Crowley's Aegypt Cycle, of which this is Book 2, is at once beautiful and confounding. It is equally magical and filled with all the emotion that you forgot you had experienced. By the end of this novel, I was questioning how I perceived reality and how we unknowingly alter the shared consciousness that we call History. It is simply a masterpiece.
