Download: $18.75 Hardcover Print: $51.50 THE NINE GATES TO THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS was used as the centerpiece for the 1999 movie: The Ninth Gate; directed by Roman Polanski and starring Johnny Depp. This rare book was alleged to grant the owner access to the supernatural powers of The Kingdom of Shadows (Hell). The text is in coded and encrypted Latin and the 340-page manuscript contains nine medieval woodcut engravings that play a fundamental role in the process of summoning demonic forces. This book is the result of much research and a careful reconstruction and editing of the original text by Michael James Jaquish and it contains all nine original engravings shown in the movie. The spirit world holds many mysteries and this book is one of them. It is intended as a curiosity piece only and it is HIGHLY recommended that anyone purchasing this book refrain from using it to summon the forces of darkness. Michael Jaquish
accepts no responsibility or liability for any disaster that may befall anyone who may make such an attempt.

Download: $6.25 Hardcover Print: $25.83 This book contains over fifty pencil and ink sketches done by Michael James Jaquish. Some were created for specific reasons (such as a line of greeting cards or to illustrate a children’s book) but most were done simply to satisfy a powerful addiction to doodling. A number of them were created by candle light in the jungles of West Africa or equally exotic spots around the globe.
The point of this book is; you don’t have to be a “brilliant artist” to have fun sketching! Drawing comes more naturally for some than others but no one should ever be afraid of expressing themselves with a pen or pencil when the mood strikes. Drawing is a great release for tension and stress because it allows us to express the creative side of our nature that is so often suppressed in today’s society. And there is always the remote but very real possibility that just maybe, one day, if you practice enough, you really might become a wonderful artist!
