Gustav Meyrink, pseudonimo di Gustav Meyer (1868 –1932), fu uno scrittore ed esoterista austriaco. I suoi romanzi descrivono situazioni e racconti ispirati a storie reali, a cui la sensibilità da occultista dello scrittore aggiunge atmosfere, descrizioni, teorizzazioni decisamente interessanti per gli appassionati del genere. In questo romanzo si tratta della vita di John Dee, occultista realmente esistito ai tempi della regina Elizabetta, più volte tacciato di negromanzia. Il romanzo servirà certamente da monito a tutti coloro che sono tentati di avvicinarsi all’occultismo con eccessiva leggerezza.
