Jake Stratton-Kent Author & Editor

Jake Stratton-Kent has been called the most notorious necromancer in England, and describes himself as a ‘very late Late Pagan.’ He has written numerous articles, pamphlets and books from the mid 1970s to the current day. With Scarlet Imprint he has published the Encyclopaedia Goetica, a three volume work comprising: The True Grimoire, a reconstructed and extensively commented edition of the Grimorium Verum; Geosophia, an extensive two volume survey of the Greek origins and mythic background of goetia; and The Testament of Cyprian the Mage, an analysis in two volumes of the roots of the grimoires and their spirit hierarchies in Late Antiquity. He has a background in the youth radicalisation and free festival movements of the 1970s that has never entirely left him.
