Copyright 1967, The Naked Ape by Desmond Morris is the classic explication of the seventh of the Nine Satanic Statements. Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Naked-Ape-Zoologis...238&sr=1-1#noop
Copyright 2005, Power, Sex, Suicide: Mitochondria and the Meaning of Life by Nick Lane, is, among many other things, a potent explication of how a causal chain of events unguided by sapience could produce the mechanics of biology, and this will help inocculate you against the arguments of intelligent design, fortifying and buttressing Atheism within you, so that the second and third of the Nine Satanic Statements can find safe haven within your mental apparatus, ultimately to become a part of your self-programming. But also, if nothing else, this book is one of the most intriguing and exciting works of popular biology ever written. Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Power-Sex-Suicide-...467&sr=1-1#noop

Liber Belial and Processus Satanae. Both are of interest, and quite obscure.

Google Bartolus de Saxoferrato Processus Satanae. It appears to be available in pdf.
This might be of interest to Redbeard fans:

I tend to agree with Fist here.
I am not sure if he would agree with this post though.
Fists original list of books (seems to me) to be philosophical in nature and they are focused on revealing the essential truth of the individual, the real world in which he or she dwells and the real relationships which exist between individuals in that world.
The key to this list seems to be - ground yourself in gritty reality first, and then afterwards, go on and study other works.
The basis or core is set first, and than as result, you have a secure position from which to critically assess additional works.
I identified myself as a Satanist years ago, by reading a number of the works on Fist’s list and regarding them as complete common sense.
I studied the works of Dr. LaVey, Nietzsche, Redbeard and Machiavelli in particular and found that those works made an enormous amount of sense to me.
I like other types of good books, including history and some occult works, but in my opinion those works must come second to the key ones, which Fist has identified.
Other good and relevant works elaborate and enlarge and unpack to some extent, Fist’s list establishes, in my opinion.

Very true.. We must "first" find which is absolute to the Self. Once this is established we can then deduce these Works and narrow them down to refine the Self. Once Refinement begins it triggers rare moments of clarity. These moments open door to our potential. If we are wise, we remanifest.
