I really liked the Black Magician trilogy. I’d love to read more books that have ‘evil’ magic as a major component of the plot, preferably with some kind of trope subversion.
Digital Signal Processing by Proakis and Manolakis
I’m sorry, is there a joke here that I don’t see?
Very good one, definitely would recommend to anyone else interested in black magic.
The Laundry Files by Charles Stross are rather good. It’s a Cthulhu Mythos like world, seen through the lens of espionage, bureaucracy, and computer science. The magic starts off fairly low key, but as the books progress it becomes a bigger and bigger component of the characters. Human sacrifice and the maddening effects of magic are fairly consistent themes.
Looks promising, thanks a lot!!
The Power of Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy
Did you read the second trilogy (traitor spy) and the prequel (magician’s apprentice) as well?
No, I was pretty disappointed in the ending so I never tried to read the author’s other books.
Not sure how easy it is to get old comic books now that digital is an option but there was a whole doctor strange arc where he sorta got tainted and had to increasingly rely on dark magic. To me it was on the level of iron mans armor wars and I really wish both had been used with the movie arcs.
