Hello from Toronto

Hello, from Toronto.

I have to keep this brief as it's 6:45 AM and I'm getting ready for work, so:

I got into Kenneth Grant through my interest in Austin Osman Spare, which was initiated by my love for the post-industrial group Coil. The first book I read by Grant was Outside the Circles of Time, which has remained my favourite of his, tied with Nightside of Eden. 

Aside from Grant I'm also currently studying much of the Cultus Sabbati literature including Chumbley's Azoetia and Schulke's Ars Philtron, Viridarium Umbris and Lux Haeresis. Daniel Schulke is quite possibly my favourite living occult writer. 

I've been browsing these forums for a while now and look forward to engaging in discussions on various topics. You seem like a pleasant group of people...

Welcome to the forum, beakrippedtick. I share your appreciation of those authors also. We are living in extremely blessed times as far as esoteric literature is concerned. The quality and quantity of what is now available is truly awesome, it hasn't been like this for millennia I would wager. Of course, obviously, the Grants have played an influential role in all of it, from their cultivation of the crop of Crowley right through stimulating Spare's ultimate flowering and subsequent re-discovery by the species, to their own extensive offerings, all of which combined as an influence upon the present generation you would have to admit is monumental.

Yours in non-mobile becoming,

Welcome to the forums, beakrippedtick. I'm very partial to Spare myself. My favourite written works of his are those he wrote in his last years, assembled by the Grants in Zos Speaks!.

Looking forward to your participation.
