About this listen
When Sir Peter Pendragon, a retired pilot of the Great War, meets the free-spirited Louise, a devotee of the mysterious occultist Basil King Lamus, the two immediately get married and set off across Europe, on a drug-fueled honeymoon of heroin and cocaine. Eventually, in an attempt to break free of their recently acquired habit, the newlyweds find their way to the Abbey of Thelema in Italy, where the adults perform invocations to the sun and the children freely recite passages from the Book of the Law. At the guiding hand of King Lamus, the sisters of the Abbey maintain magical diaries, practice strange rituals, and pursue their true will. But what will become of Peter and Lou?

Insightful occult classic
Given the importance to occult history, a novel by A. Crowley would naturally inspire curiosity. But, does it capture the reader and enable an insight into a historical world?
Most certainly.
I was somewhat reserved in approaching this book as Crowley’s history almost predetermined my expectations.
The listener will discover a true classic that pulls back the curtain of an eon past.
Well worthwhile.
The voice artist that recorded this and the team of editors have done an amazing reading!

An exciting tortturess fable of spiritual heroism
what a writer? an amazing tale worthy of the hero's quest for spiritual enlightenment. Some minor old fashion ideas of gender roles do not detract, in my view, from the essential point of the story it enhances it!

Brilliantly red but too long
Although the Russian very witty parked in the story, the overall idea is simply wrong Haddad, and he was a lot of indulgence. However, is one of the best ratings I have heard.
