There are some people who’s brains just fascinate me. Even trickier to get a good look at a brain, when
I don’t know them personally, and just know them by there writing. Lon Milo DuQuette is on of those people who I
would desperately like to know. This
book recounts amusing, frightening, enlightening, embarrassing anecdotes in a
way that it seems like he is telling the stories to you in person over coffee. There
are some fascinating cautionary tales, that still manage to make magick still
seem amusing anyway. He tells you the
story of his life and how he came to be a magician, and then relates some
stories of magickal events. He adds enough
details to these incidents that they are useful in seeing magick done by people
in the current world, with everyday tools like cardboard to draw sigils on and
clothesline rope to form the circle with.
I was also fascinated by the way that he can write about those events
that are true and crystal clear in magick when you are doing them, but when you
get done, seem crazy, even though you were there at the time. This book was such a good read I couldn’t
stop.
If you like it, also read by him “Low Magick: Its All in
Your Head…You Just Have No Idea How Big Your Head Is”
