2nd edition. Sealed.

The Faceless God by Dr. Tomas Vincente is a scholarly and initiatic study of the hidden god who stands at the threshold between the Witches’ Sabbath, ancient Egyptian chthonic religion, and the nightmarish visionary worlds of H. P. Lovecraft. At its center is the mysterious figure of the Faceless God: daemon of the depths, dark psychopomp, and initiator into the more shadowed strata of magical consciousness.

In this revised and expanded second edition, Vincente traces the connections between the European lore of the Sabbath and the archaic cult of the ram-headed Banebdjedet, understood here as a netherworld form of Osiris — Osiris as the Black Sun. With a new introduction by the author and David Beth’s essay “Children of the Abyss,” this edition broadens the work’s scope while deepening its central inquiry into chthonic religion, Sabbatic initiation, and the abyssal dimensions of magical experience.
