This first edition of the Phantom Ant Reader contains incomplete chapters from World War Weed: Plant Life and Framed & Hunted: A True Story of Occult Persecution. It is presented as a promotional vehicle for the two books and the publishing company from which they came.

World War Weed contains five years field research from Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, this was completed while the author was freelancing for the legendary Soft Secrets magazine. Its focused on the social, political and economic issues faced by people around the world resulting from domestic drug laws, specifically cannabis.

Framed & Hunted is a fourteen year memoir by the same author. It spans fourteen years and five continents, including the World War Weed years, with the main theme being occult targeting and gang stalking. Enthusiastically received by professional reviewers, Framed & Hunted deals with several highly controversial subjects and has already achieved hundreds of Five Star ratings on the goodreads website.

I felt uneasy yet exhilarated for a lot of this book, as I was constantly exposed to dangerous, uncomfortable, psychologically and physically threatening situations that this author went through. It really put me into the perspective of people from all walks of life, different races, genders, cultures, and more. I learned more about the way crime organisations can switch from subtle intimidation to extreme threats and psychological manipulation. The consistent change of setting, from Australia to the Amazon Rainforest and much more, kept me on the edge of my seat and in trepidation of what could come next for our main character. I have the utmost respect for the author and what he's experienced, and his raw recount of these events took me on an emotional rollercoaster. This is a powerful and beautifully written book that I think everyone should read at some point in their lives.
