Anyone come across the above book by David Rankin & Sorita D'Este? It's comprehensive but can't make my mind up about the content.

i have a copy... swagged one for review.
it isnt that to be honest, its well referenced and covers all the ones we can be fairly sure about. it has been a while since i looked through it but from what i recall its one of the better books of its type outside of a purely academic resources.

I thought old villa d'este was a hopeless daftie, personally.

Who knows?! Why not read 'Gods with Thunderbolts' instead?!

sorita deteste. yes she is a vile harridan. her other half (dave rankin) is a decent chap who knows his stuff. it isnt too bad - hell if needs be i can post you my copy if you want to borrow it but not fork out - though i would also suggest Gods with Thunderbolts too

*gasp* *aaakkk!* never. no. not on your life. i am in a coven in london, nothing to do with them... though they kept claiming my HP and HPS arent real Wiccans etc etc.. lots of beef, lots of them cursing the coven... lots of it backfiring. all good fun and all died down.

I'm having a minor breakdown here. Bitchraft has always been the Way of the Witch but we seem to've reached an apogee of lunacy. And yet more rotten hippies have destroyed my holiday plans.
Please write extensively on how the weekend went - I need some solidity in the midst of all this nonsense!
