The newest version of the main book on keto and epilepsy is by dr Eric kossoff of John Hopkins. They recently released a 6th edition that expands from the strict keto in prior editions with what they call the “modified Atkins diet” or “modified Atkins diet for epilepsy.” It’s also a low carb diet but less fat based than normal keto, and is a little more flexible.
Here’s a link to info on the book...

I tried a few different versions of the Modified Atkins Diet (70% fat). Some partially worked, some didn't change anything for me. There isn't always a success. This book has statistics and the different protocols (there is more than 1 type of modified Atkins for epilepsy) for modified Atkins as well as true ketogenic. https://www.amazon.com/Ketogenic-Modified-Atkins-Diets-Treatments/dp/1936303949/ref=dp_ob_title_bk
The type of keto for epilepsy isn't the type advertised on r/keto wiki.

This website is run by lead researchers in ketogenic diet field: https://www.ketonutrition.org/practical-guides-to-the-ketogenic-diet notably Dom D'Agostino.
Paleomedicina has something called the paleolithic ketogenic diet that can be used for epilepsy but the protocol is more strict (3:1 fat: protein ratio). It costs 30 Euros for the protocol.
I'm going to try paleomedicina's protocol if this new medicine I'm on doesn't work.
Good luck
Edit: Advice: Read and learn as much as possible if you truly want to try to fix epilepsy with nutrition.
