A Castalia Library subscriber sends a picture of the heir to the Franklin throne. I’m rather digging that Easton Press Lovecraft edition, by the way.

THE TRIAL OF ROGER STONE by Milo Yiannopoulos.

“Read this book. It’s a warning of what can happen when politics infects our justice system.”
— TUCKER CARLSON

“There’s no better guide through the mistrial of Roger Stone than courtroom jester Milo Yiannopoulos. For once, the only thing he leaves naked is the truth.”
— JACK POSOBIEC

“More than just the trial of Roger Stone, it’s the trial of America’s basic liberties. An incredible tour de force.”
— ALEX JONES

“The Trial of Roger Stone should be an alarm bell for conservatives. What happened to Mr. Stone happens every day to ordinary Americans. We do not have a rule of law. We do not have fair judges. We have jack-booted thugs kicking down doors with the approval of prosecutors in robes.”
— MIKE CERNOVICH

“Roger Stone has never sounded so sympathetic and likable. Will he ever forgive Milo for the portrait?”
— VOX DAY

The Mueller Report was a catastrophe for the malevolent forces desperate to impeach President Donald Trump. It failed to prove any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Since then, many of the President’s former advisors and associates have been subjected to vindictive, political prosecutions for a variety of trivial, unrelated offenses. Roger Stone is one of them.

In this moving, eyewitness account of Stone’s trial and his decades-long career of political chicanery, author and Stone intimate Milo Yiannopoulos introduces America to the man behind the myth–and explains how the biggest stitch-up in modern judicial history unfolded. He offers a plea to President Trump to step in and do the right thing, and finally, he explains how we can prevent such grotesque injustices from happening ever again.

This book is really good; it is more than a good book, it is an important book that will serve future historians well in understanding the state of the present-day USA. As Milo himself told me, it is one thing to conceptually understand the corruption of the U.S. legal system, it is another to observe that corruption in action, day after day, live and in person. Despite being reasonably well-informed and a confirmed skeptic of the U.S. justice system, until reading this book I had no idea that the trial of Roger Stone was such a charade, to such an extent that the shamelessness of the clowns responsible would have embarrassed the average Communist judge conducting Soviet show trials during the Stalinist era.

EXCERPT: As a former senior editor for Breitbart, a New York Times-bestselling author and an international political celebrity and free speech icon, I’ve heard my share of so-called conspiracy theories. I’ve heard conservatives talk endlessly about double standards and unfair treatment. I’ve listened as Republicans have complained about how they’re regarded versus their Democrat peers. Most of the time, the conservatives are right. Almost all of the things they claim are true! Wait long enough and the things you hear on conservative talk radio generally prove to be pretty much spot-on. These revelations have come thick and fast in the past half-decade, because the Trump presidency has exposed collusion, cronyism and entrenched bureaucracies in the federal government at a scale that has stunned most Americans.

But never in my life have I sat in a courtroom and watched a put-up job unfold before my very eyes, and experienced a chill creeping down my spine as I slowly come to realize the terrifying power of a team of government lawyers determined to take someone down, whether they committed a crime or not, and how the full might of the American jurisprudential system kneels to accommodate them.

In November 2019, Roger Stone was found guilty of one count of obstruction—that is, of lying to Congress during an investigation—five counts of making a false statement to the government, and one count of tampering with a witness. Of all these charges, the last is the most preposterous. But none of them should ever have been brought against him.

THE TRIAL OF ROGER STONE is available in Kindle format on Amazon, in paperback at Castalia Direct, and in EPUB and Kindle format at Arkhaven.

Joshua Young, one of the Superversive stalwarts, announces the closing of Superversive Press:

It is with great sadness that I bring you the announcement that the owner of Superversive Press has made the decision to shutter the press. His reasons are his own and personal, and I understand that running even a small company is a large amount of work.

It’s much harder to run a small independent press than most people, even most writers, understand. And doing so since the advent of Kindle Unlimited, which reduced the ebook market by about 80 percent, has made it next to impossible.

That doesn’t apply to Castalia House, however. We intentionally set it up as a zero-risk structure that will keep running, more or less automatically, regardless of what just about anyone, including us, does in the future. And, of course, we have been aggressively exploring other markets, which has tended to strengthen our core business. But our biggest strength is our modestly-sized, but fiercely loyal base of our regular readers.

So don’t worry about Castalia. I can’t say for certain that things have never been better, as we did have a really good moment there in 2017 before the bottom dropped out of the ebook market, but things have definitely never looked more promising.

The ebook version of CITY BEYOND TIME by John C. Wright is now available for Resistance Warriors and the audiobook+, narrated by Jeremy Daw, is now available for Resistance Leaders on the Replatforming.

Since we were a week late getting this out, we’ve added a week to the coupon expiration date. Please be sure to download your digital files before February 7th, as we will NOT send anyone the files after the time expires.

The paperbacks will be sent out starting the first week of February. It is still possible to sign up for any level, or upgrade to Hero of the Resistance, if you would like to obtain one of the editions.

There are only three days left to help Zammy, the giant sheepadoodle, to cross the finish line. He’s at 80 percent right now.

MEET ZAMMY’S NEW FRIENDS

This book, MEET ZAMMY’S NEW FRIENDS, has already been written and illustrated. This 3-week campaign commencing on Thanksgiving Day is to secure the $5,000 in support needed to fund the print production for a paperback, hard cover and an eBook for the 2019 holidays. This campaign is for backers passionate about Zammy, the joy he spreads and the positive daily impact he makes worldwide.

Castalia House has agreed to publish the family-friendly children’s books written and illustrated about the adventures of Zammy the Giant Sheepadoodle. And you can get an ebook, a paperback, or a hardcover by supporting Zammy’s Indiegogo campaign.

Zammy is already one-third of half two-thirds of the way there. Let’s push him over the line!

What started out as a tactical move in response to a deplatforming has unexpectedly transformed into something akin to the much-requested Castalia House subscription. The November book was Corporate Cancer, the December book is Quantum Mortis: A Man Disrupted.

Supporting Castalia on Patreon is one of the very best book deals around, as $1 gets you the ebook, $3 gets you the ebook and the audiobook, and $20 gets you the ebook, the audiobook, and the paperback. We’re committed to ensuring that at least one of the three editions every month will be a brand new one; in this case, although the ebook has been out for years and Marcher Lord published a hardcover, both the audiobook and the paperback are new.

We’re announcing this now because the paperback will be available Monday, but if you’re interested in a) supporting the replatforming and/or b) the monthly book subscription, it is available this way so you will not need to buy it separately. Keep in mind that while the ebooks and audiobooks will be downloadable starting around the middle of the month, the paperbacks will be shipped the first week of the following month.

The much-anticipated monthly subscription to join the Castalia Deluxe Book Club and receive a deluxe leather-bound book published by Castalia House every other month is now available.

• Genuine leather bindings
• Gilded cover and spine titling
• Gilded page edges
• Archival-quality paper
• First-rate fiction
• Timeless classics of history, science, and philosophy

The first Deluxe Book Club book is the Deluxe edition of The Missionaries by Owen Stanley. And for the seriously hard-core book collector who has all the Franklin Signed First Editions, it’s also possible to sign up for the limited-edition Library subscription.

Just to be clear, Castalia Deluxe is the main product and the Deluxe editions are the focus of this project. The Library editions are an ancillary experiment we’re doing at the request of some very serious book collectors, and which the Deluxe editions make possible. In quality terms, we are targeting the late ’80s Franklin Library editions for our Deluxe editions, albeit with better cover designs.
