Product Description
Product Description
In this world of mystery and the unknown, the lives and energies of multiple occult groups and individuals inevitably intertwine. The various goals, beliefs, and agendas of these groups and individuals at times come into such tremendous conflict that a war begins. It is in this world of shadows and secrecy that the occult history of the world has unfolded for untold generations.
The Occult Art of War is a derivative work based upon the teachings of Sun Tzu in his ancient strategy manual,The Art of War. This text applies Sun Tzu's teachings to the conflicts that arise in the paths of those living in conjunction with the supernatural.
This book not only lays out specific methods of strategy, but also provides a code of ethics and mental attitude for responsible application of the strategies.
At its core this book is a manual for spiritual conflict and occult warfare.

Nothing Practical - Just Tactics, May 17 2006
By Michael Herschman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Occult Art of War (Paperback)
I can see how this book could be helpful to somebody who is already very good at magick. They would be able to interpret what to do. This book just talks about tactics, which are helpful (if you have a weapon). I wouldn't recommend it to the beginner, but if you already know how to use it it may come of some use.

Magical warfare not for beginners., Jan 1 2007
By a reader - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Occult Art of War (Paperback)
What I found most interesting about this book, and perhaps the most difficult, was the assumption on the part of the author that the reader is capable of extremely advanced magical workings. The majority of the boook, and not suprisingly so given the Sun Tzu roots, focuses on what can best be described as battle magick. There is much mention of the use of offensive magick (hexes, curses, energy attacks) and defensive magick (sheilding, binding, protective enchantments). While I am pleased to have found such a directly informative, and completely unapologetic, book about the philosophy and application of such magick, I will say that the book is not a good tool for beginners. The novice will find it confusing and seemingly only a small departure from the source text, while in truth it is quite a step beyond just the world of physical weapons.
