I have been having some intense dreams too, featuring lots of violence. Last night starred a werewolf. An angry one. Also a demon made of strips of black rubber and a head like a gas mask who could start fires on people. Oh what fun. When I had that dream where I ran into you at the movie theatre, you were a tall person with reddish curly hair, but it was not long. You were wearing a ivory cotton shirt, untucked, with multicolored sort of geometric designs sprinkled around it, and jeans or black pants. I could not tell if you were male or female in the dream. I too dream as both and sometimes multiple characters in a dream. Me, I'm medium height, plump, long dark hair, beard, glasses, dark skin. I always wear a vest. And suspenders. Yes, I am a weirdo.<br /><br />I haven't read Tyson's Necronomicon, but I'd recommend The Necronomicon Files by Dan Harms & John Wisdom Gonce III. Pretty fun, even if Gonce does say some silly stuff, like the Abramelin operation is evil and will drive you mad.Harold Rothhttp://herbalwitchcraft.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208084550257016582.post-6484106083199978382010-10-05T03:30:32.854-05:002010-10-05T03:30:32.854-05:00@ Faust/V.V.F. - After giving it the first read-th...@ Faust/V.V.F. - After giving it the first read-through I was pretty much floored. I finally found a book that goes "INFORMATION. CONCLUSIONS ARE UP TO YOU!"<br /><br />@Michelle - Familiar spirits is looking interesting so far, Tyson's work sits well on the palate, even if it gets a little high-falutin' for me sometimes. The Prayer Beads book was incredibly brief, and did not have as much meat as I expected.<br /><br />I may do an entry full of "Mini Reviews" - One paragraph or two. That way I can't dwell on what I don't like. :PScyllahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03822031765851992717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208084550257016582.post-32897293555883067552010-10-04T19:48:59.595-05:002010-10-04T19:48:59.595-05:00Nigel's books are worth it just for the illust...Nigel's books are worth it just for the illustrations.

Familiar Spirits and Pagan Prayer Beads sounds interesting too. I would request a review of Hedge Rider by de Vries, but I already bought it (just got it in the mail today!), so I don't really need it now ;)Michellehttp://www.wicked-whimsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208084550257016582.post-83333280531559309902010-10-04T17:46:04.478-05:002010-10-04T17:46:04.478-05:00Call of the Horned Piper is to witchcraft what Nig...<i>Call of the Horned Piper</i> is to witchcraft what <i>Nightside of Eden</i> is to... Uh... Uh... Hell. Lost that analogy.<br /><br />I insist that Jackson is the witches' version of Kenneth Grant, with less homophobia and more madness. Love that goddamn book.<br /><br />ALSO: HOW DARE YOU ALLOW ME TO MAKE MISTAKES! YOU EVIL WITCH! Hee.Jack Fausthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13693993943756621762noreply@blogger.com
