I saw his name for the first time in an out of print book in my library called "The Tourist Guide to Transylvania (author listed as count ignatius de ludes and states created by steward crowley isbn 0-861-178-076-0) on page 41 as an illustration which shows a blue horned demon eating the hand of a sorcerer who summoned him and than lost control of him. The book doesn't talk about him at all (book is listed as fiction incidenltly) so I googled his name and am going to put the links at the bottom.
Occording to wikipedia he is a devil or demon in the occult world and was first written about by Edward Kelly and later by Aleister Crowley .

".... the Devil of the Aethyr, that mighty devil Choronzon, crieth aloud, Zazas, Zazas, Nasatanada Zasas. I am the Master of Form, and from me all forms proceed. I am I. I have shut myself up from the spendthrifts, my gold is safe in my treasure-chamber, and I have made every living thing my concubine, and none shall touch them, save only I. And yet I am scorched, even while I shiver in the wind. He hateth me and tormenteth me. He would have stolen me from myself, but I shut myself up and mock at him, even while he plagueth me. From me come leprosy and pox and plague and cancer and cholera and the falling sickness. Ah! I will reach up to the knees of the Most High, and tear his phallus with my teeth, and I will bray his testicles in a mortar, and make poison thereof, to slay the sons of men."

this site qoutes Crowley's writings about this:
Both Choronzon and the Abyss are discussed in Crowley's Confessions (ch. 66): "The name of the Dweller in the Abyss is Choronzon, but he is not really an individual. The Abyss is empty of being; it is filled with all possible forms, each equally inane, each therefore evil in the only true sense of the wordthat is, meaningless but malignant, in so far as it craves to become real. These forms swirl senselessly into haphazard heaps like dust devils, and each such chance aggregation asserts itself to be an individual and shrieks, "I am I!" though aware all the time that its elements have no true bond; so that the slightest disturbance dissipates the delusion just as a horseman, meeting a dust devil, brings it in showers of sand to the earth."[2]Have yall ever read anything about him in books and if so what yall find?
