Author Mark Alan Smith is an occultist and devotee of Hecate, who has practiced witchcraft for nearly three decades. In this volume he 'returns to the whole concept of Hecate and Her craft as opposed to the fragmented work of the past. The Path of the Dark Queen is followed through Qlippothic initiation, beyond the crossing of the Great Abyss to the realm of Lucifer and the Outer Gates of Night, which open the way to the throne of the Goddess of all Witchcraft.'
