Simon is a student of magic, occultism, and religion since the mid-1960s and the editor of the Necronomicon, Simon was a frequent lecturer for the famed Warlock Shop in Brooklyn and the Magickal Childe Bookstore in Manhattan for more than ten years before his sudden disappearance in 1984, speaking on topics as diverse as religion and politics, occultism and fascism, ceremonial magic, demonolatry, the Tarot, the Qabala, and Asian occult systems. He also conducted private classes for the New York City OTO during this period, with a focus on Enochian magic, "Owandering bishops," and Afro-Caribbean occult beliefs. An ordained priest of an Eastern Orthodox church, Simon has appeared on television and radio discussing such topics as exorcism, satanism, and Nazism. The media events he organized in the 1970s and 1980s -- with rock bands, ritual performances, and celebrity appearances -- helped to promote the "occult renaissance" in New York City. After decades of study in European, Asian, and Latin American cult centers, this book marks his first public appearance in more than twenty years.

3.0 out of 5 stars
has alot of potential,
By the magician "fire is aroused by air" (brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Necronomicon Spellbook (Mass Market Paperback)
now, it has been debating in-depth, quite for some time whether or not the necronomicon in general is a myth. That the belief system of this book generates it power only by new believers. Whether the necronomicon is authentic or not, this is not the case with me because it is a very powerful book. i know this by having a copy of it years ago.now concerning the spellbook; the book is explained quite simply. you will come to know what spirit to call and for what purposes, from what i've heard the results are immediate. i actually came across this book because of the sigils for i'm interested in all sorts of sigils. i have not tried any of the spells or incantations out of this book because there is not banishing ritual ( a license to depart the spirits after you've called them ) and that is a very bad thing. that is why i am giving this book a three star rating. to me, it seemed like simon was trying to get more consumers to buy his products with the continuation of the necronomicon legacy for the sole-purpose of making a fast buck. but if the spells due work (and from what i've heard, they do) it was very irresponsible of him to not decribe any banishing rituals in the book. any practitioner of the arts knows that banishing is a very serious rule of thumb when contacting any type of spirits. therefore i doubt his authentification (if any) of his knowledge in the occult. if you do buy this book and intend to use it, please learn how to properly banish spirits so you can develop a solid system of your own to banish these entities. you may get what you want but if you happen to so something wrong or just pissed of the the spirit by summoning it;it may linger around and eventuall destroy your life and that far outweighs any wish granted. so becareful!

THIS BOOK IS THE HOLY GRAIL ON PAPER!,
This review is from: Necronomicon Spellbook (Mass Market Paperback)
...This book is basically the easiest way to hold the universe in your hand! I tried almost every spell in it and without exaguartion, ALL WORKED! It's so simple and unlike other magical arts, it focuses on the imagination and true will. Basically, all you need is two candles and a stick of incense, no herbs, no nothing, and your prayers will be answered in ways you can't imagine. It's good for everything, money, love, danger or even black magic and curses (be sure not to toy around with it). All in all, for the price, it's the best deal you'll ever have.

AMAZING but it works,
This review is from: Necronomicon Spellbook (Mass Market Paperback)
I don't care how many reviews are on here saying it is a bad book and a hoax. This stuff works. I have been using with great success these rituals for a number of years. These are very powerful sumerian forces and used under the right magical context this stuff will blow your mind. If powerful magick is what you are seeking try it. What did Crowley say??? Question everything, record your own results. ANyone who says this book is junk has not tried it. THese are most powerful!!!!!
