​Recently I spoke with Foster Gamble in a wide-ranging interview that covers a host of different subjects including spiritual-metaphysical questions, UFOs, solid state free energy, mass control, and how we can contribute to a thriving world. To check out  the interview in full, you can either listen to the complete audio file or scroll down and read it's key parts in the edited transcript presented below.

The Thrive I movie has taken the world by storm ever since its release in 2011. Seen by over 91 million people and translated into 27 languages, the Thrive Movement, including the sequel Thrive II, has clearly struck a cord not just with free thinkers and counter-culture types, but with scientists, philosophers  and researchers from all over the globe, which has also culminated in over 1100 Thrive-inspired 'Solutions Groups' in over 90 countries.

 “Based on a substantial body of experimental
evidence, we can state with a high degree
of confidence that real magic exists”
– Prof. Dean Radin, Chief Scientist of the
Institute of Noetic Sciences
 
The nature of reality extends beyond the physical world.  But what if there’s a greater cosmic truth, what has been alluded to in secret and sacred histories and has been described by many writers such as Jonathan Black – a world of knowledge, practices and extraordinary abilities that have been kept alive through ages by ritualized religion, psychic mediumship and direct mystical experiences? 

​In Real Magic, Prof. Dean Radin explores magic from an evidence-based scientific perspective. His chief concern is the investigation of psychic phenomena (psi), the study of which comes under the discipline of parapsychology. ​As Nikola Tesla famously said on the subject: ​“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”

At the heart of all great genre fiction you will  find a great premise. Back in 2001, author Philip Reeve created a a marvelously original world set in the far future where our civilization has gone and is replaced with cities which have been rebuilt as massive vehicles that hunt smaller cities and towns. In this world,  centuries after a devastating '60-minute war', life has changed and societal structures reset  to such a great extent that much of human history, aside from discovered and 'rediscovered' technological innovations, has been largely forgotten. I speak of course of Mortal Engines.

Publishing simultaneously with the release of the Mortal Engines motion picture is the prequel novella, Night Flights, which explores the back story of Anti-traction League Agent and airship pilot, Anna Fang.

Philip Reeve's current written project is a sci fi trilogy which follows the adventures of the rebel and thief, Zen Starling, who hails from a backwater industrial town. He travels to other planets to purloin wares  via  sentient trains which travel on a hyperspace railways that lead through worm-made 'K-gate' portals. But soon his luck begins to change when he finds himself employed by a mysterious figure called Raven.

 The trilogy begins with Railhead and is followed by books two and three: Blacklight Express and Station Zero. All books, including those written in the world of Mortal Engines, are currently available in all bookstores.

 From the very beginning of Moonshine, we are plunged into an alternate timeline of America’s roaring twenties. Ashland’s Soot City is wreathed in the otherworldly. The atmosphere is all volcanic smog and watercoloured nights. Gas lit alleyways shine light on the clientele spilling out of disreputable establishments at twilight. Jalopies race through the streets. Spells are cast. It’s a veritable breeding ground for cloak and dagger and morbid crimes done in the dark.

What is most impressive about Jasmine Gower’s debut fantasy romance is the magic weaved into every sentence. The imagery lingers and character’s motives keep readers guessing.  To read more about this spellbinding novel set in a warped version of Chicago, check out the full interview and feature below. 

Jennette Ng's descriptive powers helped to build the mist-wreathed, mysterious land of Arcadia. There are times when the 'real' crosses over into delightful absurdism that reminds readers of the work of Lewis Carol or Hayao Miyazaki. But above all one of the most captivating elements of this book is its novel and alluring premise: Victorian missonairies travel to the Faelands to convert the fae folk to Christianity.

Under the Pendulum Sun is a newly-released Victorian Gothic fantasy, published by Angry Robot. The story follows Catherine Helstone who travels from Yorkshire to Arcadia to find out what happened to her brother, the resident Reverend of Gethsemane castle.
