Sydney, Australia: House 418 / OTO, 2006. First Edition - Limited. Softcover. Quarto. 154pp. Color and black and white illustrations, printed on high quality matte art paper. Artist’s edition of 20 numbered copies with three large original drawings by Barry Hale (there was also an edition of 190 regular copies) and signed on the title page by Frater Numa (Steve King). The first drawing, in red, of a horned head, takes up most of the title page, the second and third drawings, both in black ink of two figures with flowing sigil-like lines around them, take up over half of p. 16 and over 2/3 of p. 93. A beautifully presented journal, produced by House 418, the publishing arm of the O.T.O. in Australia. It includes ten essays centered around the OTO, magick and Thelema, eight of which were written by Frater Numa, a major figure in the development of the O.T.O. in Australia, and one each by Fratres Soma 156 and Baltan. Although the essays were mostly written in the nineties, they sparkle with innovation and new perspectives: and typical Australian candor! They are accompanied by selections from six series of artwork by Barry William Hale and collaborators, as well the ‘art diaries’ of the late Steven McCubben.
