“Carl Abrahamsson’s Meetings with Remarkable Magicians is an engrossing journey through the heyday of chaos magick and occulture. An essential read for young witches and occultists who want not only to do magick but live magick as well.” * Chaweon Koo, author of Spell Bound *
“Carl Abrahamsson has done it again. In his new work, the master occultist once again displays his uncanny knack for being at the right place at the right time to ask the right people the right questions. And boy, does he get answers. From his formative years in the 1980s and ’90s up to the present day, Abrahamsson has had his ever-sensitive finger on the always unpredictable pulse of postmodern occultism. In his new book, he shares the remarkable insights and adventures he has had along the way.

“On the surface, Meetings with Remarkable Magicians is an engaging and detailed record of a historic time when magick, art, and mainstream culture coincided. It’s a tale populated by diverse and wonderful characters and places. But it’s not just a description; this book is a work of magick itself, capturing a self-reflective arc of one man’s journey to transcendence. This is your own opportunity to meet a remarkable magician: Carl Abrahamsson." * Philip H. Farber, author of Brain Magick *
“This book is no old-school hagiography, nor a simple recounting of ritual practices or name-checking remarkable and iconic figures in a magical and creative community. In fact, I would balk at describing it as a book and prefer to designate it as a high-order synaptic stimulant. Meetings with Remarkable Magicians is a fascinating, well-written piece of literature that buzzes with information, process, and art surrounding a group of people who chose to live their lives in a transformative, challenging, and often subversive but always creative manner. Simply enough, it’s a great book that informs you, shakes you up, and takes you to places where there is no such thing as stasis—only endless creative, transformative movement.” * Charlotte Rodgers, author of The Bloody Sacrifice *
“Carl Abrahamsson is a gardener of outsider blooms, a curator of creators, and a maverick maestro of magick. He makes stuff happen. With his infinite enthusiasm for the weird and the interesting, he is a swirling galaxy of ideas. We need more of him in our world.” * Val Denham, visual and recording artist *
