In The Committee Against Evil 2 Book Series, world-famous, best-selling author Raymond Buckland brings his creative writing talents to the world of fiction for two intriguing tales.
In Book I: The Committee: The Cold War may be over for most of us, but in the world of The Committee, the Cold War is in full swing and the weapons of power include astral projection and psychokinesis. The battleground is on the earth, in space, and on the astral plane. The prize for this war is the very future of the United States.
The story begins with just a slight irregularity. Stopping a satellite launch is not unusual-but when two routine communications satellite launches are aborted for no reason, the government does something very secretive; it forms the Committee, a team of psychic experts to find out what caused the missions to be halted. As this group of talented people from around the nation begins what would become the supernatural adventure of a lifetime, they discover a plan by incredibly powerful psychics, under the control of an evil dictator, to control the U.S.
Unfortunately, they have only days to stop the coup. Can this group of strangers, drawn together for a common cause, defeat the most powerful enemy ever? There is but one chance, and that is to defeat them at their own game-but is there enough time?

Fierce hurricanes, ruinous tornadoes, and flooding rains are sweeping the United States, costing thousands of lives and billions of dollars. As it becomes clear that these eerily violent and frequent storms are unnatural, the Committee (a cover group of psychics formed by the U. S. government to neutralize malignant paranormal forces) joins minds to determine how and why these devastating magical catastrophes are plaguing America -- and who's behind them.
Meet Patrizio Ganganelli, a crazed Roman Cardinal obsessed with avenging his mother's rape by American soldiers during World War II. As the Cardinal plunders the Vatican's secret magic library to evoke demonic forces against the United States, the Committee joins forces with a Priestess of Witchcraft to counter the Cardinal's attack. But even the power of the Great Goddess may not be enough to defeat the ancient evil that's been set loose. As the Committee gathers every ounce of their psychic talent and courage, they realize that this is the most important fight of their lives -- and that the outcome will influence the fate of the world itself.
"Cardinal's Sin is a real page turner of a read -- Midwest Book Review"

Alec Chambers is in a quandry - his bookstore had been broken into, his storekeeper killed, and everything points to the man behind the mayhem being one of his best customers, Mr. Mathers.
But when a very special journal is stolen from his own home, he finds himself in a race across Europe with Mathers and his Golden Dawn compatriots. But how are they to find the answer to the strange cypher code that is their only clue, and what is the identity of the mysterious red-haired woman?
Like the very finest Dan Brown story, only set in the age of Queen Victoria, our intrepid hero finds himself pitting his wit and wisdom against Mathers, Crowley and an assortment of unsavory characters, in a race against the clock to thwart a devilish plan hatched by none other than the infamous Illuminati!

Tarot cards have been a staple of the divination market for years, as has been the I-Ching, numerology, astrology, tea-leaf reading and palmistry. More recently runes have joined these and become very popular. In 1982 Ralph Blum's The Book of Runes started the trend and a wide variety of books on reading runes is now available.
Almost as old as tarot cards are the dominoes, the first records of their use being found in China in the early twelfth century. Although today familiar to most people only as a game, dominoes were originally used by the Chinese for divination and fortune-telling. The reading of dominoes comes under the heading of sortilege and, as such, can be traced back to early Greek and Roman methods of divining the future.
Divination with dominoes would seem to be a natural follow-on to the popularity of runes. Domino sets are much more readily available than are runes, which are usually manufactured solely for divination use. To be able to do similar readings but with such an accessible tool could not only fulfill the needs of those who are always searching for new lines of psychic development but could also be instrumental in introducing previously hesitant would-be diviners into the field.
One of the unique features of domino divination is the fact that more than one person may be "read" at the same time.
