Mervyn Peake tragically passed away before being able to finish his planned 5 book Gormenghast series. He managed 2 books at full health and worked in a third, but this had its issues. Today I discuss this ‘trilogy’ and my issues with it being called that.

In Gormenghast, Mervyn Peake doubles down on his surreal vision, crafting a gothic maze where time moves in sluggish circles and tradition is a trap. The castle is both character and prison, and its inhabitants, bizarrely fixated on status, seem destined to stumble through their own eccentricities. Steeped in dark humor and absurdity, the novel is a thrilling, labyrinthine journey, as much about unraveling the world’s complexity as it is about losing oneself in it.

The fantasy tour for 2025 kicks off with this crumbling vestige of fantasy literature that endures against the masses. Ghormengast is the great castle that outlasts all, and within its hallowed halls, the ritualistic mundane life of the Earl of Groan is carried out daily. Around him, a fantastically absurd cast of characters go about their day in one of the richest fantasy novels to date.

Weird StudiesDoomed to Enchantment: The Psychical Research of William James
The great American thinker William James knew well that no intellectual pursuit is purely intellectual. His interest in the "supernormal," whether it take the form of spiritual apparition or extrasensory perception, was rooted in a personal desire to uncover the miraculous in the mundane. Indeed, the early members of the British Society for Psychical Research and its American counterpart (which James co-founded in 1884) were united in this conviction that certain phenomena which most scientists of their day considered unworthy of their attention were in fact the frontier of a new world, an avenue for humanity's deepest aspirations.
