About the author
Thea Prothero writes short introductory guides for Moon Books' Pagan Portals series, aimed at solitary practitioners of pagan and related spiritual paths. Pagan Portals - Heathenry for the Solitary Practitioner sets out foundational material for readers approaching Heathenry without a group, covering key historical texts, the gods, runes, and ritual practice needed to begin. Pagan Portals - A Guide to Pilgrimage takes a different but related subject, examining pilgrimage as a form of sacred journeying and considering how the practice translates into contemporary, busy lives. Both books follow the compact, practical format of the Pagan Portals series: short, focused volumes meant as accessible entry points rather than comprehensive reference works. They suit readers new to these specific practices who want grounded starting guidance rather than an academic study of paganism or pilgrimage traditions generally.
