Thanks. I hope to make a series of Doors, when I get the time. Ever read the Dark Tower?

No I haven't read it, I have been bookwise working on Kenneth Grant books, and haven't really delved upon many other authors currently. But Dark Tower sounds interesting enough, and will have to check it out.

The Dark Tower is a series of SEVEN (count 'em) books by Stephen King (junk food writer - hehehe) that took him thirty years to write. It's his Lord of the Rings, I guess - a lot of his own personal mysticism mixed in it. Very entertaining, especially if you have a cabalistic reference handy, and are familiar with his other stories - especially The Stand. Heard of Kenneth Grant, but never got to read him outside of quotations. Will look him up.

Grant, an amazing occultic author, and his works are very handy...

Just looked him up on Wikipedia. Sounds interesting, but no works online. Darn! Off to the bookstore I guess.

Good luck finding them at your local Barnes and Noble, Maybe it is different in your area, but we can only find him online here, and his works are very pricy. I can recomend Nightside Of Eden, it gives a very in depth look upon the Tunnels Of Set, and the Qliphothic tree.

I have heard of this book! Fortunately, there are several metaphysical stores in my area. One has almost everything. Its called Isis. I have been trying to find a good book on the Qlippoth!

I can speak for these books since I own them, Nightside is very good as well as the Goetia, or lesser and greater Keys of Solomon. Depending on which Qliphothic tree you use. The Goetia will help with more of the darker aspects of the Qliphoth, or it least it does for me. Another book, by Grant, Gamaliel, The Diary of a Vampyre is another good one. But lest is hard to find and expensive, but a good resource, you may also check into Left Hand Path Orders, they have resources available, but most only to members of the Order, if you are serious enough to learn. But a very good source for your own enlightenment, you still though like society have to deal with those which wish to disenchant it, but you look to them as grains of sand in a pool of vast worldly knowledge after a while...

These books are very pricey, as you said, and not available locally. I find this intriguing. Rare knowledge is worth the effort. I read some snippets of Grant's work, here and there, on the Web - I like the style of writing, and the ideas presented by the little glimpses I came across. Very SANE (heehee). This is good.
I say nevermind the Critics and Disenchanters. Moral arguments are fetters in matters of exploration. Infinity is a big place, and every idea is useful if you know how to use it. That's how I see it. Too bad the books cost so much for me, at this time. But, I have faith that they will come my way when the time is right, as they often do.
So thank you.
