About this Fantasy Fiction Series
The Sorcerers and Magi Series
Welcome to the Inner Plane and its tempestuous society of sorcerers and magi. In this cross-genre fantasy fiction novel series, magical fantasy is woven with insights from Eastern mysticism and the Western mystery tradition. The series, written in literary style, offers thought-provoking ideas about self and finding oneself and one’s true purpose and is geared to adult fantasy fiction readers drawn to magic, mysticism, and spirituality. A hidden gem that not only entertains but enlightens. Consider it "Harry Potter for Grownups."
"Magi were concerned with intrapersonal and transpersonal processes—rarified mystical experiences and transformations. Their goal was to one day transcend the phenomenological world and merge into the Supreme Illumination. Sorcerers wanted to work magic and revel in the potentials of creativity, consciousness, and experience. They wanted to become an increasingly greater Self—empowered, untouchable, and enrapt in unfettered bliss."

The Fallen Fairy
The Fallen Fairy is the second novel in the fantasy fiction Sorcerers and Magi series. It is a tale about the discovery of hapless fairy that incarnates as a woman in the world of “Commons.” Sorcerers from the Inner Plane swoop in to vie for her affections in the interests of love, occult power, and opportunism. Transferences of inscrutable powers through intimate acts place the fairy and the pair of sorcerers with whom she ultimately joins under the scrutiny of both the Lions of Light and its adversaries. But more than this, through the drama, those magical men she encounters undergo profound transformations and come to know who they truly are and want to be. As savior, a redeemer, and a siren, the story’s oddly alluring heroine circumspectly aids the Lions of Light and sets the stage for radical and illuminating transformations of all who come into contact with her. References to alchemy, medieval occultism, steganography, and sex magic permeate the text. Each of the 22 chapters is named for and thematically reflects a card of the Tarot’s Upper Arcana.

The Savior at the End of Time
Chaos Magic meets Jesus Christ Superstar. The Savior at the End of Time, the third novel in the fantasy fiction Sorcerers and Magi series, is a veiled take on the Christ-story in which the unassuming and disheveled but oddly charismatic iconoclast, Professor Aurelio Zosimo, introduced in book one, is haplessly rendered into a new messiah for the Lions of Light agenda and the “Immanentization of the Eschaton.” The novel references the post-modern magical counterculture current of Chaos Magic. In this installment of the series, Leo de Lux and Sofia La Maga are at odds about their designs regarding Aurelio Zosimo. Both find themselves in over their heads as plot line of the series progresses toward an apocalyptic showdown and the revelation of portentous secrets.
