I recommend reading Gary Lachman’s book: Aleister Crowley: Magick, Rock and Roll, and the Wickedest Man in the World.
He doesn’t dive deep into Crowley’s teachings but rather gives you a sobering overview of Crowley’s life and his influence on pop culture. He strips away a lot of the mystique and to be blunt, bullshit, that surrounds Crowley. There’s no hero worship involved as there is with so many other books about Crowley.
