Now That's What I Call Chaos Magick

Mixed feelings
Some parts of both volumes are really interesting, and I think for anyone really invested in CM, this book is worth picking up, but I didn't find it especially easy to read. I don't mean to say that either volumes were particularly verbose, more that a lot of the text seems self-indulgent, not necessarily presented in a way that's always clear to the reader what's going on. Probably this was intentional, but I found that it made for a difficult read.Despite the style of writing and a wide array of typos, the information within is of a high standard and some of the rituals described are interesting or humourous, so I'll still give it three stars.

The first half is a tedious, self-absorbed
The first half is a tedious, self-absorbed, chaotic romp through the author's life of chaos magick. This book does not begin to satisfy until the second half, that's when the author finally begins to give you some 'practical' magick advice. Unless you're a complete newb to sigil magick, meditation, self hypnosis, NLP and creative thiniking, this book will leave you disappointed. I gave my copy away to a bum on the street, and it seems the book hasn't changed his lot one bit. He must have lost interest slogging through the first half.

Applied Chaos!
This is a great book- anyone interested in the Chaos current needs to read Carroll, Sherwin, Dave Lee and the like, but this book gives a great insight into how magicians are actually doing the stuff at the beginning of the 21st century. This book is a game of two halves, with each author taking us through some fairly riotous magickal encounters and then unpacking the implications and theory so that others can begin to make sense of their own journeys.Great to see some AMOOKOS material rear its head in an ecstatic Ganesh Puja, and Greg Humphries does some great stuff with art therapy meets automatic drawing meets sigilisation.Fistycuffs with squatters, the destruction of clocks and the magical implications of fatherhood- this is magick at the sharp end!!

Hits the spot, found this book exillarating, it crosses over grounds and magical experiences that we are so familiar with.

To my taste:The back of the book sells it as an amazing book. I was quite disappointed.The first book contains a bunch or group rituals, which are interesting, especially because those guys made them up. They aren't very useful rituals as the conditions in which they were done are less than ideal, but interesting to read nonetheless. That gives my 2 out of five stars.The ritual that I enjoyed most was the cookie-baking ritual: baking cookies and then having them to invoke an entity as a group ritualIn the second book I saw NLP and mantak chia stuff. Great stuff if thats what you're into, but not what I'd expect to see in a magick book. Certainly not what I payed for.
