5.0 out of 5 stars A superb, informative book., 27 Nov 2000
By A Customer
Although this book is not an easy read, it is well worth the effort. It gave far more in-depth information than any other book I have read on Wicca. I would not recommend it for a complete beginner, but for someone wanting a more intellectual, comprehensive work, this is absolutely superb. In particular, the many links with Jungian psychology are fascinating.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect start to discovering Wicca, 4 April 2002
By Mrs. L. J. Roe "Wykey" (Weymouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This lays out the basics of Wicca for all with interest. It is simple; almost child-like in its presentation.

Though totally unsuitable for the initiated to expand their craft... For those with the spark of new interest, who maybe are not sure if Wicca is the right path for them, it is perfect. It is also suitable for someone just wanting to know the bare facts of Wicca.

It leads you through the basic ideas, deities, and tools and includes practical exercises for those who want a more hands on attitude to their discovery of this misunderstood religion.

Though bought for me as a "Quirky" birthday gift, I soon found this book led me on to a whole new way of life as a Wiccan. It is not the only text I needed to study, but it was my first, and as such has a special place in my heart.

Blessed be!

1.0 out of 5 stars For Coven Witch's only, 8 Sep 2005
By R. Sim "alchemistrose" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was very disappointed when this book arrived. Having read reviews of the book it sounded like the perfect grounding in Wicca. However it is only focused on the coven form of wicca. I thought that maybe some solitary practices or information would be included.

I would suggest that solitary wiccans do not buy this as it has no information for them at all.
