This collection includes two books in one volume, Eight Sabbats for Witches and The Witches' Way and is the most comprehensive and revealing work on the principles, rituals and beliefs of modern witchcraft.
Not quite what I was expecting. honestly I'm not sure what I was expecting but it had some good information and it did reference some books that I haven't heard of before so I will be looking those up for further information. ( )
This isn't my favourite book on the topic of witchcraft, though I still keep it on my bookshelf as it can be handy reference for Sabbats and other pagan topics. Perhaps the book would be more suited to those who identify as Wicca and/or do coven work. ( )
Reasonable resource on rituals, spellwork, Sabbats, and related topics from well-known Alexandrian initiates. Incomplete, as these kinds of books tend to be, but useful. It's geared toward coven work, though solitary practitioners may find it useful too. Better than most comparable titles on the market, though admittedly that's not saying much. ( )
This is pretty much the most complete published work on Alexandrian Wicca around (or at least of which I am aware). Unfortunately, that doesn't make it good, considering the fact that the information is extremely incomplete, and the lore is extremely flawed. ( )

"I wish there were some way of reconciling formal education and natural knowing. Our inability to do this is a terrible waste of one of our most valuable resources. There is a fund of knowledge, a different kind of information, common to all people everywhere. It is embodied in folklore and superstition, in mythology and old wives' tales. It has been allowed to persist simply because it is seldom taken seriously and has never been seen to be a threat to organized science or religion. It is a threat, because inherent in the natural way of knowing is a sense of rightness that in this time of transition and indecision could serve us very well."
--Lyall Watson, Gifts of Unknown Things (Vol. 1)
"If we are to get out of the mess to which civilized ignorance has brought us, we must prepare ourselves, in some ways at least, for the return of paganism."
--Tom Graves, Needles of Stone (Vol. 1)
