Book Synopsis War over Lemuria by : Richard Toronto
Download or read book War over Lemuria written by Richard Toronto and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-05-09 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life magazine described the Shaver Mystery as "the most celebrated rumpus that rocked the science fiction world." Its creators said it was a "new wave in science fiction." Critics called it "dangerous nonsense" and labeled its fans the lunatic fringe. Whatever else the Shaver Mystery was, it became a worldwide sensation between 1945 and 1948, one of the greatest controversies to hit the science fiction genre. Today these stories of the remnants of a sinister ancient civilization living in caverns under the Earth are an all but forgotten sidebar to the historical record. The Shaver Mystery began as a series of science fiction yarns in Amazing Stories nearly 70 years ago. The men behind it, Ray Palmer and Richard Shaver, were derided and seldom understood by a fandom that did its best to sweep them under the carpet of history. Though Ray Palmer was one of the earliest and biggest names in SF fandom, credited with many firsts in his field, his fannish brethren have roundly ignored him, thanks to the Shaver Mystery. What is the truth behind these men and their "mystery"? This is the question writers and editors that promoted the Shaver Mystery try to answer as they reveal the behind-the-scenes story of the phenomenon known as "Shaverism."
Download or read book Rokfogo written by Richard Toronto and published by . This book was released on 2014-08-31 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1960, science fiction writer Richard Sharpe Shaver discovered "rock books" on his Wisconsin farm. He concluded they were not just rocks, but intelligently designed documents, the recorded history of an ancient, pre-deluge civilization. For 15 years he decoded the rock book texts and images he found embedded in stone, and soon began painting and photographing what he found. It was an alien world that few other than Shaver could see. Shaver also wrote essays to compliment his paintings. He wrote of the people and customs of Earth's pre-history-the half human, half fish Mermen and women-documenting their daily lives in intimate detail. He left behind a body of work that has languished in obscurity for decades. Richard Toronto has gathered together the largest collection of Shaver's art ever to see print. Presented in two volumes, with more than 300 illustrations, Rokfogo: The Mysterious Pre-Deluge Art of Richard S. Shaver presents the paintings, photographs, and essays that made up Richard Shaver's ante-diluvian cosmology. Now considered an Outsider artist, Shaver was a pulp fiction writer during Amazing Stories' golden era. Shunned by mainstream science fiction fans for his radical ideas, Shaver died in obscurity in 1975, leaving behind his legacy of the "sensual art of the ancients."
Download or read book Shavertron written by Richard Toronto and published by . This book was released on 2013-11-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science fiction fan clubs have cranked out thousands of fanzines since Ray Palmer mimeographed the very first issue in 1930. Out of these thousands, only three were dedicated to the science fiction phenomenon known as the Shaver Mystery. There was a reason for this: SF fandom blackballed the Shaver Mystery and its namesake, Richard Shaver from the SF community. The first Shaver Mystery fanzine to enter this hostile environment was the original and best of the lot--The Shaver Mystery Magazine. Produced by The Shaver Mystery Club, it was typeset and printed on an offset press. It ran for nine issues (a 10th is rumored to exist) between 1947 and 1949. The Shaver Mystery Club Letterzine followed shortly thereafter. Typed and mimeographed by a small group of Shaver fans, it produced 16 issues. But by 1950, Dick Shaver had abdicated his throne as leader of the Shaverism movement to become a farmer. Without the Shaver Mystery Club to support his fan base, the notion of a Shaver fanzine died out for good. Or so everyone thought. Fast forward to 1979, the year the first issue of Shavertron: The Only Source of Post-Deluge Shaverania rolled off a modern Xerox machine. The world had changed in the 29 years since the last Shaver Mystery fanzine saw print. Richard Shaver was no longer among the living and the disco era was well underway. Then a young fanzine editor named Richard Toronto began to redefine the Shaver Mystery for the post-modern age. Shavertron became the longest-lived Shaver Mystery fanzine, with 29 issues to its credit. Out-of-print for nearly 25 years, this elusive icon of the Shaver Mystery saga is now being offered in four volumes, the second is already in print, while the third and fourth will appear in 2015.

Download or read book Pale Horse Rider written by Mark Jacobson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are living in a time of unprecedented distrust in America... Faith in the government is at an all-time low, and political groups on both sides of the aisle are able to tout preposterous conspiracy theories as gospel, without much opposition. “Fake news” is the order of the day. This book is about a man to whom all of it points, the greatest conspiracist of this generation and a man you may not have heard of. A former U.S. naval intelligence worker, Milton William Cooper published his manifesto Behold a Pale Horse in 1991. Since then it has gone on to sell hundreds of thousands of copies, becoming the number-one bestseller in the American prison system. According to Behold a Pale Horse, JFK was assassinated—because he was about to reveal that extraterrestrials were about to take over the earth—by his driver, an alien himself; AIDS is a government conspiracy to decrease the population of blacks, Hispanics, and homosexuals; and the Illuminati are secretly involved with the U.S. government to manage relationships with extraterrestrials. Cooper died in a shootout with Apache County police in 2001, one month after September 11, in the year in which he had predicted catastrophe. In Pale Horse Rider, journalist Mark Jacobson not only tells the story of Cooper’s fascinating life but also provides the social and political context for American paranoia. Indeed, with the present NSA situation and countless other shadowy government dealings often in the news, aren’t we right to suspect that things may not be as they seem?

