My Life W/the Spirits By Lon Milo Duquette Options

"In this text, Lon Milo DuQuette takes readers into the sometimes terrifying, sometimes hilarious world of the modern ceremonial magician. Laced with self-effacing humour, his confessions, insights, and profundities contain a body of technical information on magick."

Has anyone here read this book and willing to comment on its accuracy in the world of the ceremonial magician? There is much mention in the reviews I have read of the book being so funny and hilarious--but is it too much so?--is it realistic?

Thanks in advance.

It is a nice book, although you may have encountered a lot of the stories elsewhere, e.g. the introduction to the Enochian Dictionary, the New Falcon edition of the Goetia etc. If you have not read them I would say it is worth reading.

If you ever get the chance, go see Lon talk somewhere. Last time he was here he was supposed to be giving a 1 hour lecture on something, but he said, "Well, I haven't got anywhere else to be, anyone else got things they need to do?" and then proceeded to just chat with folks for about 4 and a half hours about Goetia and the Enochian system. He talked about a lot of examples from his experiences that aren't in the books. It was great. One of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet too!
