In the dream it was always the same. A fly appeared across the room buzzing about haphazardly then spiraling towards Kozar and hovering above him for a moment before landing on the near wall. Its shadow suddenly grew, bleeding out fro its core, spreading, evolving into the shape of a beast that stood on two legs. Arms spread out from its sides and became wings, like those of a dragon flapping against the wall, faster and faster, ready to take flight, and then-- a man stepped out of the wall and into the laboratory, a man enshrouded by a shadow, unable to come into the light, always in darkness. He came with cold air around him and wearing dark sunglasses. His voice was deep and full of resonance.

Introducing...The 6th Seal by J.M. Emanuel
Introducing Thursday introduces you to a book through the first paragraph. This week's introduction comes from The 6th Seal by J.M. Emanuel:
Saturday, September 6, 1975-- Kovno, Lithuania
In the dream it was always the same. A fly appeared across the room buzzing about haphazardly then spiraling towards Kozar and hovering above him for a moment before landing on the near wall. Its shadow suddenly grew, bleeding out fro its core, spreading, evolving into the shape of a beast that stood on two legs. Arms spread out from its sides and became wings, like those of a dragon flapping against the wall, faster and faster, ready to take flight, and then-- a man stepped out of the wall and into the laboratory, a man enshrouded by a shadow, unable to come into the light, always in darkness. He came with cold air around him and wearing dark sunglasses. His voice was deep and full of resonance.
