“Kingdom of Shadows must be called a spy novel, but it transcends genre, as did some Graham Greene and Eric Ambler classics.”—The Washington Post Paris, 1938. As Europe edges toward war, Nicholas Morath, an urbane former cavalry officer, spends his days working at the small advertising agency he owns and his nights in the bohemian circles of his Argentine mistress. But Morath has been recruited by his uncle, Count Janos Polanyi, a diplomat in the Hungarian legation, for operations against Hitler’s Germany. It is Morath who does Polanyi’s clandestine work, moving between the beach cafés of Juan-les-Pins and the forests of Ruthenia, from Czech fortresses in the Sudetenland to the private gardens of the déclassé royalty in Budapest. The web Polanyi spins for Morath is deep and complex and pits him against German intelligence officers, NKVD renegades, and Croat assassins in a shadow war of treachery and uncertain loyalties, a war that Hungary cannot afford to lose. Alan Furst is frequently compared with Eric Ambler, Graham Greene, and John le Carré, but Kingdom of Shadows is distinctive and entirely original. It is Furst at his very best. Praise for Kingdom of Shadows “Kingdom of Shadows offers a realm of glamour and peril that are seamlessly intertwined and seem to arise effortlessly from the author’s consciousness.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times “Subtly spun, sensitive to nuances, generous with contemporary detail and information discreetly conveyed. . . . It’s hard to overestimate Kingdom of Shadows.”—Eugen Weber, Los Angeles Times “A triumph: evocative, heartfelt, knowing and witty.”—Robert J. Hughes, The Wall Street Journal “Imagine discovering an unscreened espionage thriller from the late 1930s, a classic black- and- white movie that captures the murky allegiances and moral ambiguity of Europe on the brink of war. . . . Nothing can be like watching Casablanca for the first time, but Furst comes closer than anyone has in years.”—Walter Shapiro, Time

NINE GATES OF THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS... The reissue compact nostalgia "Amethyst Edition" of the original 2009 "Necronomicon Shadows: The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows" (Liber-9) companion to the authentic Sumerian/Babylonian Liber-N "Necronomicon" (Lapis Edition), the now infamous bestselling classic that launched itself from the modern underground movement known as the Mardukites. "More than simply a book imagined by a fantasy horror writer, or the product of some intensive Mesopotamian investigations in the 1970's, the NECRONOMICON is a piece of human consciousness, a primordial archetype that has existed in the backwaters of the mind for thousands of years. During a "new age" of revivals in ancient paganism and earth oriented spirituality, people have flocked to the ranks of neo-paganism, Wicca, Druidry and Scientology, and for good reason: the state of the world is in demand for a complete shift in human awareness. And while H.P. Lovecraft may have been alluding to such a tradition nearly one hundred years ago (even if only subconsciously) and the 1960's witnessed a gigantic practical rebirth in such traditions, it was really in the late 1970's that a separate but synchronous mainstream awakening occurred: the renewed interest in the the most antiquated Sumerian and Babylonian mysteries, specifically the role of the ANUNNAKI, Great Gods who once roamed the Earth and became the figures of our ancient mythologies..." The Mardukite Research Organization was founded on the Summer Solstice in 2008 during the underground release of "Arcanum" by Joshua Free. At its inception, the group was extraordinarily small but pointedly grew exponentially as soon as it began to make an online internet presence. In 2009, the Mardukite Chamberlains began releasing their underground publications as part of an extraordinarily extensive version of what many people's debut into the realm of Mesopotamian esoterica had been - the Necronomicon. The original versions of the 2009 'Mardukite Core' were all elaborately designed limited edition handcrafted tomes that later only appeared in the consolidated anthology titled 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible'. It consisted of the 'Necronomicon (of Joshua Free)' (Liber-N) in June of 2009 and three subsequent titles, 'Necronomicon Liturgy & Lore' (Liber-L), the 'Necronomicon Gatekeeper's Grimoire' (Liber-G) and the 'Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows' or 'Necronomicon Shadows' (Liber-9). Although the entire 'Year-1' anthology has been available exclusively as the 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible' for over four years, the 'Mardukite Truth Seeker Press' has decided to release a 'nostalgia edition' in 2012 of the original 'Mardukite Core' for those who are new to the mysteries and to rekindle the original flavor of the mystique that was ascertained by those involved with the early development of the materials. In early 2012 a condensed, compact and abridged edition of the 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible' appeared on the scene as a reissue of the original 'lapis edition'. To coincide with this effort, a similarly designed reissue of the remaining 2009 'gem series' (as it was called then) is intended for release. Following popular demand, the previously released 2012 'Lapis Edition' Necronomicon actually included more material than simply 'Liber-N' and thus differed from the original edition, these companions: 'Liber L', 'Liber G' and 'Liber-9', were all designed to match the original format and content as much as possible given the preexisting difference in production style. EDITION NOTE: This is a compact and abridged version excerpting key elements from the complete "Year 1" work of the Mardukite Chamberlains released in the Liber-N]L+G+9 anthology as the "Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible" edited by Joshua Free.
