Product Description
From Amazon
This definitive edition of Frater Achad's Liber Thirty-one relies heavily on Achad's original manuscript and is annotated with T. Allen Greenfield's explanations of Achad's more obscure references. As a primary source, Liber Thirty-one offers a glimpse into the psyche of the man best known as Aleister Crowley's "magical child." Students of Thelema (the system of magic developed by Crowley) will find Achad's work profoundly eye opening, as he reveals the key to Crowley's cryptic Liber Al vel Legis. The reflective nature of Achad's key is remarkably similar to Zen teachings, but its application to Qabalistic magic is nothing short of art. --Brian Patterson

Can't Greenfield get it RIGHT?,
By Rusty Shackleford (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Liber Thirty-One (Paperback)
Once again Allen Greenfield, alleged "occult scholar" bores his readers to tears with what he attempts to pass off as "original scholarship." Instead, he merely adds foot-notes to the text of Achad's work which do little more than annoy the serious occult student.

Achad's Masterpiece,
By A Customer
This review is from: Liber Thirty-One (Paperback)
A lot has been said about Frater Achad and his relationship with Crowley. But most people miss the fact that Achad's Liber 31 was why Crowley renamed Liber L to Liber AL! As far as I can tell, this is the first annotated Achad book on the market. It has a great introduction and some of the footnotes are very useful-yet some make one ask what was the point? Overall it is a very important book in the Thelemic cannon and one any serious magician or Thelemite should have.

Bad Work At It's Best,
By "ouchnipple" (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Liber Thirty-One (Paperback)
Can Greenfield ever get his "scholarship" right? When will he stop simply adding worthless footnotes and trivial minutia to the occult research pool and get down to some serious work? If you can find a free copy on-line, down-load and skip this piece of garbage-- nothing new here.
