Hadean Press has opened pre-orders for the hardcover edition of The Wandering School of Secrets by Simon Dyda. The posted description says:
The Wandering School of Secrets: A Prospectus by Simon Dyda is a manual and syllabus of sorcery for developing proficiency in magic for daily life aimed at the itinerant magician. Without eschewing discipline, the author emphasises learning magic through immersion: by doing magic. This is magical growth stripped down to the essentials – a journey through the heteropraxy of sorcery as a subversive and secretive lifestyle that benefits the practitioner and those they choose to help.
Drawing on a wide range of sources from ancient Greek myth and magic, Welsh folklore, the grimoire tradition, Shinto, and many others, the core principles and essential practices are covered in a lucid and effective manner. Dealing with spirits, the ancestors, nature spirits, using planetary magic, herb lore, magical language and music, astrology and effective timing are all explored as core components of developing your personal practice of sorcery. This book is an inspirational work which lays the groundwork in front of the reader in an incredibly accessible form – setting their feet on the road less travelled and giving pointers to all the necessary tools.
