The trilogy of books by the Master Franz Bardon are unparalleled in the world of magick. What Crowley could not do, Master Bardon does. Instead of bragging about himself like Crowley, Master Bardon gets directly to the matter of making Hermetic science accessible to ALL. The first book explained the basic techniques and theory of magick. This second volume described the Solar Hierarchy of Intelligences and beings that are part of our universe. With the same care and delicacy, Master Bardon explains in theory then goes direct into practice. There are no blinds, tricks, or games like Crowley, but direct and to the point information. Master Bardon takes the student step by step just as in his first book, in order to have a successful evocation. The book is rich in information and theory even if you decide not to pursue the path of magick, the knowledge contained in this volume makes it priceless. For those students who want to actually practice Magick, get all of Bardon's books, you will not regret it.

I am a Hermetic and full heartedly recommend all of Franz Bardon's books. I would also suggest that you read and practice the magical exercises in Bardon's Initiation into Hermetics, before reading his book on magical evocation. Otherwise, you may not understand it or fully apprreciate the information he gives. TO JILL WITH LOVE: Memoirs of a Modern Day Mystic

Very good book , but one must buy the first and the third if he wants to get serious.

We've had our copy of this book...
dear ceremonial magicians,
... for over thirty-five years and remember the very first time we encountered it in a bookstore and felt at the time both a sense of wonder and of deja vu. It makes magic come alive and, in coordination with his other two books in this trilogy, is a great guide both for the aspiring magician and the advanced practitioner. We have, over the years, summoned a number of these spirits with great success. In fact, we are still experiencing the positive effects of some workings we evoked over 25 yrs ago. These spirits also guided us to create our own Book of Spirits, so the use of this book is like opening a door into whole new realms of magic evolving according to the individual needs and desires of the magician. In that sense, this book becomes unique for each individual. We highly recommend this text.

Without any doubt, Bardon is one of the best in occult.

thats what I thought for 2yrs but apparently the sigil and the spirits at the end of the book is from
abramelin and abramelin states them as spirits under Lucifer.

So im starting to have 2nd thought about this mans work.
