Yay, glad to see it back!

Now I'm randomly curious if any of the scarlet imprint books are on the future roster--I'm enjoying the stuff put out by Nicholaj De Mattos Frisvold and Jake Stratton-Kent, but I haven't really explored anyone else's work. The current revival of the scholar-practioner-sorceror types are making me very happy (and poor).

While I agree LaBorde could have been better at sourcing, Devo isn't exactly unbiased when it comes to KO, and in my understanding has taken their courses.

I may have to review this book myself sooner or later, because despite any shortcomings its still a great resources for beginners.

Rational Wiki has very good criticism of Tamara Siuda, which must be taken in account should you ever hear defenses of her or her group: http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/House_of_Netjer

I don't agree with the neo-atheism of their site but when it comes to KO and their leader they're pretty spot on.
