 Love it July 26, 2008

The book of wizardry, is a very fun and informative book, for young readers! I found it entertaining and fun to read, eventhou; I am seventeen. The Chapters in the book all end with an assignment. This assignments are creative and hands on, which I believe brings the book up from good to great. The books assignmens range from making a wand to building a wizard's oracle. This book is not fictional, the exercises the book presents really help the apprentice wizard, like the memory exercise , or the relaxation exercise. I am happy to have this wonderful guide in my collection of magickal books!

This book is not for the Wizard, it's not anything but a game! The whole book leads you to a game, and has nothing to do with real Wizardry! I don't like this book! It's a complete waste of your money!

I got this book for my grandson, 11, who is very interested in Harry Potter and magic in general. He loved it! It is written in language younger readers can understand and relate to. I recommend it.

"The Book of Wizardry" is a wonderfully creative guide for those of us in the world with a particular interest in magic. At first, Mr. Rumstuckle explains to us the basics of wizardry and how we could possibly use it in the future. Eventually, he does teach us different ways to use magic in our lives. Then, he teaches us how to make our own wand, our own cape, and all those other necessities of wizards, except for the pointed hat, which he describes as being only used by those who wish to show off. Next, he gets into horoscopes and sun signs and things like that, which I particularly enjoy. Yet, when he gets into REAL magic, he explains that it works from the inside out which was a bit disappointing, considering that he states that to make something happen physically, we have to visualize it mentally, basically saying that magic is just in the state of mind. This process DOES work but it's not really what one would expect from a wizardry guide. Even though there are those not-so-great aspects of the book, the splendid humor draws you into it a bit more, even though it's not really a page-turner that you can never put down. It's easy to stop reading at the end of the day and store it on your bookshelf without feeling hungry for more or the least bit guilty. I still would recommend this book to anyone who's fascinated by the ancient art of magic.

Cornelius Rumstuckle aka J. H. (Herbie) Brennan. co writer of the such gaming books as Sagas of the Demonspawn Aztec Quest, Egyptian Quest, Greek Quest, Roman Quest and Grailquest, amoungst others. So it is no supprise that his current book has such game book as part II, He has written some on occult topics such as An occult history of the world and Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World. But then is anyone realy supprised that such a book is coming from Llewellyn. He has three books currently in print with Llewellyn, they are Magick for Beginners: The Power to Change Your World, Magical I Ching, Time Travel: A New Perspective.
