'You will love him, hate him, pity him, and fear him. His birth was prophesied by an ancient order who worshipped the Earth Goddess, Gaia, five hundred years in advance of his incarnation. Their descendents, a coven of witches based near the legendary Stonehenge, seek to guide him on the path of the wise, but first they have to find him. He was raised by a mother who cursed his existence, and he was empowered by magick. He dreamed of restoring the natural balance of Mother Earth and populating the planet with his magickal spawn. He was a genius, a lover of all that was beautiful, and as "Professor Midnight" he became one of the most revered "magicians" (wizards) of all time. This is the haunting tale of his heritage, his childhood, and his odyssey into witchcraft and the sciences. Enter, if you dare, the world of Professor Midnight'.
