... SWIRLED NEWS FROM THE FRONT LINE ... Michael Glickman has
increasingly lived and breathed crop circles since his first
exposure to them over 15 years ago. This is his hilarious crop
circle journal or occasional blog - adapted, edited and compiled
from columns in various underground crop circle journals, including
the legendary Cereologist, the highly subversive Sussex Circular
and the eclectic Swirled News. Witty, incisive, and profoundly
thought-provoking, Cornography throws a special light on to that
old chestnut, more important today than ever: How does mankind deal
with miracles? "The funniest book I've read for decades" Ofmil C.

With a history as rich, yet bloody, as Northumberland has, it comes
as little surprise that the county is widely regarded as being one
of the most haunted in Britain. In 'Paranormal Northumberland',
local author Rob Kirkup draws on contemporary and historical
sources to investigate some of the famous and lesser-known haunted
locations in the county today. This compilation includes ghostly
monks that walk the grounds of Blanchland Abbey after being killed
by bandits and the Pink Lady of Bamburgh Castle who is seen
eternally falling from the castle to the rocks below. He also
explores Chillingham Castle, regarded as one of the scariest places
in the country, if not the world, where the torturer John Sage
lurks in its ancient dungeons to this day. Illustrated throughout,
this book will be of interest to anyone who wants to discover more
about the county's haunted and hidden heritage.
