This book is about real magick, effecting real change, in a real world. There are some books on magick that teach it purely as spiritual advancement. There are others that teach it as a form of psychological self-help that affects only inner change. While magick can and should be both of these, it is something more. Real Sorcery is about success in practical magick; it is a book that aims at change in both the outer and inner worlds.
Beyond a mere spell book or training course, Real Sorcery is a field manual on successful sorcery written by a professional sorcerer. The first part of the book lays out the qualities, concepts, and exercises necessary to attempt practical magick. The second part presents clear strategies for tackling almost any type of issue with sorcery.
In this book you will learn how to:
- Attack problems from multiple angles, not just by casting a spell
- Blend mundane and magical action to ensure success
- Figure out whether what you are doing is working, and fix it if it isn’t
- Go beyond readings, into magical intelligence-gathering
- Influence the minds of other people
- Work most effectively on behalf of others
This book was previously published as The Sorcerer’s Secrets by New Page Books in 2009. This edition features a new introduction from the author, one new chapter, and updates throughout.

In Magic White and Black, Dr. Franz Hartmann gives a thorough
overview of the myriad aspects of life and reality involving
aspects of magic and spiritualism. Although the title emphasizes
magic, the scope of what is arguably the masterwork of Dr. Franz
Hartmann is much wider. This book discusses various mystical
phenomena, and how the human mind interacts - purposefully or
otherwise - with the magical realm beyond what is seen in ordinary
existence. Hartmann's work is multifaceted; he explains with
clarity the various manifestations of the supernatural or occult in
religion's great prophets, and also attempts to reconcile
scientific explanations. As a practicing physician who held great
interest in the occult arts, Hartmann appreciated the power of
science to heal. He was also a follower of the Rosicrucian
movement, which proposed a spiritual awakening and reformation of
all mankind, so that humans may properly align with spiritual
forces and unite to actively seek this knowledge.
The second book in Cornelia Funke's internationally celebrated
trilogy - magical, thrilling and mesmerising. 'I don't think I've
ever read anything that conveys so well the joys, terrors and
pitfalls of reading' Diana Wynne Jones Although a year has passed,
not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of the extraordinary
events of Inkheart, and the story whose characters strode out of
the pages, and changed her life for ever. But for Dustfinger, the
fire-eater, torn from his world of words, the need to return has
become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller with the
magical ability to read him back, he sets in motion a dangerous
reversal that sees the characters of Inkheart transported to a
charmed Inkworld, about to be fought over by rival rebels and
princes ... A thrilling and magical series about stories and the
imagination they inspire Book 1, Inkheart, is now a major movie
starring Andy Serkis, Paul Bettany and Brendan Fraser! The
adventure continues in book 3, Inkdeath Cornelia Funke is the
critically-acclaimed, internationally bestselling author of Dragon
Rider and The Thief Lord
The Mysteries of the Qabalah completes the second book in a trilogy
written by the famous French esoteric scholar, Eliphas Levi. In the
first part of this work, Levi links the Old and New Testaments by
comparing the qabalistic imagery and concepts inherent in both "The
Prophecy of Ezekiel" and "The Apocalypse of St. John". He explains
how the description of Solomon's temple, the great sanctuary of the
true God, represents the Qabalistic or traditional theology of the
Hebrews -- even the measurements are symbolic and refer to sacred
numbers. In the second part of the treatise, Levi demonstrates that
"The Apocalypse of St. John" is a symbolic resume of knowledge for
initiates and a key to the high Qabalah. The theology of the
Hebrews can be attached to Christianity through the prophecy of
Ezekiel. It served as a model for "The Apocalypse of St. John",
which -- behind the emblems of the Qabalah -- hides the most
profound secrets of Christian theology. Students of the Western
Mystery tradition will find this material of special interest when
exploring the symbolism of the Bible and Qabalah.
