The Chemical Wedding

Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden is involved in the production of a movie inspired by Aleister Crowley.

The movie is reportedly about a professor in an English university, whom, after a failed experiment, becomes obsessed with Crowleys soul. Crowley himself was very much into redhaired women, and obviously the professor becomes enchanted by a very beautiful, red-haired student.

Sepulchre

Despite finding Labyrinth terriby dull (like Dan Brown on tranquilizers, sort of) I might consider reading Kate Mosse's next novel, after all.

Having cracked the time-slip device with Labyrinth, Mosse's new work, Sepulchre - a time-slip adventure novel set in fin-de-siecle France and the present day - may well be even better. "It's about a woman writing a biography of Debussy, who was very interested in the occult, which was very popular in France at that time. Labyrinth was a Grail story. This one is the real Tarot."
