20 | SCB DISTRIBUTORS | SPRING 2007 Tayos Gold The Archives of Atlantis

By Stan Hall

Imagination, action and danger coalesce in this true story of the spectacular British- Ecuadorian expedition to the Tayos Caves of Ecuador.

In 1976, Scottish engineer Stan Hall organized a landmark expedition to the caves of the Tayos Indians in Ecuador, involving a dozen institutions, joint Special Forces, and astronaut Professor Neil Armstrong as Honorary President and participant.

Hall was driven by curiosity about Erich von Däniken’s report in Gold of the Gods of a Metal Library found in the caves by investigator Juan Moricz in the 1960s. Since there are no ancient written scripts in South America, this idea was considered very unorthodox. In Hall’s odyssey into the heart of these enigmas he discovers

SCB DISTRIBUTORS | SPRING 2007 | 21 How To Survive 2012 Tactics and Survival Places for the Coming Pole Shift

By Patrick Geryl

Prepare and prevail in the End of Times in 2012!

In his previous books, Patrick Geryl presented a detailed scenario set to take place in the year 2012: the complete and utter destruction which has occurred in Earth’s past and will occur again, as the sun’s magnetic poles reverse, causing massive solar flares lashing out into the solar system.

These flares will disrupt the Earth’s magnetic field and reverse the magnetic poles’ rotational direction. The Earth’s outer crust will then be thrown into chaos, with planet- wide earthquakes, volcanoes and tidal waves reshaping landmasses and seas in a matter of hours. Civilization as we know it will end, and very few humans will survive. 2012 MARKS THE END OF THE MAYAN CALENDAR – AND DISASTER! Here is a blueprint to survive the coming disaster, as Geryl explains in detail the myriad problems survivors will encounter and the precautions that need to be taken to overcome them.

Patrick Geryl How To Survive 2012 has written many books Tactics and Survival concerning the details of ancient Places for the Coming prophecies. He lives in Belgium and travels Pole Shift frequently to Egypt where he is working on a new project with the Egyptian Antiquities ISBN-10: 1-931882-68-1 Department.

22 | SCB DISTRIBUTORS | SPRING 2007 Cleopatra to Christ Jesus Was the Great Grandson of Cleopatra Deluxe Paperback Edition

By Ralph Ellis

Two explosive books in one volume!

Book One: A reconstruction of Jesus’ roots and family history. The Bible says that the infant Jesus was visited by the Magi of the East, educated in Egypt and crowned King of the Jews. The inference from these sparse facts is that Jesus was probably of both Egyptian and Persian royal blood, and was exiled to Judaea in 4 AD. There was a royal family at that time which fits all the requirements to produce this scion.

Book Two: Are the Scots and Irish Egyptians? Six hundred years ago, Walter Bower wrote a history of the Irish and Scots, drawing on records from the first millennium AD. He maintained that the THE EGYPTIAN ORIGINS OF Scottish people were descended from Queen Scota, an Egyptian princess, and the Irish SCOTLAND, IRELAND AND JESUS (Gaelic) from her husband Gaythelos. Is this a myth, or fact? Ellis demonstrates that it is true history, and that the Irish and Scots have, indeed, descended from a daughter of Pharaoh Akhenaton.

Ralph Ellis is a historian and an airline pilot Cleopatra to Christ for Easy Jet. With a life-long interest in Jesus Was the Great Grandson of Cleopatra Egyptian and Biblical history, his books Deluxe Paperback Edition explore the Egyptian origin of many historical figures.

SCB DISTRIBUTORS | SPRING 2007 | 23 In Search of Quetzalcoatl The Mysterious Heritage of American Civilization

By Pierre Honoré

An absorbing quest into the mysterious myths and heritage of South and Central American civilizations.

Pre-historic Native American legends tell of a strange new race of men landing on the shores of the New World, bringing knowledge of science, engineering, laws, and more.

In the legends, strange bearded fair-skinned, blue-eyed men wearing black gowns arrived in huge ships with swan wings. In the Yucatan jungle, elders call these legendary men Quetzalcoatl, Viracocha, Kukulkan, and other ancient names. Who were these men? Where did they come from, and when did they arrive?

In part an account of the Indian civilizations of Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Mexico, Yucatan and THE SEARCH FOR THE GOD KINGS Honduras; and in part an absorbing piece of OF ANCIENT MEXICO AND PERU historical detection, Honoré’s research suggests that the legendary gods of the Indians once existed in reality and reveals a solution to the mystery of who they were.

“With art by the late great Dave Sheridan, this 1971 game may be the most famous pot-related board game of all time.” – Cannabis Culture

Indulge your youthful nostalgia and enter the world of Dave Sheridan’s classic comic book character, Dealer McDope, reenacting hilarious – and possibly familiar – scenarios with each roll of the dice.

