This volume includes a novella and a short story set in the fictional universe of Robert Stikmanz. The novella, Rose Moon, is a lyrical, erotically charged, psychedelic mashup, weaving shifting realities, passionate sex and a battle between ancient gods in a post-petroleum future. Set fifty years on, the short story, "Death on the Toilet," finds the same protagonist from Rose Moon tapped to substitute for doom itself.

Since it first appeared in 2000, PRELUDE TO A CHANGE OF MIND, the origin story of the HABDVARSHA universe, has gone in and out of print with three different publishers. Despite significant revision to the successive releases, author Robert Stikmanz remained dissatisfied with the still evolving text."Reworked from start to finish" best describes this new version from Stikmantica. For PRELUDE TO A CHANGE OF MIND, THE AUTHOR'S EDITION, A NOVEL OF HABDVARSHA, Stikmanz stripped the narrative to its familiar outline and rebuilt it, adding dimension to characters and setting, and tightening prose. The tale of Meg Christmas and her intersection with alternate worlds, mysterious forces and magical beings now takes definitive shape in a lively, engaging, completely fresh account.PRELUDE TO A CHANGE OF MIND, THE AUTHOR'S EDITION relaunches the entire cycle of fiction by Robert Stikmanz. The retitled series steps forward with this first book of HABDVARSHA.

Nod's Way is the cultural cornerstone of Habdvarsha, the fictional world of Robert Stikmanz. For this Author's Edition, Stikmanz took the book to its foundation and built anew. The complete oracle appears in a clear, bilingual presentation of Dvarsh, the language Stikmanz created, with English translation.
Revered in Habdvarsha as an expression of their values, Nod's Way is also the Dvarsh tool for divination. Traditionally consulted with special dice, its purpose is not to predict the future, but to clarify the present.
