Well I've been studying Magick for some time now.. But unfortunately I can't get a hold on a Book, a Magick Book.. The things that I got a hold on are some Pages, Articles and Blogs and Wiki. And also The Sixth and Seventh Book of Mosses which is a headache. Sadly the bookstores near me doesn't have books that will be useful for my learning of the art. So if you can point me to some books that I can easily access online that'll be great. Thanks!!
