About the author
Steve Savedow is a translator and writer working in ceremonial magic and grimoire traditions. His Sepher Rezial Hemelach: The Book of the Angel Rezial (Weiser Books, 2000) is the first English translation of this Hebrew magical text, based on a rare 1701 Amsterdam edition and tied in legend to Adam's instruction in the Garden of Eden. Magician's Workbook: A Modern Grimoire (Weiser Books) is written as a practical manual for beginners in ritual magic and astral projection, gathering core themes from classic occult literature into a structured self-initiation program. Faustiana Goetica (Hadean Press) brings together obscure sixteenth- to eighteenth-century German grimoire texts in English translation for the first time. His work spans both scholarly translation of historical magical texts and instructional material for practicing magicians.
