Poetry and Drama says: Creation and destruction of Gods has been for centuries mankind’s favourite religious mania and philosophical exercise. ‘The Book of Lies’ is a witty, instructive, and wholly admirable collection of paradoxes, in themselves.

Frater Perdurabo, however, has not written a Philosophical or mystical treatise; on the contrary, his book leaves one witha fee…

…fs, he loves all signs of immortality in faith, and of redemption by charity, which is all discipline and obedience. We have just read a book published under the influence of astral and magnetic intoxication, and we have been struck by the anarchical tendencies with which it is filled under a great appearance of benevolence and religion.

His Book of Black Magic and of Pacts was not only a monument of misunderstanding, but of garbling and mutilation; nor did the future saint! improve matters by the dishonest trick of reissuing the volume as the Book of Ceremonial Magic, or Book of Magic, when he tried to make a market in the more benighted agricultural districts of England.
