We thought we’d found our haven, a cottage deep in the heart of the forest. Charming, maybe a little run down, but so peaceful. That was the first part of the Magic. Midge’s painting and my music soared to new heights of creativity. That was another part of the Magic. Our love for each other - well, that became the supreme Magic. But the cottage had an alternative side. The Bad Magic. What happened to us there was horrendous beyond belief. The miracles, healings, the crazy sect who wanted our home for themselves, the hideous creatures that crawled from the nether regions, and the bats – oh God, the bats! Even now those terrible things seem impossible to me. Yet they happened... -

It was The Dark... Fluke: He was a puppy; different from other dogs, different from other animals. The men called him Fluke and that was apt, for Fluke was a man, with a man's feelings and intelligence trapped inside the body of a dog. Cover art by Kevin Jones. -
