The Demon Cult: introduction

Hi everyone, my name is Stephen F Timms and I am writing today about my first novel The Demon Cult. The inspiration to write this particular novel came from reading "Casting of the Runes", a short novel by the well-known writer of ghost stories, Montague Rhodes James (a notable British mediaeval scholar). His book was turned into a film called The Night of the Demon starring Dana Andrews and Peggy Cummins, circa 1957: still an effective horror-shocker.

My book is more of a thriller and is based on a Satanist called Aleister Crowley, 1875-1947, whose mantra was "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law", or in today's parlance, if it feels good do it!

I shall finish here as this is my first attempt at blogging but as General MacArthur once said, "I shall return".
