Being a magician is not only about sticking to your Golden Dawn work.  In fact once you reach a certain point, the Golden Dawn becomes only an introduction to what will be your central magical practice for the rest of your life.  I include here a list of books which I have found invaluable, but are not directly related to the Golden Dawn.
