Louise Darwen / Serge Marcotoune
We go back in time to an intriguing event which has become a potent but obscure nugget of occult lore: The Occult Imprisonment of Madame Blavtasky, as first detailed by C.G. Harrison in his seminal esoteric work, Transcendental Universe.The unlikely hero, Marcus Marconi, discovers life-changing secrets about his ancestors and embarks upon a transatlantic quest as he is drawn to fulfil the initiatory trials of a mysterious occult ’chain’ and free Madame Blavatsky from prison along the way. From the Lamasery in New York to occult bookshops in London and Virginia Beach, we meet a cast of characters - the Eidolons - who range from legendary magicians of the Russian Silver Age and cult investigative journalists, to stars of the Silver Screen and the Company of Avalon.The Eidolons includes long extracts from esoteric masterworks that include Serge Marcotoune’s La science secrète des initiés et la pratique de la vie and Vladimir Shmakov’s Pneumatology, and a description of the legendary occult school, EMESH Redivivus.
