About Maestro Nestor

Maestro Nestor's interest in the occult stemmed from an interest in the darker aspects of magic during his teens, including Satanism, which he practiced until his early twenties.  On a trip to New York things changed when during a book buying spree he encountered Cavendish's The Black Arts and Waite's The Book of Black Magic which introduced him to the grimoire traditions, and since then he has explored the right hand path traditions extensively.  His work has previously been published on a variety of websites, as well as in Swedish language magazines.  His essay "Demons & Devils" appeared in the Both Sides of Heaven anthology edited by Sorita d'Este.  He is currently engaged in working on a series of books on the practice of grimoire magic.  See www.grimoiremagic.com for more information.
