Author: Ford, Michael W.

For more than a decade left hand path and dark withcraft expert Michael W.Ford has laboured in the forbidden fields of the dark side of the occult, lit bythe pale moon of Luciferian ambition and Satanic drive.

Luciferian Witchcraft represents perhaps the major part of his publishedaccomplishments to date. The first editions of most of his works aredisappearing into private libraries of occult collector's items-and their pricesare increasing enormously. With this fact in mind, Luciferian Witchcraft gatherstogether in one huge compendium many of the shocking rituals and bizarreinitiation rites of black magick that have established Ford as the mostcutting-edge exponent of the left hand path tradition in America today. The bookbegins with a lengthy and highly scholarly exposition of the place of theDraconic adversary within historical magick.

Set Typhon, the Egyptian God of Darkness, Ahriman, the Persian Devil and hisWhore of Darkness, the Adversary and the Bride of the Devil, Cain the Son, theGnostic Yaldabaoth, "Child of Chaos", the Path of the Crooked Serpent- Leviathanand Beelzebub and Tiamat, Pazuzu, and Moloch are only some of the topics andfigures covered. The second part of the book,The Grimoires of LuciferianWitchcraft, includes several of his most infamous graveyard workings, togetherwith the complete version of the Luciferian Goetia- a completely revised andupdated version of the Goetia grimoire from the Lesser Key of Solomon the King.

Part three covers Yatukan and Ahrimanic Persian sorcery. As I have mentionedbefore, it is the willingness and creativity of Ford to look beyond worn-outChristian- and Hebrew-based demonology in search of black magick inspirationthat marks his work as unique. Here, forbidden heresies of millenia-oldZoroastrian thought reveal their diabolic secrets to the sorceror. Finally, thelast part of the tome has chapters on Sethanic and Angelic Magick, in which theprimal force of Set Typhon and the infamous Watchers of the book of Enoch areinvoked for cosmic diabolism, and several new and strange sex magick rites ofthe left hand path are revealed. This totally unique, enormous tome, is finallyavailable. Grab it now and seize the power for yourself!
