ONE: The Grimoire of the Golden Toad

by Andrew D. Chumbley

This unique grimoire was published in the year 2000, marking the cusp of the old and the new chiliad. It is the first full grimoire-text to treat specifically and from personal account of the Traditional East Anglian ritual called 'The Waters of the Moon': the solitary initiation of the so-called 'Toad-witch'. The textualisation of this magical process was, in this unique instance, undertaken as an extension of the ritual itself - a perfection of its cycle of arcana to a point of individual crystallisation. Due to the highly specialised nature of the text's ritual practice, only 77 outer copies of this book were issued.

Reviews

[Samhain · Rating 5 out of 5]

A very good book, disclosing the secrete toad-man rite, through which the sorcerer becomes the One Against All. Very powerful ritual outlined in this, which can potentially lead to death and insanity, but also to illumination and power.

The best book of Chumbley, in all its simplicity.
