The Secret Life of a Satanist offers an intimate look at Anton Szandor LaVey, founder and High Priest of the Church of Satan. The biography explores LaVey's unique philosophy, which combines influences from figures like Jack London, Friedrich Nietzsche, and the Marquis de Sade. Rather than a mere rebellion, LaVey's creation of the Church reflected his profound disillusionment with humanity, presenting a modern perspective on Satanism.

The Secret Life of a Satanist steps behind the curtain with the founder and High Priest of the Church of Satan. What is contemporary Satanism, and why would one start a church dedicated to the Dark One? It wasn't a rebellion against an oppressive religious upbringing; it was Anton Szandor LaVey's disgust with most of humanity.

Drawing from Jack London, Friedrich Nietzsche, Marquis de Sade, and a host of other reprobates, LaVey formulated a philosophy that resonated with him. This is a fully revised and updated version of the 1990 biography.
