I dig this book. Lot's of good information. In fact, I'm finding I'll need to read it a couple of times. Not that it's too heady, it's just packed with a lot of good info.The writing is very understandable, it's not written as though I'm being talked down to or as if I will only grasp the information after a decade or more of studying the occult. I think with a basic understanding of the occult anyone should be able to grasp what's being laid out in this book. It makes so much sense.I once read a review, which could have been here, that stated the author laid it all out, but then didn't tell us what to do with the entities once we've created them. That couldn't be farther from the truth. The end has examples from the author and co-authors. The author is the messenger, we need to do our own work with the message given. It would be like me expecting the driving instructor to continue driving for me once I had the information to do it myself.Our greatest gift are our minds, we need to use them, exercise them! Take the information and think for yourself. Hell take the information and add onto it, add your own personality into it. Again, CME is a blue print.I definitely recommend this book to all practitioners.

Golem says "two thumbs up"...
It was a quick read, right to the point, but a very well rounded exposition on the topic without pretending to be anything other than what the title claims, a true guide to working with the subtle energies, to break off a piece of your Self and program it to fulfill your desires. Especially nice are the real world examples discussing what worked and where things went wrong. Also, old school practitioners of the black art of Khem will get a nice prize inside this box of Cracker Jacks. This is a must have guide if you plan to create entities or do any "reality hacking". It even comes with a useful, comprehensive worksheet to design and program your entity to help you maximize results. This is also a great way to get use out of those system reference guides collecting dust on your shelf. If you're tired of pontificating the philosophy and ethics of magickal practice and are ready to get down to work and build your own golem, this one is for you.

You need to get this book. It's absolutely helpful and savvy!
This is a great step-by-step guide on how to create a magickal entity based on need. It explains how they work, what to expect in terms of their abilities and things they cannot cover, and offers some great examples of created servitors from start to finish and the result of using them (it serves as an outline that can be adapted). The book also offers a blank outline that can be used to create a magickal entity from start to finish. If you're looking to work with an energy entity, this is your book.

Its...ok
This style of creating a magical entity is very similar to the Franz Bardon method. Although Bardon spends approximately a page discussing the creation of simple elementals, and a few more pages creating simple talismans and elementaries, to add it up, its probably no more than 10 total pages. These authors have stretched those concepts into a book. Now let me start off by saying that people who have a solid base of theory and practice will have no problem using this book. Of course people who have that probably already know how to do this in the first place, and this book offers only the simplest methods to creating something in a manner quite similar to bardon.The book reads a little fluffy. Its got a real new age feel. The book is lacking in some places where I think they should have explained the theory a bit more, and in exchange they substituted simplicity. They mention the Opening by Watchtower and Middle Pillar only in passing and have minimal information about things like sigils and correspondences and so forth, leaving that up to the individual student.My 2 biggest problems with the book are as follows:1) They don't encourage much prep work, unlike virtually every other magical system out there, and in fact they clearly state that any systems that advocate caution and prep are to be avoided. They do encourage you to do things like meditate and do martial arts and draw, and then go about your astral hijinks... 0_o2) They only briefly discuss the ideas of Karma. They mention it briefly and seem to focus on the wiccan ideas of it. And then later they go on QUITE PROUDLY to tell about how one of the authors made an entity to ruin the lives of people who lived in an aparment building...cuz I guess she felt like it.While I understand that there are more systems of magic than Kabbalistic/GD, I usually try to avoid any book that uses the word Faery more than once.So my best suggestion would be to buy Initiation to Hermetics. Its a great book, that has a lot more information. And most importantly it provides the tools you need to get a servitor to function properly in the first place, because without a foundation your house may sink into the mud.

A must for every magician
This is the best book I've read on creating entities. The authors give an excellent, yet easy way to follow the steps to creating entities. I was skeptical at first but I tried the techniques word for word and with positive magickal intent, creativity and thoroughness to the steps I find these techniques to work with a little practice.The authors very easily explain the steps needed and how the entity can be created, programmed and dissolved, if necessary and I am very impressed with the results I got from following this book. Thanks for sharing your methods in such a great book and I highly recommend it for anyone experienced in the occult. I wish the three of you all the best in the world!
