Format:Taschenbuch
This book is an absolut must for anyone interested in the practice and art of shamanism. And for every magician who is not fixated of ritual magick and wants to try out something new in awhile. It really is a beginners course to mastering all the basic magical skills that seem so hard to learn when reading other authors, and so easy when reading Jan. It really is magick without tears.
The book also is more than a mere beginners practice guide to "how to change your reality". I myself havve been studying magick for years, and every now and then I get this book out of my magick box and start reading it, surprised to see how much I overlooked the last time or how different I see things now. This is one piece of magickal work YOU should have, whether you consider yourself a shaman or not.

Brilliant book, and my favorite on magick, because it brings so many seemingly diverse things such as Chaos magick, NLP, shamanism together and the author has a fantastic aversion to dogma. Everything is explained clearly, its packed with wonderfull practical exercises, humour, humour and more humour tread their way tru the whole book. A must read and the first book I recommend to anyone interested in seeing the Magick in the Magick.

Jan Fries & Visual Magick
20. Oktober 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
I am fond of this book. I have my doubts about Jan Fries.
Fries neatly describes a practice containing elements of NLP (representational systems & perceptual positions), automatic drawing techniques, and a clear (excellent, even) coverage of sigil technique. Jan's emphasis on a non-forceful kind of Taoist approach is worthy of special attention. I have not found much of the latter half of the book useful, myself, but the parts that I have found useful are very well done and free of obfuscation.
That said, I do have a problem with Jan's egotistical glorification of Thelema (in odd and not necessarily appropriate ways) and his claims that some effective techniques of Chaos Magick are "nonsense" (contrary to the experience of a great many people who use them). His statements that visions appear shadey and vague as if one were just imagining them, though I may have misunderstood his meaning and/or intent, lead me to question just how much of an "Adept" he actually is in certain respects.
That said, I believe the book survives the author, and is a worthwhile contribution to any occultist's library (well, unless of course you're a die-hard ceremonialist. Not much here for you in that case).

one of the best "chaos magick" books around
21. Juli 1999
Format:Taschenbuch
Though Jan doesn't consider himself a practicioner of "chaos magick" (he is a neo-thelemite in the Maat current) people who *do* consider themselves practicioners of "chaos magick" love him.
Very down to earth. Check out his stuff on runes too.
Forget Pete Carroll, that pompous mystagogue. Stick with Jan Fries and maybe a bit of Phil Hine, and you're on solid ground.

Superb Postmodern Grimoire
30. September 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Jan Fries has done a fine job with this work. The book is sub-titled "A Manual of Freestyle Shamanism," and to anyone in the know that seems to fit the books nicely. This work is very much for working magicians who are not afraid to leave their comfort zones. Fries has exercises in every chapter of the book corresponding to the philosophy covered, a rarity in occult works these days. This book is an important text that I believe all modern practitioners should have a copy of, if not for themselves, for potential students. This work will save the would be occultist YEARS of sifting through booshwa to get the facts about magic. In regard to this, the section on sigil magic alone is worth the price of the book. If one truly wishes to the deep transformations that are meant to be brought about by occult workings, this is perhaps one of the best places to start.
As an aside I must mention that this work will not be for those searching for "traditional" forms of shamanism, primitivism or "neo-shamanism." Rather the work is a mix of psychology, NLP, trance, chaos magick, and shamanic technique that blend together to form superb practice. I recommend this book highly to all seekers on the path. I do not recommend that the practices employed be used in a group working, unless all have been working together strictly using said practices. Rather this book works at the core of the occult, personal transformation. Also, the work makes no religious claims or clarifications, another rarity in occult works. This book can be used by a magician, witch, sorcerer, etc. of any stripe. It is so non-judgemental about individual beliefs and practices that it can even easily be employed by an atheistic occultist, and yes they do exist. The only reason that I have not given this book a four star rating is that I do disagree with the author on a few points made in regard to tradition, but otherfise a most excellent work.
