Teo Kos is a writer from Rijeka, Croatia. He writes in native Croatian and English, and so far has had short stories and novellas published in both domestic and foreign publications.

Teo also dabbles in e-book design and formatting, something he very much enjoys doing.

His literary influences are authors who write very good books.

His aural inspiration is Heavy Metal and Ronnie James Dio.

His spiritual teacher is Robert Anton Wilson, who has said everything worth knowing about anything. All else is buzz and useless noise.

And finally, just like the Demon Cat, Teo has approximate knowledge of many things and he likes it that way.

A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr.
"Izvrsna meditacija o čovjekovoj prirodi, moralnosti i znanju. Majstorski ispričana, uz savršeno pogođene doze satiričnosti i humora. Miller kao da ne osuđuje destruktivnu ljudsku prirodu, već ima human pogled na djecu koja u vlastitom neznanju ciklič" Read more of this review »

"Vengeful Spirit", the 29th entry in the Horus Heresy saga, is a silly book. The premise it outrageous: Horus searches for an "ancient secret" on the planet Molech. The Emperor was there, a long time ago, and he did something very secret, then perfor ...more

I've enjoyed "Scars" more than I thought I would, as admittedly, I was not really a fan of Chris Wraight's writing in his previous outings. I didn't know what to expect because the White Scars are a scarcely mentioned legion, and haven't really been ...more

Robert E. Howard
“Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.”
Robert E. Howard

Robert E. Howard
“I have known many gods. He who denies them is as blind as he who trusts them too deeply. I seek not beyond death. It may be the blackness averred by the Nemedian skeptics, or Crom's realm of ice and cloud, or the snowy plains and vaulted halls of the Nordheimer's Valhalla. I know not, nor do I care. Let me live deep while I live; let me know the rich juices of red meat and stinging wine on my palate, the hot embrace of white arms, the mad exultation of battle when the blue blades flame and crimson, and I am content. Let teachers and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion. I know this: if life is illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and am content.”
Robert E. Howard and L. Sprague De Camp, Queen of the Black Coast

Robert Anton Wilson
“...when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases. ”
Robert Anton Wilson, Cosmic Trigger - Volume I: Final Secret of the Illuminati

Robert Anton Wilson
“I don't believe anything, but I have many suspicions.”
Robert Anton Wilson
