(book) SPECIAL EDITON The Virus
Special Edition "wolf" cover exclusive to WickedJester.com only! Special edition cover art by Andy Brase, special edition inside cover art by Tim Vigil. This blue foil titled cover is a Wicked Jester exclusive item.
Every person has been programmed to some degree. The Virus (Thorin s fourth book) is the cure for that condition. In The Virus, Thorin exposes the tricks and tactics that external forces (salesmen, religious leaders, social forces, authoritarians, product pushing corporations...) use to condition behavior. The Virus successfully straddles both psychology and sociology as it delivers the goods in Thoirn's trademark "intellectual rebellion" style. The Virus is a book which exposes (in an easy to read, yet witty and entertaining style) the way in which members of society are persuaded, conditioned, and manipulated. Many people think that they are capable of picking up on these ever-present persuasions and subtleties, but as they finish The Virus, many will look back in astonishment that their beforehand knowledge was simply the tip of the iceberg.
Although this ingenious book could be reverse-engineered by business owners, P.R. firms, and media spinsters, the true intent of this book is to enlighten its readers of "the translucent strings which model and direct behavior, persuade purchasing habits, condition thought patterns, and manipulate the mass into submissive servants". The tricks are all exposed and all the curtains are fully pulled back. The psychological wizardry is broken down, and as the virus unfolds, the snake oil salesmen are exposed. Are you ready to step free from your mental shackles? If so, then you are ready to read this book; you are ready to unleash The Virus and stop the external programming and manipulation of your own mind.

(book) Shrapnel
Shrapnel is Thorin's fifth offering. Shrapnel is a collection of over 100 essays, bullet statements, witticisms, and smaller fragments reflecting the man's keen psychological, philosophical, and sociological perceptions that are all delivered in Thorin's trademark streetwise style. Shrapnel starts out by challenging our mechanized routines, and then moves into strengthening the inner spirit (fostering self-confidence), then Thorin finally finishes off his choices of expansive subject matter by analyzing the meaning of life and helping people to discover their purpose in it.
Shrapnel also contains the philosophically-deep short story called: A Conversation With God. Shrapnel is an every-thing-but-the-kitchen-sink philosophical collection that is sure to make its readers look at life in an entirely new way. If you are tired of the cliches and standard formula that most writers seem to rehash and regurgitate, Shrapnel will be a breath of fresh air (be it a smoldering one).
