I have a copy, it’s sort of a devotional poem, not really a practical book to use. I’ve never resold a book before, but it would be my first to go!
I think it’s mainly a contemplative art piece to appreciate and contemplate if you’re into Feist’s style of things. I really prefer Don Webb’s and the Temple of Set’s approach to Set-Typhon more.
And to be honest, after buying it, I’m a little suspicious of what comes from Jack Grayle & Miskatonic books. I know in the ”rare occult book” world, Miskatonic is known to lowball sellers and then mark up a lot. All the re-prints of Hekataeon with more and more being added also seems like a carrot game.
