Dr Taverner is an occult Sherlock Holmes, an esoteric Master who
uses his powers to aid 'untreatable' patients for whom orthodox
medical science can do nothing. Utilizing his knowledge of White
Magic, he fights an unrelenting battle against vampires,
death-hounds, body-snatchers and members of the nefarious Black
Lodge. Well-written and briskly paced, these twelve stories stand
on their own merits - but there is more to these tales than meets
the eye. Dion Fortune was herself a mage, a high initiate of the
Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and founder of the Society of the
Inner Light. The tales she tells are based on real events, and she
uses 'The Secrets of Dr Taverner' as a vehicle to introduce the
reader to magical practices and many arcane principles of occult
law. Each story in this collection is a complete case, as gripping
and as entertaining as the stories of Sherlock Holmes. They take
you into the inner worlds of the human mind - a world full of
strange twists and unexpected happenings!
