An entertaining book that just took a little too long to get where it was going in my opinion. It also painted a bit of a cartoon portrait of occultists. Although I know that some are just as absurd as the book shows, some seem to be decent, relatively normal people that you wouldn't suspect of being into the occult if they didn't tell you. Of course, occultism and conspiracy theories ended up being more of a backdrop than a central theme, which may be why I was disappointed, being a big conspiracy theory fan.
