose breast lieth water, whose cheek is caressed by air, and in whose heart is the sun’s fire, womb of all life, recurring grace of seasons, answer
favorably the prayer of labour, and to pastors and husbandmen
be thou propitious. – The Earth Collect, Liber XV: The Gnostic Mass

Happy Mother’s Day!

To celebrate surpassing 2,000 followers, I am putting my
novels on sale for 99 cents through April 3rd.

Chasing the Wyrm is not as serious as My Babylon, but it was
a hell of a lot of fun to write. I love urban fantasy and bad 80s action
movies. The idea for this book came from watching Die Hard. The best explanation
I could find for how John McClain does what he does is that he’s a wizard. It
has its serious side too. I’ve always bemoaned how urban fantasy is politically
naïve. I wanted to fix that.

Chasing the Wyrm: Christopher Yan – Office of Arcane Affairs

“I work for the Office of Arcane Affairs.

You have never heard of us.

If the CIA finds out al-Qaeda has a guy who can bend spoons,
they call the OAA, and they send me. When the Office of Naval Intelligence has
reports of a strange, giant, glowing squid, “Hey OAA, can Topher scuba dive?”
An infestation of rabid, gun-toting, were-jaguars in a South American jungle?
No problem. Topher can fix it. Nothing worse than spooked spooks who don’t have
a clue what they’re dealing with.

But that’s my job. Because being a wizard means I’m the only
one who can handle it.”

To protect its interests, the U.S. government projects its
power militarily, economically, and magically. It leaves the last to the Office
of Arcane Affairs.

Christopher Yan didn’t ask for the job. A wizard born with
the power to warp reality, the OAA calls on him to neutralize all arcane
threats. Part spy, part fixer, part assassin, Topher searches for a way to make
his unique gift serve both his country and his principles. When he makes an
enemy of a rogue wizard serving a dying insurgency, he learns the limits his
conscience can bear.

To celebrate surpassing 2,000 followers, I am putting mynovels on sale for 99 cents through April 3rd.

I consider My Babylon my best work to date. Personally
cathartic, I wrote My Babylon in the gloom shrouded winter of 2013, driven
through the dark months, and completing it the spring with the promise of life
returned. I believe anyone with a taste for a dark, psychological tale with
occult themes would enjoy this book.

_____________

A novel about the paranormal and dark desires. The story of
a cursed young man who has an intimate view of the Apocalypse. My Babylon
weaves elements of urban fantasy, erotic horror, and real-world occult
practices to form a unique personal tale that thrills, terrifies, and even
enlightens.

In My Babylon, the magus, consumed with longing, seeks to
create a replacement for his lost love using a grisly ritual that requires the
theft of a body. Through her creation, he learns that he has a much bigger role
to play, and that she may be a form of salvation not only for him but for
others.

The Complete edition contains all five books of the My
Babylon story.

Reviews* for My Babylon

“Captivating, interesting, dark, and at times even
funny.”

“Darkly horrific, Lovecraftian work. Parts of it make
you squeamish, parts send chills down your spine. A deft illustration of the
black side of the human soul.”

“What I really loved about this work was what was left
unsaid—telling a story with details rather than stating the obvious is becoming
a lost art. What surprised me about this work was how much it drew me in
despite my merely mild interest in the occult.”

“James has put together a great story with great
characters who feel authentic, even as they go about tasks that you’d be
horrified to find out your neighbors were up to. And even though Mike, the
magician who narrates this story, is involved in really heinous activities, I
still like the guy. And that is an impressive feat.”

“Not for the timid this book, but well worth it.”

“An intriguing look at what drives us …”

“It’s the struggle to remain sane, keep discrete, and
keep the emotional compulsions in control that structures the suspense of this
thriller.”

“In the end, you’re left with the sense of a
masterfully conceived protagonist who gives credence to the idea of the
unsympathetic character. It also maintains an orbiting cluster of supporting
characters who are interesting in their own right but also necessary to the
development of the protagonist.”
