DuQuette offers a refreshing, grounded perspective on magick that strips away unnecessary mystification. While his storytelling is vibrant and his insights into the mind's power are compelling, this book may not suit readers seeking dense theoretical frameworks or rigid dogmatic instruction. It is less of a textbook and more of a personal testament to magical efficacy through psychological means.
