A recollection of Anton Szandor LaVey by one of those who knew him best. LaVey served as Rice's mentor from the Eighties until his death in 1997. During this time, Rice acted as a spokesman for LaVey's Church of Satan, and was eventually offered to serve as its leader (which Rice declined). This book features LaVey's last interview, which was conducted by Rice in 1997. Blanche Barton, LaVey's official biographer, stated: "Because of Rice's intimate knowledge of Anton and his deep understanding of Satanic philosophy, it is one of the best interviews that LaVey ever gave." Also featured are unpublished interviews with LaVey detailing his meeting with Ed Gein and the man behind the unsolved Black Dahlia Murder, brand new essays by Rice, information on the Magic Circle and LaVey's beginnings, never-before-seen photographs, and an extensive conversation with LaVey's daughter Karla.
