<em>"Darklore, a journal of exceptional observations, hidden history, the paranormal and esoteric science. Bringing together some of the top researchers and writers on topics from outside of mainstream science and history, </em><em>Darklore will challenge your preconceptions by revealing the strange dimensions veiled by consensus reality". </em><em> </em>

Stylishly presented, with a range of articles that should satisfy even the most broad-minded of forteans, <em>Darklore</em> will sit very comfortably between <a href="http://www.theanomalist.com" target="_blank">The Anomalist </a>and <a href="http://www.forteantimes.com">Fortean Studies</a> on a no-doubt heaving bookshelf. Catering to those already fairly well-versed in these subject matters, it presents what Greg calls "exceptional observations" on  otherwise familiar themes and material – fresh perspectives and new questions, if not answers (though who expects answers in this world?).

Contributors include Daniel Pinchbeck, Mike Jay (with a rerun of his <a href="http://www.strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/SAJ2_sell.html" target="_blank">SAJ2</a> piece on ancient Peruvian psychedelic cults), Loren Coleman, Nick Redfern, Robert Schoch, Blair Blake, Michael Grosso, Lynn Picknett &amp; Clive Prince, Greg Taylor and many others.

Anyway, <a href="http://darklore.dailygrail.com/" target="_blank">take a look</a> for yourself, but Darklore comes highly recommended.
