I am more than familiar with the frustrations involved in exploring Crowley's writings. The first Crowley book I ever got - indeed one of my first books on Magick of any kind - was the old Dover edition of Magick in Theory and Practice and almost nothing in it made any sense to me at the time.

One of the main reasons for my initial difficulty was the simple lack of basic information about the book. Even today most people still don't know that Magick in Theory and Practice (MTP for short) was never intended to be a stand-alone work. It is in fact the third part of a four-part magnum opus simply titled Book Four. Had I known that simple fact I could have started with the earlier sections and saved myself a lot of puzzlement.
One of the most common things I hear from people new to Magick or Crowley is that they'd really like to read Crowley, but don't know where to start.
A Beginner's Guide to Crowley Books is a short PDF booklet written by O.T.O.'s Frater Julianus in an attempt to help clear things up. So if you've ever wanted to study Crowley but just ended up scratching your head wondering what in the hell The Vision and the Voice is about, you ought to give this guide a chance.
