Disinformation’s collection of essays entitled “The Book of Lies” is also a great one for its diversity of authors and ideas; good for beginners too. “Hands on Chaos Magick” by Andrieh Vitimus. This one has a gang of exercises/spells/thought experiments and a super pragmatic approach. For a more ceremonial GD flair I recommend Israel Regardie’s “Middle Pillar”. Definitely not Chaos Magick but it has some great tips and knowledge. On the comic tip I would also recommend “Planetary” by Warren Ellis. While not overtly based on Magick you’ll find there’s a undercurrent present, as well as being once if Ellis’s best works. Last but definitely not least I highly recommend “Promethea” by Alan Moore, which I am currently reading and is among the most magical comics I’ve had the pleasure of reading. Thanks for posting this T.K.! Love your stuff and will be liking into the titles I’m not familiar with. ✨
I’ve listened to the complete audiobook about the KLF now. Was on my list for a while. Thanks for pushing me to finally get to it. Really liked it. Would definitely recommend and for those that dare read or listen to The Dice Man too while you are at it. 👹
One of the oddest books I know, which I think you might enjoy is the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili by Francesco Colonna, trans Joscelyn Godwin. This is from the Goodreads blurb. It's not a book of magic but a magical book. "One of the most famous books in the world, the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, read by every Renaissance intellectual and referred to in studies of art and culture ever since... It is a strange, pagan, pedantic, erotic, allegorical, mythological romance relating in highly stylized Italian the quest of Poliphilo for his beloved Polia. The author (presumed to be Francesco Colonna, a friar of dubious reputation) was obsessed by architecture, landscape, and costume-it is not going too far to say sexually obsessed-and its 174 woodcuts are a primary source for Renaissance ideas on both buildings and gardens. In 1592 an attempt was made to produce an English version but the translator gave up. The task has been triumphantly accomplished by Joscelyn Godwin, who succeeds in reproducing all its wayward charm and arcane learning in language accessible to the modern reader."
Just ordered the KLF book. "Justified and Ancient" (the Tammy Wynette version) has been the anthem that's been getting me through these crazy times, took your recommendation as a sign... and I recommend to you The Inner Guide Meditation by Edwin Steinbrecher.

I haven't read Plant Spirit Wisdom, but have the other two. I enjoyed them.

Have you read any of the Gallery of Magick books?
I read a few of them alright, the Servitor one is pretty good. The rest are decent, but just not my thing.
Promethea?
Have read it, it's a masterpiece.
Mark Stavish's book on Egregores is a great read.
So I have heard, I must check it out.
