The Image of the Beast Blown: An Exorcism: Ritual One, Vol. 1 FROM THE PUBLISHER
"Private dick Herald Childe is sent a snuff movie of his partner being hideously murdered. His pursuit of the killers leads him into a waking nightmare of sexual brutality and supernatural bestiality, as he becomes entangled with sex-starved she-ghosts, snake-women, a filthy human sow, and a woman who gives birth to a limbless, ectoplasmic simulacrum of satanic child-killer Gilles de Rais." In Image Of The Beast and its sequel, Blown - both published in this volume - Philip Jose Farmer conjures up a universe of unrelenting sexual degradation and horror populated by erogenous vampires, priapic werewolves and other polymorphic creatures from the darkest recesses of the human imagination.
