5.0 out of 5 stars Be weary of Christians with agendas, February 11, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Egyptian Secrets: or White and Black Art for Man and Beast (Paperback)
I am personally not into Albertus Magnus or "Egyptian Secrets". I should, however, point out that the purpose of this book is not so much to prove or disprove whether or not Albertus was a saint or sorcorer, but is simply a translations of an early 1800's grimiore, nothing more, or nothing less. Therefore, the qaulity of this book should not be judged on the authenticity of the sorcerers ideas surrounding the origins of their magical teachings in the 1800's, but as a representation of the type of magic practiced by sorcerors in early America, regaurdless what these wizards thought this magic came from. I should also point out that the magic presented in this book is basically goetic/hermetic magic, and that there was in fact both coptic(egyptian) and greek translations found in both the Kemetic and the Mediterrainian lands. More details on this subject can be found in Seven Faces of Darkness by Don Webb and Hermetic Magic by Stephen Flowers, both of which I found interesting from a scholarly point of veiw. Therefore, I suggest that one should be weary of the ratings of the Xtian below.

This review is from: Egyptian Secrets: or White and Black Art for Man and Beast (Paperback)
Bought this book figuring it would talk about the ancient gods of Egypt, magics and spells from those times etc.
What you actually get on the other hand is a hodge podge of reciepes for getting rid of diarrhea and such. All of it calling on the power of Christ, the son and holy spirit.. yada yada yada...

Nothing Egypt about this book. No great secrets. Just a boring let down.
