Defences Against the Witche's Craft

This little book is published by Avalonia

I found this little volume an entertaining and interesting read. I lent my copy to a woman I'm working with who is certain she is under psychic attack, because It explains some points extremely well. If I don't get my copy back for any reason, I'll buy another copy, because I think the chapters on paranoia and on identifying the source and discovering links are very well worth reading.

On a more general note, I can't see a lot of Wiccans actually approving of the book, because it sort of accepts the traditional country/church view of vindictive or amoral 'witches'. The folksy, historical stuff is interesting and interestingly told but sort of goes with titles like "How to Turn your Ex-Boyfriend Into a Toad" that I saw on the shelves of my local Borders - mind you, Borders might like this one on their shelves too!

Some of the advice is very sound indeed and, I wish I read some of it a long time ago, because it includes insights it has taken me years to learn for myself.It is a read from which could learn a lot!

Get the book from Amazon or post free at the cover price direct from Avalonia:
