"There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy... Nightmares lurk in the darkness. Strange and twisted realms exist just beyond your sight. Cabals of sorcerers wage a secret war for the world. The dead rise and walk again. Unseen beings dwell all around you; real but untouchable. To know these things your dream must end. Wake to find yourself transformed. Wake to this Mortal Coil." - back cover blurb
