Magick in Theory and Practice

By: Aleister Crowley

Narrated by: Benjamin Regan

Widely regarded as his major work, Crowley's Magick in Theory and Practice is an extensive treatise on magick, a system of Western occult practice synthesized from many sources, including Eastern yoga, hermeticism, medieval grimoires, contemporary magical theories, and Crowley's own original contributions. As important today as when it was first written, Magick in Theory and Practice is essential listening for anyone interested in occultism.

Amazing work from Crowley. Should have had a different narrator.

You should at least have a general knowledge of the occult to narrate a book like this. Nothing but mispronunciation after mispronunciation. He even calls “Thelema” “Thelma”.

Wonderful Book, Aweful Pronunciation

The readers voice is perfect but he cannot pronounce simple esoteric words. So much so, that sometime I was so distracted trying to understand the words he was mispronouncing, that I lost track of all thought and focus on the book.

Now when you read other comments

...and know what obstacles you will encounter while studying, do not feel intimidated. With minimum persistence you will find the proper pronunciation of some mispronounced names which appear not so often in the reading and even if not , AI of a search engine will correct your attempts to follow further immediately. Invaluable content of the book remains intact by small faults of a human being.

The law of "Thelma"

The reader has a good voice and reads at a nice pace, but some of the pronunciation is cringeworthy and grating to the ears.

Do what thou wilt

There might be some words that get mispronounced with regularity, but the wealth of knowledge found within this book is still readily available for the ears ready to hear it!
