“In The Brazen Serpent, Helen Kirkby offers a far-reaching and thoughtful exploration of the philosophical, psychological and practical aspects of the Qabalah. Keep an eye on this promising new author!”

—David Shoemaker, author of Living Thelema, The Winds of Wisdom and other writings

“. . . a whirlwind tour through the Sephiroth and Paths of the Tree of Life through the lens of a Thelemic practitioner's experience and understanding. It is clear that the author has spent a great deal of time with Aleister Crowley's magical system of Thelema as well as with traditional Qabalah, as they are blended together seamlessly throughout the text . . . .”
