Well woven tale

This is a fascinating introduction to the Luciferian current told in a fictional setting. Mr. Williamson deftly weaves this tale of a young man trying to understand his place in the world only to discover that he is more in control of his destiny than he realized. If you are sensitive about Christianity being ridiculed regarding the way it has manipulated the masses, then this book will get under your skin. As a theistic Pagan, I don't agree with his assertion that there are "no gods but man," but I certainly agree that "life is what you make it." A very quick and engaging read from a talented author.

Journey of the soul

When I read this book I wasn't that interested in High Magick, nor am I that interested in pursuing High Magick at this point in my life either. I'm sure that people who are Magick practitioners will find the occult passages true to life and fascinating, but that wasn't what interested me in this book.What fascinated me was the progression of the main character from self-righteous creep to passable human being. I spent the first half of the book hating this guy, wondering if the author had made the protagonist nasty on purpose. The second half of the book saved it, as the main character realized that the things he was supposed to be learning had less to do with power or control and more to do with self-awareness.Ironically, although this is an semi-autobiographical novel, I met the author shortly after reading it and he's one of the nicest guys you're ever going to meet. He runs Magus Books next to the University of Minnesota, which is where I learned most of what I learned at the U.Besides that, this book reminds me a great deal of Umberto Eco's Foucalt's Pendulum, except where that book takes a good month to read, this one can be read in a couple of days. So buy this book if you are at all interested in religion, Magick, the inner-life of occultists, or mysticism in general. Then if you like, stop by Magus Books at the U and meet the author. You'll find that he's nowhere near as creepy as the main character.
