Synopsis

From the dawn of history, magicians and poets have sought the land of the dead-magicians by force of will, poets by the power of imagination.In The Book of Angels, fiction writer Michael Lynch is drawn into a chilling reality in which a ruthless magician employs the terror and commandments of magick-to know, to dare, to will, to keep silence-to harness the force of Lynch's imagination in a bid for the ultimate journey. Lynch's only weapon with which to defend himself and his family is his power to dream, the only recourse of his spirit, his desire to love.In an eerie journey to the furthest edge of mortality, magicians, witches, bad priests, teachers, and writers walk the streets of an everyday American world playing with life, imagining death.
