I'm interested in Demons in general and I wanna learn and practice this path.

I know about a few books, but don't know which one to start with.

Here's the books that I know of:

1. The Lesser Key of Solomon. (Aleister Crowley)

2. Daemonolatry Goetia. (S. Connolly)

3. Dictionary of Demons. (Michelle Belanger)

4. Lemegeton. (Victor Shaw)

5. Lilith: Dark Female Archetype. (Asenath Mason)

6. The Left Hand Path. (Asenath Mason)

Are any of these a good beginner book?

If so, I'm going to order one of them soon :)devil:

Hmm everyone has their own opinions. My choice to start out with that stands out to me from your list is S. Connolly's book and the left hand by Asenath Mason. Start where you feel you should though.

Thanks, I have been feeling Asenath Mason's book just by looking at the cover. And I have watched her videos too. So it must be the right choice anyway :)devil:

It really comes down to personal taste, but two books I’ve read recently and would class as beginner friendly are The Book Of Kings by Rev Cain and At Satan’s Altar by Marie Ravensoul.
The Book of Kings deals with several prominent Demon Lords and their areas of influence and At Satan’s Altar is a good choice if you are looking to connect with Satan or Lucifer in particular.

Thanks, I haven't heard of those before. I will look them up before I make my final decision :)devil:

Personally I love Asenath Masons work. I have just about every book she’s written. The Draconian Ritual Book was extremely beneficial to me at the start of my journey.

That's interesting, I'm going to order The Left Hand Path book by her tomorrow. I think it would be great choice to get me started. :)devil:

Awesome. Personally I’ve not read anything by her that I haven’t found beneficial on my path. I hope you like it!

Hello, Help please, I am not sure if I am going about this in the correct fashion so let me know if there is a better way to ask questions. My question is, I would like to read the S Connolly books The Complete Book of Demonolatry and Daemonolarty Goetia which should I read first? Thank you.
