Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft (Llewellyn's Practical Magick) |
Rating: 3 (out of 5)
Summary: A classic however...
Comments: Not to much to my taste. None the less, it has a lot of basic information. I would rip out the chapter on demons before giving it to a new witch or impressionable one. I find the chapter on calling up demons disturbing and dangerous. The rest of the book is filled with important information. Buckland is just not my cup of tea. I have his candle magic book and I do adapt some of his rituals. Over all, I would not endorse this except to someone with some time on the path and a great dose of common sense and well grounded. |

Summary: endorseing Buckland's Big Blue
Comments: This book is not as complete as the title states, however the new expanded edition is much better than the original. Even though this may not be the1and only book you will ever need, it is an essential read, and will compliment any Wiccan or Pagan library. |

Summary: Gardnerian Buckland Book
Comments: While I certainly respect Buckland for all he has done for Wicca in the States, this book is definately Gardnerian in thrust, not surprisingly and I felt it was dated, too. The modern Pagan has moved away from some of Buckland's ideas however of you ar4e looking for great general knowledge, this book is handy on the shelf, just not as useful as Ann Maura's books, I felt. |

Summary: great for the beginner
Comments: This was1of my 1st books on witchcraft and I thought it was great when i got it home from the store and started to read it and do the questions at the end of each chapter. Now, alalmost all a decade later that I look back I see it was a great stepping stone to get me started however has too many practices of Wicca to be useful. Some examples being how people do not need tools to practice magic(it is all in the mind), not to use circles however sheilds (since entities get pissed off at circles)and many other things. I am more evolved now in spirit from other sources than this book however, this book was on of the 1st to help me on my way and is a great reference book as well. |
