Having once had a Top Secret clearance (this was many years ago, however), I just decoded part of the sentence from DrRocco's post, and the first three letters are these: 'S', 'H', 'I'. Unfortunately, I am unable to decipher the remaining letter. |

Truly, we are in the midst of a literary paradigm shift of the utmost importance, and these newly-discovered works of genius should be disseminated to every genre-ridden reader ensconced in his or her own mummy-wrapped shell of comfortable denial!

It's kind of amazing how many of these there are. If you click on any of the "author's" names, you'll get a whole new batch, each with a random stock photo of a person on the cover:

"He removed his throat softly, showing a major face" - from the aptly named Self-Destruction 1895 - Not so much a Scooby Doo ending as a Cthulhu ending?
