- The Modern Gnosis: by C. S. Thompson. One of the strengths of Mythorealism as a spiritual and aesthetic viewpoint is its lack of dogma.

This book, which is divided into four sections, examines the philosophical, aesthetic, ethical and metaphysical principles of Mythorealism.
Poetry
- The Work Will Witness: Sonnets: by C.S. Thompson. A sonnet sequence in honor of the author's wife and inspiration, Cicely Noel Thompson. Perhaps nothing could be less in the spirit of our time than such a work, but this is all the more reason for it to exist.
- The Wind Between the Worlds: Collected Poems of C.S. Thompson: by C.S. Thompson. The poetry of C. S. Thompson evokes Film Noir and dark mysticism, a place of burned-out cities, collapsing civilizations and man-eating dreams. These poems paint the landscape of a world in decline, spinning out of the orbit of reason and into a nightmare.
