Try www.tezcat.com/~josephb/lit/crowley/index.html - though I don't
think it's been updated all that recently. The site's author mentions a
title for the third AEgypt book, "Daemonomania" (hmm), and gives a
publication date of August - I assume that was meant to be this year, so
I'm not sure what the latest is.

Crowley delivered the manuscript to Bantam in August '98, I believe, which
indicates a publication date somewhere in early-mid '99.

_Deamonomania_ is the belief that everything in the world is inhabited by a
small spirit (daemon) which animates it and gives it is specific
properties. Or at least, that's what Crowley claims it means.
