[Michael John Thompson]

We are please to be able to offer a copy of the deluxe Leatherbound edition:

Qutub
The Point
By Andrew D. Chumbley

Qutub treats of the Arcanum of the Opposer, a magical formula of the 
Crooked Path concerning the Powers of Self-overcoming. The book 
defines and illustrates the Design of Crooked Path Sorcery through a 
series of 72 arcane poetic verses, each representing a specific 
arcanum of Draconian Gnosis. Arising from diverse initiatic currents 
and spiritual streams, this Wisdom encompasses the ancient Persian 
sorceries of the Maskarae and Yatukan; the pure mysticism and beauty 
of the Sufic Way; the Yezidis, collected Kurdish tribes comprising 
the "People of the Book", and the modern-day exemplar of the Witches' 
Sabbatic Cultus. Together, these sources inform and inspire the 
verses of Qutub, Point and Axis of the World, weaving a rich tapestry 
to which is appended a scholarly commentary. This Illumination 
ultimately comprises the body of the Dragon of Eld, the Ancient 
Serpent of Light whose totality manifests within the miscrocosmic 
earth as the Great Opposer, whose Rite is included in the book.
