full of great information. An amazing look into the world of witchcraft with practical ideas on how to do things on your own.

Really thorough overview

After listening to this audiobook I'm really mad that I avoided her for so long. I met a lot of snobs really early on that turned me off her as being too "fluffy bunny" when she actually isn't. i realised while listening to this that the actual reason she is dismissed so soundly is because a lot of her work specifically targets teen girls. and if you've ever been a teen girl you know that pretty much everything for teen girls is derided to the point that even we as teen girls dont even want to identify as teen girls for fear of backlash for existing. the misogyny against women is started early and dismissing or refusing to take anything seriously that is geared to teen girls is a very serious layer of this misogyny, so if you've avoided any Silver books because "they're just fluff" let me assure you this book is not fluff at all.

there is a ton of info in here from spells, to history, to mythology, to astrology, to even herbology. each section is broken into parts and themes that make sense and everything ties back together. its a little dense for an audio book so I recommend having the physical book as well, especially for all the charts and diagrams.

the one issue I did take with this work is that it is very pro-cop, very pro-military and pro "war on crime" which I dont like due to the overt racist policies and violence against poc of this natuon that have been perpetrated by cops in the so called war on drugs and war on crime. the last part of the last chapter is blatantly this which left me on a bit of a sour note and like "ugh, did you have to white lady so hard in thos bit?". if shed just mentioned blessing your military and talking about her daughter that went into the army that would have been fine but she added the war on crime stuff and I was just totally turned off.

overall i would read another book by her, I dont think I could restrict myself to only these books but I like her style and I like that she centers teens because not many authors do.

Made for Teens

I'm very new to Wicca and Paganism, I'm also an adult. This book started off alright but it was very clearly geared towards teenagers. I felt the author wanted this book to reach teens and people my age but I felt myself getting very frustrated. A lot of examples are like "What if your parents won't let you go to the movies?" or "Make sure you ask your parents if you are allowed to have candles before you light them!" No thank you!

Written for teenagers and young adults

Are all of Silvers’s books written for teenagers and young adults now? The description should state so!

wow!I'm more than happy with this choice 🥰

I thought the readers voice fit the subject well It was easy for me to listen to while I'm busy doing whatever. so much good Info😍

loved it!

full of great information! I must for anyone seeking this path in this religion or just for studies.

good

I love this book even though the book it self is for reference listening to it gives you a good foundation on where to look and what to expect... I do own a physical copy of this book and I recommend that as well

Amazing

Very well written and informational novel. Wonderful presentation of information. Is a must have for any beginning Wiccan.

Phenomenal! Love Pam Ward's dictation as well!

I'm not a teenager by any means but this book contains so much information that relates to my life as a beginner into witchcraft & the wise & old ways of religion & beliefs with the spells & ceremonies. I lived it so much I actually bought a hard copy for myself as a reference/study guide.
Only downfall to audible version is the book refers to PDF Files that aren't provided.

Too much babble

Struggled to finish. Geared toward "teens" with curiosity. Almost as if she was looking for something to fill the pages.
