Constraints: Further Readings

This post marks the end of the section about some constraints upon the Gift of Set. As such, I would like to share further reading suggestions for those interested. As with all things Setian, these are suggestions, not prescriptions. You are free to pursue or ignore them as you see them resonate with your Work. For now, I will simply be listing titles. When this series is complete and collected, expect a more expanded discussion of the titles in a manner akin to the Temple’s Reading List.
