"The Dark Mountain Project began with a manifesto published in 2009 by two English writers--Dougald Hine and Paul Kingsnorth--who felt that literature was not responding honestly to the crises of our time. In a world in which the climate is being altered by human activities; in which global ecosystems are being destroyed by the advance of industrial civilisation; and in which the dominant economic and cultural assumptions of the West are visibly crumbling, Dark Mountain asked: where are the writers and the artists? Dark Mountain's call for writers, thinkers and artists willing to face the depth of the mess we are in has made it a gathering point for a growing international network. Rooted in place, time and nature, their work finds a home in the pages of the Dark Mountain books, with two new volumes published every year. "Walking on Lava" brings together the best of the first ten volumes, along with the original manifesto. This collection of essays, fiction, poetry, interviews and artwork introduces The Dark Mountain Project's groundbreaking work to a wider audience in search of 'the hope beyond hope, the paths which lead to the unknown world ahead of us.'"--

Finn and Erin Blackwell visit the quite Scottish hamlet of Ping during their summer holidays. They soon embark on an adventure that takes them into a different world, a world where Lethavian, The Dark Spirit, protected by the Purple Crystal, rules supreme. Befriended by Willie and Cameron McDougal they embark on a quest to destroy Lethavian before he destroys them, and their world. Aided by Theodore, brother of The Dark Spirit they encounter a succession of dangers. Their every move is watched through the eyes of large raven-like birds, Black Hammers, who feed their information to their master, The Dark Spirit. They come up against and battle with LethavianOs foot soldiers, Mudthogs, a fluid creature with the ability to reform severed limbs, and their minds are tormented by Shadow Demons. On reaching Sirius a community of Shellac join forces with them, led by Narabius, their wise elder. Narabius talks directly into the minds of his Shellac race, guiding them into battle. They destroy Vandor, the fire dragon on their journey. Finally Lethavian's inner-evildom is breached, where with cunning and bravery he meets his match. The Purple Crystal is parted from The Dark Spirit, and given to Narabius for safe keeping, and Lethavian is rendered into obscurity, for now! To visit the Ravenhall website, www.ravenhall.net

Derrick Jensen takes no prisoners in The Culture of Make Believe, his brilliant and eagerly awaited follow-up to his powerful and lyrical A Language Older Than Words. What begins as an exploration of the lines of thought and experience that run between the massive lynchings in early twentieth-century America to today's death squads in South America soon explodes into an examination of the very heart of our civilization. The Culture of Make Believe is a book that is as impeccably researched as it is moving, with conclusions as far-reaching as they are shocking.

The Secret Science Behind Miracles deals with the discovery of an ancient and secret system of workable magic, which, if we can learn to use it as did the native magicians of Polynesia and North Africa, bids fair to change the world … Self-Suggestion and the New Huna Theory of Mesmerism and Hypnosis is a practical manual of self-suggestion using the Huna techniques, including detailed instructions as to how the operation works. Huna (Hawaiian for "secret") is the word adopted by the author in 1936 to describe his theory of metaphysics. "This information concerning those parts of psychology which we have come to call hypnosis, mesmerism and suggestion, is being presented as an addition to the scant literature on the ancient psycho-religious system of the Polynesians called "Huna" or the "Secret"."
