A continuation of The Great When; a dark and beguiling tour through the streets of London - fictional and real - by a legend of modern fantasy
It's 1958. A time of Rock and Roll, of protest, riot and change. and London is full of danger. Dennis Knuckleyard is finally growing up, and above all he wants to leave the Great When in the past. For nine years, he's avoided so much as thinking about the magical shadow version of London, managing even to palm off what should've been his last souvenir of that experience - an iron key he secretly brought back.
But while Dennis may believe he's done with the Great When, it's not done with him. The unsuspecting rube now in possession of the key has discovered its magical properties, bringing forth mythic, occult beings into Dennis's London and sparking riots in the capital. Worse still, Dennis hears his first love Grace has returned to the Great When to investigate strange happenings in both cities.
Desperate to keep Grace safe and return London to normal, Dennis follows her back into the hidden city. But once it has him back, The Great When will not let him go away again so easily. He and Grace must fight to set things right or forever lose everything.

The Occultist by Max Théon is a remarkable rediscovered work from the hidden history of Western esotericism, now published in book form for the first time. Originally serialized in 1899 in the Journal du Magnétisme, this unusual text blends mystical narrative with visionary occult philosophy, offering a rare glimpse into Théon’s unique cosmology and spiritual teachings. Théon—an enigmatic figure associated with the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor and the founder of the Cosmic Movement—played a fascinating role in the development of modern esoteric thought alongside his wife Alma Théon, whose teachings together formed what became known as the Cosmic Tradition. This edition presents the text in a new English translation by Daniel Kennedy and includes an introduction by Andraž Marchetti, the companion piece “A Vision,” and a helpful glossary that illuminates Théon’s symbolic language. Blending occult speculation, mystical insight, and fin-de-siècle esoteric imagination, The Occultist offers readers and collectors a rare opportunity to engage with the writings of one of the most mysterious figures of the late-nineteenth-century occult revival.
