Post-Modern MagickPost-Modern Magick by Seth
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $6.00
Don't let the size of these books by SETH fool you. There is no fluff or filler in his books. They are all full of fantastic ideas for magickal workings. This book is very intriguing in that he uses the bases of computers... programming... viruses... firewalls, and the like, as they apply to people and magick. Cyber magick I guess. (Very small print.)
Blood MagickBlood Magick by Seth
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $6.00
One of the few books I've found on this topic. Again, full of ideas-but ideas that you personally build upon. As with all of his books-I highly recommend it... and a pair of reading glasses. (Very small print.)
Tactical MagickTactical Magick by Seth
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $9.61
Probably my favorite from his series. There is more emphasis in this book on finding power sources for your workings (Ley line choke points, etc.) He also teaches how to build a witch engine & other occult machines. As with all of his books-I highly recommend it... and a pair of reading glasses. (Very small print.)
The Lesser Key of SolomonThe Lesser Key of Solomon
Buy new: $39.00 / Used from: $31.78
Having a decade+ obsession with the Goetia, I've had the opportunity to read most published versions of the Lesser Key/Lemegeton/Goetia. This is the book to get. The most well written + it actually includes the resources to compare the different manuscripts.
Now That's What I Call Chaos MagickNow That's What I Call Chaos Magick by Julian Vayne
Buy new: $21.60 / Used from: $18.19
Awesome book... If you can get past the silliness of the invoking Buffy part LOL! More great ideas.
The Book of ResultsThe Book of Results by Ray Sherwin
Buy new: $10.00 / Used from: $9.24
A good primer in sigil magick.
Liber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos MagicLiber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos Magic by Peter J. Carroll
Buy new: $11.53 / Used from: $7.25
Instant Magick: Ancient Wisdom, Modern SpellcraftInstant Magick: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Spellcraft by Christopher Penczak
Buy new: $10.36 / Used from: $2.39
I'm not a fan of Penczak, but this book has a lot of good ideas to experiment with. The psychic phone call is a cool one to experiment with.
Grimorium VerumGrimorium Verum by Joseph H. Peterson
Buy new: $19.00
Long overdue translation of one of the most infamous grimoires in existence. Grimorium Verum follows the same quality as his previously mentioned translation of the Goetia.
Galdrabok: An Icelandic GrimoireGaldrabok: An Icelandic Grimoire by Stephen E. Flowers
Buy used from: $19.95
The first book on Norse magick I got my hands on... and one of the rarest. It is an interesting read. Sadly, you can see the x-tian influence quite a lot throughout the book.
