The Sorcerer's Secrets: Strategies in Practical Magick ReviewOverall, I felt that The Sorcerer's Secrets offered something most books on the occult don't: solid strategies for successful magic without pretense or froofroo theory. Miller focuses on techniques and strategies more than on spells, and he draws techniques from sources both magical and mundane. He's also eclectic without falling into the hard relativism one so often finds in eclectic works. I found a few of his techniques unique -- they clearly derive from someone who does real magic rather than someone just fantasizing about what they would do. I'd recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand how magic can cause practical changes in life.
Two flaws mar the book for me, though. First, and most seriously, it cites its sources rather haphazardly. There's a Greek invocation, for example, with a transliteration that will be of no use (as it doesn't distinguish vowel length), yet there's no citation for the original to look it up. There's a footnote, but it's not a proper citation, merely a thanks to the translator. Such lapses are common and a serious flaw for me. A less serious flaw is the apparently complete absence of an editor. Sentences will often have multiple verbs (one, usually the second one, more precise than the other, which tells me that this is an artifact of hasty revising); verbs will not agree with subjects; apostrophes are sprinkled in with no regard for any grammatical convention. Most people might find that trivial, but it drives me nuts, and in more than several places actively interferes with the reading process. In one place, he intimates that the book went from writing to the shelf in eight months. That's fast, and it shows. The book still gets four stars, because the information is that good, but it needs an editor.The Sorcerer's Secrets: Strategies in Practical Magick Overview
