Limited hardback edition, now out of print. Head and Tail bands, book ribbon, gold foil blocking to front, spine and back of book.
+ Codex Icons (Limited to 150 copies) - A set of 72 cards featuring graphic and sigillic formula from both Volume 2 of Black Dragon and Codex Ad Limina. The set of cards are to be used as a visionary device for communicating directly with those daemons, totems and djinn featured across the text.
Codex Ad Limina marks a further expansion of themes addressed in Volume 2 of Book of the Black Dragon. In this volume the author delves into the role the Black Bull has as a totem for the sinistral horn daemon emissary. His role as an afflicted form in shadow brings the sorcerer to the point of his/her initiation into the Olde Companie of Cunning Folke. Not only does the Codex interpret the language being used for substantiating the relationship between the sorcerer and the Black Bull, but it follows this by guiding the reader through relevant ritual workings that prepare the practitioner for his/her eventual immersion.

Out of print first hardback edition, limited to 350 copies only. Published by Kamuret Press 2021.
Condition: Fine, unread copy. Extremely minor crease to top right dustwrapper, otherwise completely pristine.
Edited, annotated and introduced by Richard Kaczynski, this edition far surpasses that found in the Collected Works: red and black ink has been employed to capture the feel of the 1904 edition; a 50 page introduction by Crowley’s foremost biographer introduces the reader to the many themes to be found throughout the book; finally, copious end-notes further elucidate concepts and ideas in need of clarification.
From the introduction:
‘The Sword of Song is arguably the greatest story never told. It is a book of firsts: his first manifesto, his first talismanic book, his first mystical essays, his first nod to sexual mysteries, and an enticing preview of what was to come in The Book of the Law, the spirit-writing that would form the cornerstone of his philosophy’.
