FAQ

The John Dee 1596 Necronomicon is a limited edition reproduction of the legendary grimoire, designed as a faithful 16th-century English translation attributed to the infamous occultist John Dee. Inspired by Lovecraftian mythos and early modern esoterica, it blends historical authenticity with cosmic horror, down to its faux-leather cover, deckled pages, and woodcut illustrations.

Yes, these are the last remaining copies of the Kickstarter Necronomicon.

Once the current stock is gone, this edition will never be reprinted. However, the book is still available as print-on-demand through Amazon. We plan to offer a simpler offset version in the future to replace or complement the POD version.

While the Necronomicon is a fictional creation by H. P. Lovecraft, this edition is designed as if it were real — a lost translation discovered in John Dee’s archives. It uses 16th-century English, woodcut-style illustrations, and period typography to immerse readers in the illusion of authenticity.

Yes, but due to the limited number of available books, each customer is limited to 5 copies.

We do not offer sales to retailers for this edition, but we will offer retail purchasing for the simpler offset edition planned for later this year. If you are a retailer interested in stocking the offset edition, please contact us.

If you already backed the Kickstarter and received your book, this version is the same (minus the eBook and add-ons). However, if you want additional copies or missed the campaign, this is your last chance to secure a copy.
