Here are some customer reviews of
Solitary Witch
: I found this book full on bite sized information. It isn't a book you read from cover to cover, but it is an organized reference tool. I was written for the reader who may be too busy to do any major reading, but it give enough info on so many subjects, plus website and other books are given through out so when you do get time, you can do a more through study of a particular subject.
This is the ultimate book on learning wicca. Ive been waiting for a book to put it all together and explain things in easy to follow format . A must for all from maiden to crone . A great book to own.
So I bought this book because I love Silver's other books. Wow! It is huge and full of information. In fact, it's one of those only book on wicca that you need. I agree that it is geared toward the already practicing wiccan but there is so much info that it is accessible to anyone who practices. Love it.
Has she stopped researching for these books? I have never returned a book in my life but this one went back to the store. Being Asatru I immediately opened up to the section on runes. That was a joke, they were completely messed up. She changed the names, swapped meanings for the runes, and even included the blank one. Runes are not something that one can debate on, they are what they are. The section of teenie bopper spells was memorable. Of course that kind of throws the three fold rule out the window. Or drives the witch performing them into a pickle, I would not want that backlash. This book was a waste of perfectly good paper.
I am a long-time reader of various Witchcraft books. I have read RavenWolf's previous books and enjoyed them though a lot of people refer to her a "fluffy." Her new book "Solitary Witch" is an unbelieveable resource! It is one of the most impressive, researched books I have seen in a long time! HIGHLY reccomended!
