This is how I see it. There are a fair number of older books which are fluffy to, however 50 plus years ago you did not go out and publish an occult book unless you really, really cared for the subject. It was not that much money in it and the chances of ridicule was enormous. Today the occult is extremely popular, any book about it is sure to sell. There are still published amazing, deep books, like Modern Magick by Don Kreig, however there are also allot of flush published. It is not that there are no deep books published, but the noise to signal ratio have gone up.
But again the more modern, light stuff can be great to. I use several books that are considered rather fluffy and I enjoy them and they enhance my practice. I think one need a little of both at times. I also certainly agree that if one is an occultist then on can never read to much.
