After I reviewed the cards in the Deck, I quickly decided to purchase Necronomicon and its sequel, Ahazred. I was not disappointed with my purchases. I would suggest having the Tarot Deck with you, when you read this book. Although Tyson's descriptions of the creatures, characters, images and events in the book, are very well done, I found it more helpful to be able to see with my eyes, what was being described, rather than having to rely only on my imagination. You can definitely enjoy the book without the Tarot Deck, but I found that the Deck increased my enjoyment of the book. I won't give details of the book, because I believe that each reader should use his/her own imagination, with or without the Tarot cards, to picture what is being described. The descriptions of the events, characters, creatures, deities and myths are very detailed, so they should be read carefully, to fully grasp what is being described. This will aid in the enjoyment of the book. I enjoyed reading the book and was mystified by what was read. After I finished the book, I said to myself: "Whow, this would make some movie". ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to mythos literature *by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2010* I've had this book for well over a year now and have enjoyed it greatly. While note the sanity blasting tome of the original stories, it is a well though out and assembled narrative which touches on and reveals connections to other works upon reflection. Tyson's mythos scholarship and detail works in very smoothly, even neatly working around some of the original authors' inconsistencies. (If bored, plenty of margin room would allow annotation to reference other mythos works.) I would recomend this without hesitation to any mythos fan, or mythos tabletop roleplayer. It works as source / setting material, a written, studyable prop, and a good read by itself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Fiction Almost Believe, Now that's good fiction! *by D***O on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2009* After reading for awhile and reflecting on the other reviews, a greater perspective is revealed. Yes of course it is certainly a work of fiction very well based on Cthulu Mythos. However, it is very well written and portrayed as to where one can actually imagine these things existing. Since other reviews have covered the contents of the book sufficiently I will focus on other aspects. Symbols, sigils, artifacts in all cultures are believed to contain real power when wielded correctly. For example in Hindu culture the various forms of the Yantra can help one unravel secrets of the universe. So what I'm getting that is it's a marvelous collection of fiction that reflects our real world. I agree it is not anywhere close to a book of magic or the dark arcane, rather an account of a Mad Arab's life and spiritual journey as a necromancer. I have always been fascinated with dark magic and necromancy though never cared to practice it. For wisdom will tell you great sacrifice will be required for such pursuits. Perhaps more than most are willing to pay. Jab and poke at that all you want, there are people out there who believe the arts are real and I will not judge or doubt them. You should only doubt an individual who does not possess sufficient intellect or personal power. Some believe Wizards and Mages did exist at one time and I will not doubt that either. The closest thing to that it seems in our day and age is spiritual teachers of great accomplishment who lead very disciplined lives.Tyson did a wonderful job overall, evoking a wide variety of emotions. And more importantly than following H.P. Lovecraft, it allows the mind a chance to step outside of the "box." Expansion of the mind is a good thing. The macabre aspect is titillating and a fresh break from light & good. It reminded me as I read that there is a dark side to the world that is just as potent and real as the good side. I am not a fan of religion yet I consider myself very spiritual simply because of my practices and beliefs. From that side, the Necronomicon is a fascinating aspect of what it would be like to watch worshipers of strange and putrid gods.Not all the locations on the map are real (at least to my limited knowledge) yet some of them are. Just from reading this book, I am interested in visiting Damascus, Thebes, Memphis, etc. These were certainly scenes of real power and ancient human culture that gave Donald Tyson a great platform to work from. Who doesn't want to delve into our ancient heritage in some form or fashion?I will leave with one last perspective to consider. From what I've researched, it is said that H.P. Lovecraft received much inspiration for his works from his dreams. Some believe dreams open you to a real world that has less barriers to other worlds yet is often difficult to accurately interpret. Who is to really say with authority that some of Lovecraft's dreams weren't real? Even me, who doesn't tend towards believing horror fiction characters and gods, has a weird feeling the pit of my stomach that Lovecraft's works were not 100% fiction. It's just a feeling, not a basis for reality. Just consider it. And if not, then at least it is a tribute to the genius of Lovecraft to evoke such feelings in many people, myself included. ## Frequently Bought Together - Necronomicon: The Wanderings of Alhazred (Necronomicon Series, 1) - Necronomicon Tarot (Necronomicon Series, 3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/12409439-necronomicon](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/12409439-necronomicon) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
