The Traveller's Guide to the Duat

I am utterly pleased to announce that my first book, The Traveller's Guide to the Duat, has just been released by Immanion/Megalithica.

Short story of this book:  years ago, another Kemetic and I were out to lunch, and she confided to me, "I don't know what the Book of the Dead is."  I said, "Uh, it's a cross between a hymnal, a grimoire, and 'the Lonely Planet Guide to the Underworld'."  I mentioned this in my Livejournal, and a bunch of people replied, "Ha!  I'd buy that."

Well, NOW YOU CAN.

I can say, having gotten to read bits of it in progress, that it's awesome. (And I am looking forward to my copy coming, even though it is nothing to do with my personal practice. It's an awesome construction, as well as good solid info.)

YAY YAY YAY!!! And since I totally spaced and didn't wish you a happy birthday already... HAPPY BIRTHDAY. I will be buying this and a copy of Bellica (MORAG) as soon as I can. Supporting your friends is good, but supporting your friends' art is essential.

Anyone else need me to buy something while I'm thinking about it? :p

I saw the discussion topic before I saw this notice. The description alone made me want to read it, even though I'm not really that interested in Egyptian stuff, then I find out who the author is and I go, "Oh! That's why it looked so good!"

Congratulations Darkhawk, and happy birthday! I'm really looking forward to reading your book.