Lots of folks reminisce today about how it all went down in some exotic and dangerous locale. But only one thing is for sure: McDope went to all those places, played and panicked, scored and whored – and now that he’s legit he wants to pass along the way it was really done. WHEEL, DEAL, AND KEEP IT REAL! Leave Doobietown, USA and journey to an intriguing port of call, score caches of weed and return home ready to sell. Sounds simple, and it is, as long as karma, skill, and the roll of the dice are on your side, and you don’t get hassled at any borders, ripped off by your partners, or busted.

By Jacques Yonnet Translated by Christine Donougher

“The greatest book ever written about Paris.”– Raymond Queneau

“Among the books you must read before you die.”– Raphael Sorin

Written during the 1940s, and originally published in France in the 50’s and again in the 60’s, Paris Noir reveals the darker quarters of Paris’ Left Bank.

Yonnet describes Paris between the wars – familiar from film noir, but now vanished. He concentrates his talents on people, a mixture of ordinary workers, tradesmen, artists, con- men and criminals, and invests the area with a sense of mystery, including occasional supernatural events.

This seminal book, often using Parisian patois and local slang, is the perfect counterpart to J.K.Huysmans Parisian Sketches (Dedalus, IN ENGLISH FOR THE FIRST TIME 2005), which showed the darker side of Paris’ grand boulevards.

By William Heinesen Translated by Glyn Jones

“William Heinesen’s novels are intensely Faeroese, but so universal in their appeal that the reader automatically surrenders to their charm, their energy, their easy intensity – and is overwhelmed by their perspective.”– The Independent

Heinesen makes the everyday world of Torshavn at the beginning of the 20th century the stuff of Greek tragedy.

Devotion to music by a group of amateur musicians is at the heart of this folksy, yet universal, story. The players prevent a series of dramatic events from turning into horrible situations, as music enables each musician to rise above his own bleak existence.

There is humor, also, in the satirical, larger- than-life portrayal of the local sectarians, led NEW TRANSLATION OF A 20TH by the bank manager Ankersen, as they seek CENTURY SCANDINAVIAN MASTERPIECE in vain to break the spirits of the quartet members, as well as earthy amusement in the huge blacksmith completely at the mercy of his petty-minded wife.

By Travis Jeppesen

“Jeppesen has a gift for balancing accessibility with lyricism, and the laconic speech of teenagers with philosophical density.”– Punk Planet Magazine

“The most exciting first novel I’ve read in a decade or more. This is a brilliant, haunting, and, strangest of all, very funny novel.”– Dennis Cooper

An absurdist drama of seemingly banal interactions via two parallel stories that never directly intersect, but hover interdependently in a polluted atmospheric stasis.

A sculptor dying of a mysterious illness leaves the city to live out his final days in solitude in an Eastern Europe village. His sole contact is with a deaf-mute, golem-like gravedigger named Vojtech, who delivers his provisions while a nameless wanderer traverses the barren streets in search of prey. INTENSE, STARTLING FICTION Rife with ghosts and illusions perdues, at times FROM THE OFF-BEAT GENERATION violent and scatological, Wolf at the Door confronts fear and devastation, destruction and creation, the decay of both spirit and body with a blend of black humor and linguistic inventiveness that dares to question what happens after the end of both art and life.

By Bruno Phillips

“A sexual biography like none I’ve ever encountered. At times it reads like Elmore Leonard just met Henry Miller.” – Oliver Maitland

The fictional account of Bernd Töst and his career as a porn-movie auteur is as colorful and strange as any in the history of pornography.

When the subject of porn came out of smoky stag backrooms, the world was still in the grip of post-war austerity. Töst’s extraordinary and original outlook on the pornography industry influenced the sexual revolution of the 1960s.

He was one of the few people to make sense of his era’s cultural and moral chaos, and AN EROTIC MOCK BIOGRAPHY AND this mock biography is the most fascinating EXPOSÉ OF THE EARLY PORN INDUSTRY exposé of the early porn industry and its players since Boogie Nights.

Bruno Phillips, of Anglo-Russian descent, began his career as a psychiatric nurse before working in advertising and PR. He lives in London.

By Joris-Karl Huysmans Translated by Brendan King

“Filled with extravagant obscenities, his books were considered an outrage against public morals, but are now compared to those of Baudelaire, Rimbaud, and Wilde.”– Suzy Macguire in The Herald

“Huysmans was obsessed by the idea of the beauty-within-ugliness of back-street Paris. He believed that the distortions of depravity there presented a truer picture of our spiritual nature than conventional religion or revolutionary excess.” – Murrough O’Brien in The Independent on Sunday

Capturing the lively linguistic inventiveness of the original, this fresh telling also includes an introduction and comprehensive notes.

First published in 1876, Marthe was a landmark in J.K. Huysmans’s career, his first book, and FIRST NEW TRANSLATION IN 50 YEARS also one of the first French novels to directly address the subject of prostitution, later a central theme for many novelists, painters and poets in France and throughout Europe.

Set in the demi-monde of the Parisian music hall, the story centers on a would-be actress who works in one of the lowest dives in Paris. She tells the story of her brief, doomed Marthe relationship with Léo, a romantic searching The Story of a Whore for a substitute for his lost illusions.
