About the Book

Epoch is a complete Chaos Magick system for the 21st century, combining evocative theory, ritual frameworks, and technowizard iconography. Inside you’ll find:

• A new pantheon for modern magicians
• Visual invocations and magical architecture rooted in semiotic sorcery
• Accessible yet profound rituals, pathworkings, and chaos-based spellcraft
• Integration of magical traditions with science, quantum theory & myth

This is not merely a book—it’s a portable temple, encoded in text and image.

Reader Praise & Reviews

“A talismanic grimoire for the digital age.”
— Phil Hine

“Epoch is a living temple of chaos magick—intellectually sharp and ritually potent.”
— Review, Starfire Publishing

” This really is a pantheon for the present day: up-to-date technowizard
artwork, a commentary which soars over millennia of tradition, picking out
what is useful and relevant at the present, and icons which sum up what
deities from the whole span of Western and not-so-Western culture have
cumulatively come to mean. This is a book to which goddesses and gods,
historically so sensitive about their images, should be happy to belong.” Professor Ronald Hutton – Fellow of the British Academy

” Not content to release a new grimoire, the Chancellor of Arcanorium College has produced three. Oh, also, one of them is a Necronomicon.
Elemental, Planetary, and Lovecraftian grimoires are joined by an accompanying tome of digitally and painstakingly rendered icons. The  Portals of Chaos, and its Chaobala systemisation, marks a particularly cohesive collection of Carroll’s work. But it also contains much exciting new material. Exploration of bi-planetary sorcery – a central component of Renaissance magic somewhat absent in modern occult discourse – is a particularly important feature.
Epoch is a useful resource both for those just starting out and for experienced magicians. There is something here to excite and challenge
occultists of many different dispositions and practices. ”    Alexander Cummins – Author of ‘The Starry Rubric’

“The enormous scope of the theory expounded within, coupled with the extraordinary pictures (which are better than anything of this ilk since Freida got down with her paintbrushes), provoke many thoughts as well as providing a neat summary of some complex ideas. Simultaneously a history and a prediction, it casts a spell covering spacetime and beyond, allowing your magick to have results.” Nikki Wyrd -Author of ‘The Book of Baphomet’
