Book Overview
The dark origins of the man who would give birth to Harrow, the house of infinite hauntings.
A Victorian tale of debauchery, lust, and demonic magic right out of "the Marquis de Sade and Charles Dickens...Scintillatingly brilliant."*
Warning: Not for the faint of heart.
Justin Gravesend in his youth, haunted by strange visions, hungers for everything denied him:
Pleasure, wealth, power, and the forbidden fruit few men dare grasp. His search leads him down night alleyways, to a brothel like no other. Its rooms hold otherworldly pleasures of horror and madness, where a mysterious figure called "the Necromancer" holds sway over all. Harrow: The House of Infinite Hauntings. A series made up of four novels, four different kinds of hauntings within Harrow, a house that will never let you leave.
Harrow Origins: Two novellas tracing the dark youths of the two originators of Harrow's legend: Justin Gravesend, initiated into forbidden magic in Victorian London, and Isis Claviger, who spoke with the Dead.

Side by side, they might have been written by contemporaries, and that is the magic of Clegg's prose in this volume." -- FeoAmante.com Reviews."A terrific prequel to the Harrow House novels as readers obtain an intriguing look at Gravesend through his late nineteenth century journal and a scholarly introduction to Necromancy...Together these segments give this strong 'coming of age' horror tale a deep Victorian Era feel. Fans of the series will treasure this brilliant work, while newcomers will go chasing after the rest of the series." -- The Best Reviews.*"Like reading a cross between the Marquis DeSade and Charles Dickens.. Clegg's] prose is scintillatingly brilliant in parts and I was sucked right into this squalid tale of black magic. ...the book is worth this little gem of horror literature..." -- Alternative Reality Webzine."Justin Gravesend's story is one of perversity and debauchery and his embracing of it. Clegg does not back away from the more unsavory elements, yet keeps the language of the time (presumably the late 1800s), so that sometimes it felt as if I were reading something from Boccaccio or the like. The Necromancer is never anything less than compelling, and I finished this relatively short tale in two sittings." -- Craig's Book Club Reviews.
