Chaos Monkey
This is a book of magic, but also a guidebook on how
to survive the natural chaos which plagues those
who choose the magical path ... or more precisely are
chosen by it. With some
practical advice and basic spells designed to
work within the very world of chaos wherein magic finds
its direction, this book is a simple yet
unequalled sourcebook for dealing with the unpredictability
of magic in a multiverse of natural chaos,
the realm of the Chaos Monkey.
Understanding Chaos Magic
This is an introductory book. It is written
for a widespread audience, ranging from the
merely curious to the serious student of magic
who wishes to learn about this area. It is the
intention that after reading this book, you
may have a reasonable understanding of what
Chaos Magic is all about.It is my privilege to have the permission of Ray Sherwin to publish his classic books on Chaos Magic here on my site. That is the primary reason for this section, the Chaos Library, to exist. These books are currently out of print and hard to find. They may not have anything new for the seasoned Chaos Magician, but this is where all of the ideas which we now take for granted started. For those who are new to Chaos magic, this is my personal recommendation for where to begin.
