I wish Mr. Slater wrote more novels
I enjoyed this story a great deal. Slater makes fun of many things that cry out for deflation amd treats as serious such things as astral projection and other similiar phenomena. He creates a world with vast occult conspiracies manipulating events and people through magic and witchcraft and throws in a couple of innocents with prodigal powers. The events that unfold are unpredictable and funny. Read this if you can find it.
