Lyzolda is known for her affinity for blood and uses it as a source of power for her spells and rituals. She is often seen collecting blood from her victims and using it to fuel her dark magic.

“An astonishingly original book! Chad Sanders makes a compelling case for the magic to be found in leveraging your authentic self in a business world that emphasizes conformity.”
Not only did the stories and interviews in Black Magic forever change how I think about leadership and culture, they challenged me as a parent, friend and citizen. He wrote occult texts on subjects including divination, esotericism, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and ceremonial magic, Kabbalism and alchemy; he also translated and reissued several important mystical and alchemical works.

The Book of Black Magic and Ceremonial Magic
With this book the author has assembled together a number of magical spells and treatises from a variety of obscure sources. The result is a great overview of magic from one of the most important figures in Western occultism. When critical at times of Eliphas Levi and Waite's former associate, S. L. MacGregor Mathers, it shows an attempt at being honest with his views on magic. He also covers many of the original early grimoires, sometimes quoting them, and points out flaws in the more recent translations of his time. This is an expanded, updated version of his previous work, The Book of Black Magic. The book is a gold-mine of smaller magical pamphlets published in France in the nineteenth century, which were reproductions of earlier eighteenth-century works, now preserved in this book and valued for their content. All in all this is not so much a book of rituals to perform, which are plentiful and easy to find. It is instead a great reference book on ritual magic, of which only a few good ones exist today. In this regard, it is considered one of the best.

Об авторе (2006)
Arthur Edward Waite was born on October 2, 1857 in Brooklyn, New York. He was a poet and scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. Waite joined the Outer Order of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in January 1891 after being introduced by E.W. Berridge. In 1899 he entered the Second order of the Golden Dawn. He became a Freemason in 1901, and entered the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia in 1902. In 1903 Waite founded the Independent and Rectified Order R. R. et A. C. Waite was a prolific author and many of his works were well received in academic circles. He wrote occult texts on subjects including divination, esotericism, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and ceremonial magic, Kabbalism and alchemy; he also translated and reissued several important mystical and alchemical works. His works on the Holy Grail, influenced by his friendship with Arthur Machen, were particularly notable. A number of his volumes remain in print, including The Book of Ceremonial Magic (1911), The Holy Kabbalah (1929), A New Encyclopedia of Freemasonry (1921), and his edited translation of Eliphas Levi's 1896 Transcendental Magic, its Doctrine and Ritual (1910), having seen reprints in recent years. Waite also wrote two allegorical fantasy novels, Prince Starbeam (1889) and The Quest of the Golden Stairs (1893).

Reviews for "Lyzolda's Prophecy: The Blood Witch's Vision of the Future"
1. Michael - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "Lyzolda the blood witch". The plot was confusing and disjointed, making it hard to follow and fully engage with the story. The characters lacked depth and development, making it difficult to connect with them on any level. The writing style felt choppy and the pacing was all over the place. Overall, I found this book to be a letdown and would not recommend it.
2. Samantha - 1/5 stars - I couldn't even get through "Lyzolda the blood witch". The writing was so poorly done that it pulled me out of the story. The dialogue was stilted and unnatural, and the descriptions lacked detail and imagination. The characters were one-dimensional and I couldn't bring myself to care about their fates. It felt like a waste of time and money.
3. Roberta - 2.5/5 stars - "Lyzolda the blood witch" had an interesting premise, but the execution left much to be desired. The pacing was incredibly slow, and I found myself losing interest multiple times throughout the book. The characters felt flat and their actions often didn't make sense. The world-building was also lacking, with little explanation or exploration of the magical elements. While there were some redeeming qualities, overall, I was disappointed by this book.
