'Brooklyn Knight' Book Review By Ron Fortier
BROOKLYN KNIGHT By C.J. Henderson Tor Books 2010 335 pgs
Writer C.J. Henderson (December 26, 1951 – July 4, 2014) was an American writer of horror, hardboiled crime fiction, and comic books. His comics work includes books for Marvel Comics and Valiant Comics. His best-known work in the hardboiled genre was the Jack Hagee detective series and his supernatural detective Teddy London series, as well as many other short stories and novels featuring many characters from Lovecraftian fiction and Kolchak: The Night Stalker, as well as his own.
He was also a friend. Thus, after all these years, we picked up his two Piers Knight books of which “Brooklyn Knight” was the first. It is a terrific pulp adventure filled with many of the tropes Henderson frequented in his fiction. Knight is the curator of a museum in Brooklyn as the tale begins and in classic form, he is getting acquainted with his new assistant, a lovely redhead from Montana named Brigit Elkins. It reminded me of I.V. Frost’s first meeting with the sexy Jean Moray. Bridget is awed by the grandeur of New York as Knight gives her a whirlwind tour starting from the observation lounge of the Empire State Building. She little realizes she’s about to join him in a fantastic adventure that will determine the fate of all mankind.
An ancient evil entity desires to enter our world/dimension, but to do so it must find an ancient artifact known as the Dream Stone; which of course is located in the museum. When a group of mercenaries attempt to steal the stone, they are thwarted by Knight who just happens to be an occult magician possessing his own unique and powerful talent. In the battle, Knight comes face to face with his opponent; another practioner bent upon achieving the Elder God’s wishes.
The action is fierce and fast-paced while at the same time, Henderson’s characterization of both Knight and Bridget is somehow tender. There is sensitivity to these characters we’d not seen in his earlier works and found it totally endearing. Having only completed two Piers Knight books before his passing, we will be very eager to read and review the second; hopefully before the end of the year. Meanwhile, if you’re an old C.J. Henderson and have yet to meet Piers Knight, get with it.

For ages, humans have used myths and folklore to express human stories and create space for the unknown through fantastical and surreal lenses. My body of work is inspired by the fairytales and folklore of my Japanese heritage. Additionally, with the use of anthropomorphic creatures like foxes, crows, snakes, and black cats, the personal narrative is a means to connect with the world at large. Through the use of these ethereal protagonists, I explore the cyclical nature of life and death, the masks we wear for ourselves and others, and the ways love and loss inspire our own transformations.

Aleister Crowley (born October 12, 1875, Royal Leamington Spa, England—died December 1, 1947, Hastings) was a British occultist, writer, and mountaineer, who was a practitioner of “magick” (as he spelled it) and called himself the Beast 666, drawing on the number of the beast mentioned in the Book of Revelation. He was denounced in his own time for his decadent lifestyle and had few followers, but he became a cult figure after his death.

With the Fairy Godmother by your side, you are reminded that you are worthy of love, support, and joy. 💕 Allow her energy to envelop you today, and trust that all the goodness you deserve is already on its way. You’ve got this! 🌟💖

What Do You Need To Face?

How to Pick a Pile? Some of us focus on the image that seems to call to us most, some intuitively choose regardless of picture. Don't overthink it. Choose whichever pile you feel called to. It may even be more than one!

Pile 1: You are more likeable than you know. You are afraid of opening yourself up. You need to face the fact that you are not alone. You are not the only one who thinks like you. You are not the only one who feels the way you feel and wants to find community. Searching for others like you can be scary, but they are out there searching for you too.

Pile 2: There is more to you than your bad moments. It's OK that you aren't the perfect person you want to be. You are tied to the version of you that sees imperfection and flaws. You need to face your imperfect self and be fine with them. You also need to face the good things that you have been ignoring. You have good ideas that you sit on. It's time to seriously give them your energy.

Pile 3: You have to face your own judgement. If you come to the conclusion that things need to change, you need to face that too. The way you think is blocking you from evolving and getting you to the you that you really want to be. Facing this part of you can be difficult due to other people's influence, but it's important nonetheless.
