A red letter day today as The Unlikely Occultist: A biographical novel of Alice A. Bailey now has two publishers! Next Chapter will continue with the Kindle e-book edition and Odyssey Books have taken over the paperback rights. This means my book will be available far more widely. You can purchase a copy from Amazon – https://www.amazon.com/dp/1925652777/ and you should also be able to order from Barnes and Noble and all good online booksellers. The Unlikely Occultist is soon to hit physical bookstores and libraries in Australia too. My heartfelt thanks to both publishers.
The Unlikely Occultist is based on the known story of Alice Bailey. All of the events are true as per the historical record. The author has taken some occasional artistic licence in order to create a fictionalised book. The intention behind the project was to introduce a remarkable historical figure to a fresh audience.
In loving service…
