About This Book
Allen Barrow's friends are polite, shy men like himself who gather to eat in affordable restaurants and know each other as refugees from their own families, He is a clerk in a bank, dresses frugally, and has a small penis that embarrasses him. One night he meets a man whose presence rivets him. Destry Powars - handsome, vulgar, spectacularly ugly in his behavior and yet disarmingly seductive - has pulled Allen into his orbit and won't let go. Destry lives in a closed , moneyed world that Allen can only dream about; a world that he can glimpse only through the smoked glass windows of popular media. From generations of impoverished drifters, Powars has been chosen to learn the secret language of wealth, a language based on force, deception, and nerve. But who chose him and taught him these 'arts' - and what does he really want from Allen? What exactly are the strange Mr. Powars's dark powers? These are the mysteries that Allen will uncover in Warlock, a novel of international intrigue that is as paralyzing in it's suspense as it is voluptuously erotic.
Warlock is a novel about a New York awash in money and yet always a hair away from the bubble's burst of catastrophe. It is about living outside of the overhyped 'New Economy.' If you thought I.P.O. meant 'I'm Poor, Okay,' then this book will speak directly to you. This is one of Perry Brass's most compelling stories. Erotic love, surrender, and the total magic of overwhelming needs being met are its main ingredients. It is about our sweetest dreams and worst nightmares coming true...and the hard work of warlocks.
