Sexuality, Magic, and Perversion

by Francis X. King

Sexuality, Magic, and Perversion surveys such outre subjects as sex magic, left-hand Tantrism, and the initiates of Aleister Crowley’s Order of Oriental Templars. This fascinating and highly readable book also discusses the role of magical fantasy in contemporary pornography. Appendices cover obscurities such as Ralph Chubb’s homoerotic mysticism and the women bishops of the Mariavite Church in Poland.

[Lysergius · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not as exciting as the title would lead one to believe.

I dont think this book is going to open new doors for anyone anytime soon... if you are already buying books on these subjects this is about as entry level as you can get. Still, even a bad book about sex magic is kinda good... right?
