Took a chance on this and glad I did. Every rereading turns up something I missed. The font runs small in the appendices. Still worth having on the shelf.
This exceeded my expectations. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. Every rereading turns up something I missed. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Happy enough with the purchase.
Was skeptical at first. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. Would buy from this store again.
I keep coming back to this one. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Definitely recommend.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
Perfect companion for my morning study sessions. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. It assumes more background than a beginner might have. Happy enough with the purchase.
Matthews successfully converts legendary tales into a grimoire for modern practitioners. The blend of Celtic spirituality and practical magick creates a robust framework for those wanting to invoke archetypal energies. However, it does not suit readers seeking historical accuracy or purely academic literary analysis of Arthurian lore. Those looking for quick fixes or non-structured spiritual advice may find the twelve-month discipline too rigid. It is best for those ready to commit to a deep, transformative journey involving visualization and ritual craft rather than casual reading.
