It is with great sadness that I have to part with a large chunk of my book collection.
I have been collecting for a few years now, and in that time I have acquired quite a good collection of Crowley variations. It is these that I reluctantly have to sell.
I am also offering the larger part of my Kenneth Grant collection. I would ideally like to see the titles sold as I have collected them, in groups, so that is how I will list them.
If they do not sell in this form, then I will discuss individual titles and price. The only exception are the Typhonian Trilogies, these are sold as set only.
The following books are from my collection, they are not duplicate copies of books that have been bought and stored, once they are sold they will leave a big gap on my bookshelves and in myself.
