It is finally here, Whisperings from the Void: The Amaranthine Arcanum of Holy Image and Revealed Exegesis, has been released via Aeon Sophia Press. It all started with the test-prints that you see below....
Once these were approved by all parties involved, the production of the actual text-blocks were created at the printers. The text-blocks, which would eventually make up the inner part of the book, were sewn using a traditional method known as Smyth Sewn, also know as Section Sewn, and is the highest quality that is available today. The pages are physically sewn into the book using binders thread and is then further reinforced with a fabric backing and adhesive to create a usable and durable book. You can see an image of this below for the actual text-blocks of the book itself...
The first hundred copies of the book were done this way, as will all further copies. It is then that the actual hardcover binding began its initial creation stages, that comprise a hardback cover, with red gilt-stamped sigil of the 'Dreaming Eye', which is the title for the standard edition, upon its cover, and the title, also in red gilt-stamp, along the spine of the book. This was all finished with very nice, clean red endpapers, to set it all off. There were a few 'bumps in the road' in this process, but the end result is amazing and presents a beautifully bound book, it is sombre, powerful, and definitely has a presence...
This is the standard edition of Whisperings from the Void and is limited to a 500 edition print run, after this there will be no more available. There is, however, a deluxe edition that is in its initial stages of creation and is being done by Eamonn Loughran of the Hell Fire Club Books Esoteric Publishers. It shall be a small and very limited edition print run, done with the highest standards available today.
