Dion Fortune And The Inner Light

I think I have read most books on Dion Fortune, but this one is definitely my favorite. It is an engaging, well-informed, and well-writen account of this fascinating woman's life and work. Gareth Knight was granted access to the archives of the Society of the Inner Light, and the material from these archives offers a fascinating insight into the workings of the group in Dion Fortune's days. Despite being very involved with Fortune's work (he was trained in the Inner Light during the 50's and 60's), Knight manages to stay fairly objective and factual, more so than Fortune's previous biographers. I absolutely couldn't put this book down. I consider it to be the definitive DF biography, and I don't expect it will ever be bettered.

Finally, a biography that does justice to Dion Fortune! This well-written and insightful book kept me up into the wee hours. Besides a full account of Dion Fortune's life (written with the cooperation of her Society of the Inner Light, and the use of its archives), there are rare photographs, and numerous excerpts from spiritual communications received by her. In addition to the outer history, Gareth Knight seamlessly weaves in a deep understanding of the inner dynamics of DF's life, and the life of the Society she founded. This is a book not to be missed!

This not only gives an accurate and insightful overview of Dion Fortune's life, but also offers many insights into her teachings. Gareth Knight is a writer of huge integrity and we owe him a great deal for bringing this material to light.

This is a significant book about Dion Fortune and Knight has the advantage of being in possession of many documents that were originally available only to members of the Servants of the Inner Light.For anyone wishing to know more about the woman who was Dion Fortune this is required reading.

An absolute must for any fan of Dion Fortune. Extreemly well written and informative, covering the whole life of Dion Fortune from her very early times, labeled the formative years and on to her work with Blavatski, the Golden Dawn and the formation of the Inner Light. It also tells the complete story of her so called 'Novels' and explains how to use them for pathworking and connections to the Qabalah. The most comprehensive account to date of this enigmatic person

Good review of the Dion Fortune's Path.

Just what I expected. Grate
