Synopsis

Thundersqueak is a rant, a polemic, a revolutionary manifesto and, in simple terms, a book of instructions for freeing the soul and living a better, or more interesting, life. In places it is a dialogue between two contrasting aspects of the author's personality. Written in three weeks in 1978, six months after the author completed the Abramelin Operation, it leads the reader through the dark night of the soul to the paradoxical dawn of hope. Many people claim that this book  changed their lives. It has also been described as "a good book to reader when you are young and feeling angry"

About this title

Review

“As well as being a particularly fine introduction to the practical side of the occult, Thundersqueak could almost be regarded as one of the ur-texts of Kaos, if not the one that set the kaos-sphere rolling." - Head Magazine, issue 5

“Thundersqueak is definitely on my list of Top Ten Most Influential Books That I Have Read” Rodney Orpheus

“This is a book to turn you on to so many things; it’s hard to know where to start... I suppose at a pinch this could be called a self-help book- as there are instructions inside that you can follow, and by doing so make your life better (or at least more interesting)- and perhaps happier- even if “the only true happiness is to live dangerously in times of peace, and to be at peace in times of cri- sis” ... but New-Age fluffy it is NOT! This is ‘self-help by self psychic-surgery’: It tears your self to bits and chucks out the crap.” Kate Hoolu on www.occultebooks.com

Extracts from Amazon.com:

This is the real Fight Club, multiplied exponentially

[Author] is brilliant in writing convincing arguments to bring about your own inspiration for change and growth. He illustrates the hows and whys of change, one of the truly hardest things to pursue in one's life. The benefits of reading this book are innumerable, and if you want something easy to get into and challenging, order this. Dukes is the king of ontological anarchy.

This book is absolutely phenomenal... it is nearly impossible to convey how amazing it is, or to even touch upon how deeply it probes into reality as we know it.
