5.0 out of 5 stars
Great to get started!, 14 April 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: True Magick: A Beginner's Guide (Llewellyn's Practical Magick) (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to admit, I was skeptical about the whole concept of Magick... that is, until I picked up this book. Right from the start, Amber K. goes into the destinctions that make Wicca so special, and how witchcraft can be a healthy and fulfilling way of life. It kept me up for hours at the fascinating portrayals of the various neo-pagan religeons, legendary figures, and beliefs.
Since I bought it over six months ago, I must've read it half a dozen times. Amber K. is a wonderful writer, though I have to admit she's seems bit eccentric at times (read pages 125 to 127 and you'll know what I mean). Oh well, who wants to be normal? Certainly not myself, as it inspired me to dive head-long into my spirituality. While still a "wizard-in-training," so to speak, I could not have gotten to the frame of mind I currently possess, full of insight and wholeness, without "True Magick: A Beginner's Guide."
To anyone interested, fascinated, or maybe just curious about the Craft, I recommend this book highly as a primer for greater possibilities. Even for those of you who are somewhat closed-minded, this book should clear up much of the garbage you've been told about witchcraft. It really opened my eyes, and I hope it will open yours as well. Blessed be!

Well planned and a joy to read., 16 Feb 2000
This review is from: True Magick: A Beginner's Guide (Llewellyn's Practical Magick) (Mass Market Paperback)
This introductory guide to Wicca was well planned and a joy to read. It didn't bog me down with difficult theories or complex rituals. Amber K has mixed her extensive knowledge and wonderful sense of humour in this beginners guide to Wicca. Although it is written with group practice in mind, it is still an essential book to have, even if you are following the solitary path. An excellent buy.

Highly recommended for beginners and non-wiccans, 9 April 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: True Magick: A Beginner's Guide (Llewellyn's Practical Magick) (Mass Market Paperback)
Amber K. has written a wonderful book! I recommend this book to people who are beginning to explore their spirituality, and also to people who are coming "out of the broom closet" to show to their families! Amber has created a wonderful book that introduces magic, the Goddess, and the Craft lovingly. A treasure at twice the price!
