Having read
both Liminal Rites and Her Sacred Fires last year, I started with Magic in the
Ancient World. I have to say, thus far
it’s been a pretty challenging read. I
had hoped to take each chapter, read it and write about it here. I thought it might be an easier way to be
sure I thoroughly understood the material.
After finishing chapter one and starting on chapter two of the book, all
I can say is WOW.
I put the
book down after chapter one and went back to Liminal Rites just to be sure that
I hadn’t forgotten too much. I even
popped open my Kindle app and started reading The
Temple of Hekate by Tara Sanchez, just to be sure it wasn’t my brain that
was having issues.
It wasn't my
brain. This first chapter of Magic in
the Ancient World was so full of information, I actually felt like I was coming
in at the middle of the book. It was challenging
just to get the sentences to stay formed as sentences in my head. At this point I’m debating skipping on to one
of the next books or maybe just drudging through to chapter to three to see how
it goes.
So by my update next week I hope to be done with Chapter
three of Magic in the Ancient World and be able to provide my thoughts on the
first three chapters. Hopefully it will
consist of more than just “Ummm, what did he say?”
