About Brood of the Witch-Queen

Prefatory Notice The strange deeds of Antony Ferrara, as herein related, are intended to illustrate certain phases of Sorcery as it was formerly practised (according to numerous records) not only in Ancient Egypt but also in Europe during the Middle Ages. In no case do the powers attributed to him exceed those which are claimed for a fully equipped Adept. S.R. ~
