Pros

The hardcover with metallic copper design is lovely! It really is a perfect coffee table book! I found this book super awesome and i definitely recommend! The book is great! It reminds me of days when i would spend hours looking at national geographic...  Read More

The way it is written seems to read more like a textbook to me and it makes sense, it is basically a textbook on the occult. The book also has a four-page glossary and an extensive index to help you find just the piece of information that you want to ...  Read More

Paper-stock is thick and semi-glossy. Beautiful illustrations. Amazingly illustrated, as all good d.



Cons
