Product Reviews: Wicca for Beginners: Fundamentals of Philosophy & Practice (For Beginners (Llewellyn's)) |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Wicca for Beginners by Thea Sabin was great. Comments: This book offered me exactly what I have been looking for with regards to learning about Wicca. It was well written, easy and fun to read and informative. I hope she writes more. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Excellent Book and Highly endorseed Comments: For those of you who feel that Cunningham's book on Wicca were a bit, shall we say too "flowery" for you, then you will be pleased to discover that this book eschews using anything of the sort.
I think that this would be a worthwhile book for anyone looking to follow the path of Wicca, or for those priests or priestesses looking for a great introductory book for students.
Two thumbs way up for Thea Sabin!!

Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Better than Cunningham Comments: Nothing personal against Scott Cunningham; I am just not a big fan of his writing style--I got through3of his books in just under20 minutes; there was nothing to hold my attention or call for deeper reading. I liked this1mch better--well enough, in fact, to loan it to friends. The writing is clear, concise, and informative; this is the best beginners' book I have purchased up on the Craft thus far. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: easy read Comments: I was at 1st skeptical about this book, only because nobody that I knew ever heard of it. however, this1is, in my opinion, the best book on beginners of wicca out there. Its an easy read, understandable and personal. Tea has great exercises and after reading it, ething started making sense to me. Highly endorseed. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Answers and then some... Comments: As a new Wiccan with my only pagan friend hundreds of miles away, I was searching for something to help answer many questions I had. Was I on the right path? Did I honestly understand where I was going?
Something made me click the link to this book and I am glad I did. I purchased the book based on the previous great reviews, and it paid off for me.
Thea Sabin starts the book with a wonderful introduction into the history of Wicca. Bits of humor are littered among the facts, keeping it from being too dry (hey, history is boring to me). From there she goes into a full chapter on the principles and ethics...topped off with a great section of "What Wicca is NOT".
I appreciated the 1st2chapters and the scope of what they covered. She made sure to point out that eone's path is unique and that while you may not practice ething mentioned, it is important to know about it.
By the end of the second chapter many of my questions were answered I was eager to read on. The exercises she gives to help you along are fun and challenging, working your magical muscles in an effective way.
For me this book was a great start, and a wonderful accompaniment to the aide of friendship I have in my pagan friend so far away. |
