Based around the idea of an unknown author of the iconic dark book the Necronomicon. The book follows a commoner from Yemen in the courts of an Arabian king. Swept into delirious dreams and prophetic nightmares, he feels he must escape back to the comfort of the world he knows, without understanding how or why such things are happening. The book explores many of the ideas which are intrinsic to modern witchcraft and inspired by the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft, the book reads as a classic set in the background of Neil Gaiman's the Graveyard book.
