Finally got around to ordering this. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Still worth having on the shelf.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. It reads better in small doses — a chapter at a time with notes. A few pages arrived with light corner wear, though nothing serious. Recommended with reservations.
Came across this title in a footnote and had to track it down. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading. It reads better in small doses — a chapter at a time with notes. It assumes more background than a beginner might have.
Perfect companion for my morning study sessions. The material is presented clearly and the structure makes it easy to revisit key passages. A text you study rather than simply read. Recommended with reservations.
Morgan successfully bridges the scholarly chasm with practical wisdom, offering a unique perspective on traditional witchcraft's legacy. However, this text is not suited for casual readers or those seeking simple, accessible guides to Wiccan practice. It demands engagement with complex historical analysis and esoteric concepts like core-shamanism. Readers expecting light, fluffy folklore or straightforward ritual instructions will likely find the content too dense and abstract. It is strictly for dedicated students willing to delve into the shadows of history to uncover the craft's true, visceral power.
