The Book of Oberon, a fascinating addition to the magical literature of the Elizabethan era, is a must-have for magic practitioners, collectors, and historians. This lavishly illustrated grimoire is a meticulous transcription and translation of a sixteenth-century manuscript acquired by the esteemed Folger Shakespeare Library. Unlike the more theoretical magic books of the era, this collection of spells, secrets, and summonings was compiled gradually by unknown authors for working practical magic.

Now published in a premium hardcover edition, The Book of Oberon retains the original's red lettering of significant words and holy names. It includes rituals for summoning a long list of spirits and faeries (including Oberion, Fairy King and close relation to Shakespeare's Oberon), original drawings, common prescriptions used by cunning folk, and instructions for dealing with Goetic demons that were censored in other texts.

Another notable publication from Llewellyn is The Long-Lost Friend, a collection of herbal formulas and magical prayers that draws from the traditional folk magic of Pennsylvania Dutch customs and pow-wow healers. Discovered among the antiquarian stacks of the Bodleian Library, this authentic work of seventeenth-century English magic has been meticulously transcribed and annotated by Daniel Harms and illustrated by James R. Clark.

Through expert annotations and translations of the original English, Latin, and Welsh content, Daniel Harms has made this untitled volume accessible to all collectors with a new hardcover book, The Book of Four Occult Philosophers.

In conclusion, Llewellyn's commitment to providing illumination, instruction, and new perspectives on a wealth of metaphysical topics is exemplified in its diverse range of publications, including the captivating The Book of Oberon and the intriguing The Long-Lost Friend and The Book of Four Occult Philosophers.
