London, Starfire Publishing Ltd, 2002.
Octavo, xxxviii, 603 pages with 4 illustrations plus 29 plates, a colour frontispiece and a tailpiece ('The Typhonian Trilogies').
Papered boards; edges very lightly marked; essentially a fine copy with the fine dustwrapper.
One of 1000 copies; it is 'the final volume of a series of Trilogies which trace the emergence into historic times of an ancient body of occult doctrines known as the "Typhonian Tradition"' (dustwrapper blurb). Offered with a fine copy of the 2016 revised edition: 'Originally published in 2002 and long out of print, this enhanced edition of 1500 copies is freshly typeset in an octavo format of 592 pages.... with a colour frontispiece, a 32-page section of colour and half-tone plates, illustrated endpapers and a full-colour dustjacket, this republication incorporates corrections noted in Kenneth Grant's personal copy of the book. Many of the plates have been rephotographed, and some are printed in colour for the first time. Six of the plates are new, and are taken from an illuminated "Book of the Law" created by Steffi Grant in the mid 1940s' (publisher's website). [2 items].