Book Synopsis A Means to Freedom by : H. P. Lovecraft
Download or read book A Means to Freedom written by H. P. Lovecraft and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-22 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard are two of the titans of weird fiction of their era. Dominating the pages of Weird Tales in the 1920s and 1930s, they have gained worldwide followings for their compelling writings and also for the very different lives they led. The two writers came in touch in 1930, when Howard wrote to Lovecraft via Weird Tales. A rich and vibrant correspondence immediately ensued. Both writers were fascinated with the past, especially the history of Roman and Celtic Britain, and their letters are full of intriguing discussions of contemporary theories on this subject. Gradually, a new discussion came to the fore-a complex dispute over the respective virtues of barbarism and civilisation, the frontier and settled life, and the physical and the mental. Lovecraft, a scion of centuries-old New England, and Howard, a product of recently settled Texas, were diametrically opposed on these and other issues, and each writes compellingly of his beliefs, attitudes, and theories. The result is a dramatic debate-livened by wit, learning, and personal revelation-that is as enthralling as the fiction they were writing at the time. All the letters have been exhaustively annotated by the editors.

Book Synopsis This Tragic Earth by : Richard S. Shaver
Download or read book This Tragic Earth written by Richard S. Shaver and published by Grave Distractions Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS TRAGIC EARTH: The Art and World of Richard Sharpe Shaver, is finally back in print in a new, expanded and improved edition! HIS TRAGIC EARTH gives a unique, long-overdue look into the art and mind of Richard S. Shaver. Featuring a transcription of an actual hand-made book proposal by Shaver, sent to Ray Palmer, this volume also contains 190 images including over 100 lost images taken from one-of-a-kind "rogfogo" or "rock books" by Shaver. These images, taken from photo exposures of slices of solid rock, contain eerie and inexplicable images of people, monsters, creatures, structures, and devices-images which defy all rational explanation. Shaver claimed that these "books" were records left in crystal holography by an ancient race of beings who preceded man on this planet, or were contemporary with our ancestors. Also featured are long-lost articles on how to find and create such images, written and illustrated by Shaver himself, along with unique correspondence, interviews, and other material that give a unique look into the mind and theories of Richard S. Shaver, his one-of-a-kind "outsider artwork," and his infamous "Shaver Mystery." Much of the additional material has not been seen for decades, and when it was available, it was not widely circulated and was only seen by a few people, particularly the explanations and theories which were written by Richard Shaver for science-fiction fanzines of the 1940s. In addition, new transcripts of the complete text of material which only appeared in scanned-text form before are now included here, for ease of reading. Shaver's own peculiarities of writing style and syntax are faithfully transcribed. The contents of this book should interest anomalies researchers, Forteans, paranormal enthusiasts and investigators, science-fiction historians and fans, and all those interested in "outsider art." Nothing as utterly dedicated to Shaver's own thoughts and artwork has ever been produced before. Thanks very much for your interest in this book, and happy reading!
Book Synopsis The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone: Selected Writings of John A. Keel by : John Keel
Download or read book The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone: Selected Writings of John A. Keel written by John Keel and published by . This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Saucerian Press proudly presents "The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone," a collection of magazine articles and lectures by John A. Keel, the man many consider to have been not only the premiere investigator of all things unusual and "Fortean," but who was also our very own, twentieth-century "Mark Twain." Many of the articles in this anthology and its companion volumes, "Flying Saucer to the Center of Your Mind" and "Searching for the String," were revolutionary, and explored ideas popularized in Keel's classic books. Written in Keel's engaging trademark style, they are sure to delight fans with their fresh, unparalleled insights into the nature of reality. In these pages, John Keel displays the keen observational skills and investigative tenacity that made him the enfant terrible of ufology for decades. In this no-holds-barred analysis - much of it written almost 50 years ago - Keel shreds most of the sacred-cow beliefs still held by many in ufological and "cryptozoological" circles today, and presents theories so radical that they are only now becoming accepted: the "4-D" or "interdimensional" thesis; the "breakaway civilization" theory; the possible role of "ancient aliens" in human history; the synthetic and/or hallucinatory nature of many "alien abduction" and "Men in Black" encounters; the role of spy agencies in paranormal research; and the alarming connection between UFOs, animal mutilations, and attacks on unsuspecting humans. In short, "The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone" is witty, incisive, impassioned, and prescient, and cohesively brings Keel's message into focus in a way that perhaps no other book has. This 2013 edition features illuminating forewords by noted researchers Leon Davidson and Doug Skinner, as well as an introduction by the editor, Andy Colvin. "The real deal... A true, cutting-edge original." -Jeffery Pritchett, The Church of Mabus "After Keel introduced me to The Superspectrum, I was never quite the same..." -Adam Gorightly "Goes deep into the mystery... A fascinating read..." -Tessa B. Dick "Insightful... A leading light of 4-D saucering..." -Jim Moseley, Saucer Smear "My favorite all-time human being..." -Skylaire Alfvegren, L.A.

Book Synopsis Cult of the Witch Queen by : Richard S. Shaver
Download or read book Cult of the Witch Queen written by Richard S. Shaver and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-11 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a tale of two planets, Earth and Venus, and of a man who found himself the plaything of the ugliest and oldest woman on the two worlds. She looked like a witch, and a capable witch has spells. This witch had had six centuries to study the ancient magic: the incredibly antique mechanisms left by the race whom we remember in vague myths only as--the Gods. One day I met a man who told me this story. Knowing as I do that the antique caverns and the ancient mech of the God race does exist; knowing that trees are rejuvenated by the grafting on of young trees, I could not help but see the possibility of the truth of this story. That children can be grafted on to aging people, and the young sap, the vital growth secretions of their bodies, used to make the modern vampire life on and on. Originally published in Amazing Stories in August 1946.
