Luciferian Witchcraft: The Grimoire of the Serpent Paperback – March 9, 2005

I like Michael ford books because you get a lot of information for the money you spend. the only dislike I have is that he leaves out information to those who are new to magic.as that no matter how many rituals that you do that unless you sell your souls to god or satan or to another demon .your magic wont work.and that's its not you doing the work in the spell its the demons you use. the only thing you give is the desire .and last and the most important part is that if god does not approve it.its not going to happen and satan and any demon you work with will tell you that.as normal I work most of the rituals in the book one didn't work for me don't mean it does not work it just didn't for me.and the only others one I did not do was one spiting on gods face and ones of sex magick others that's didn't make since to me. and I didn't take the luciferian oath in the book to bring people to demons.i feel like it your choice and that anyone that practice magic should take something from others and make there own and never follow anyone .even though I am a 26 illuminati I follow most of man law but I made my deals with god and the angels and demons not man because I don't go along with most of what man says that means I will be follower and man will let you down everytime.but in the end we are all children of god and even through we don't see the world the same we still suppose to love everyone even the sprits we deal with to help us because they are children of god also .i didn't come up with that.the archangels taught me that and because of that it made me look at things different and all that I know come from god, angels, archangels,demons,archdemons,fairies,dragons,vampires,djinn,dragons, voodoo spirits .and to my big brother satan .who taught me mostly everything.i compare to other Michael fords books and once again thank you for taking time to read my review.and hope that it helps

I bought this Hardcover copy very recently online here and although it is riddled with spelling and grammatical errors, to the extent that i would be inclined even to see this as some deliberate artifice of the author for some undisclosed reason, it is a hefty and dangerous tome. It is the only book in my collection that i am driven to keep separate from the other grimoires and keep out of reach from any accidental perusals by the unwitting. As soon as i started to look through the book a sense of deep uncertainty overcomes and something wants to come out. At other times it drains me and i can't let go of it - as if i was hanging onto an electric fence. Neither the works of Archaelus Baron or the supposed Necronomicon of Simon evoke such an unease like this intense book. I recommend this book to adepts in the arts only, something which i do not consider myself to be yet and so naturally i pay the price for delving into such things like it is some lonely planets guide. This book will punish those who do not approach it or appreciate it properly. Its presence whenever opened seems to precede so inexplicable chaos - electrical disturbances, strange smells, sickness. Perhaps this is just me but i really have not had any such consistent strangeness with a book before like this one.I would give it 5 stars were it not for unending errors in the print that beg for the employment of a competent printer (if that is however what Mr Ford wants)

I purchased this book because I like Michael Ford's writing style and I loved the Illustrations I had seen in his other books. When you have a large library of occult books, you see a lot of the same thing, same basic steps, same spells etc.. But this book really stands out as a unique and inspiring work of occultism. It has more than enough to keep you reading and working, and is highly original in content. I was especially pleased to see the added notes for the Goetia inside, rather than the same things I have read about it reprinted again and again. The book has the feel of a "volume of forbidden lore" and has the most interesting descriptions of both Ahriman and Persian Sorcery I have ever read. The Illustrations are excellent and create the right atmosphere for a book on Black Magick.

It took me a while to talk myself into buying this book but once I did I could hardly wait to read it. Like another reviewer I wonder how many of the grammer and spelling errors are real and how many are on purpose for some reason.I found the book facinating but I also read and store it with caution as I do not want a "newbie" or "fluffy bunny" to pick it up and not know what they have. I've gotten some good work out of it but it takes some experience and pratice to use it. Not for the beginner.

Ordered this for my brother

Came sooner than expected and in amazing quality. This book is informative and is a necessity to your path if you’re on this path

Very good read as well as results. I also have Liber HVHI and Bible of the Adversary, which are both great books. Hail to Michael for writing these and sharing them with the world. Some other reviews I've read other reviews about misspellings, but from what I've seen in Michaels books, if you know how to read then you'll understand them just fine.

I will recommend gladly this book as well as any of micheal w. fords , books...I'am pleased with this great work,as it deals with luciferian witchcraft,my most life change,being on this path I have chosen,and never to look back...It's a great book for those new,as well for those who know this path always can use some extra ideas & rituals...It rates a 5 star from me..Ba nam I Aharman...Aharman I hvadae...

Looking forward to reading.

Thanks for posting me the Azal'ucel Edition of Luciferian Witchcraft. Michael W. Ford is a great writer!
