Franz Bardon is regarded by many as the greatest Hermetic adept of the 20th century.

He left behind him four legendary books which have become acknowledged classics of occult literature. This present volume is the first complete new work from the hand of Franz Bardon to appear since his famous series of books on Hermetics.

Set in the form of questions and answers, this book is an invaluable addition to the Bardon material.
