The Modern Witch's Spellbook: Book II by Sarah Lyddon Morrison

sad fast-paced

Booooooooo. This is a travesty. I enjoyed the first book, despite its love-spell heavy beginning, I found its approach to craft (black and white) incredibly refreshing and interesting. I don't know what happened to this author in the years between publication, but this is an absolute embarrassment. It contains the practicality of the first, but while that book focused specifically on craft (the good, the bad, the gray) this is more of a reflection of the political turmoil of the times and bizarrely, Christianity. The first book does not source any specific spirit to credit for a successful spell, but god, does she hammer it into you here. If you want a very conservative, bizarrely Christian, functionally useless spellbook than this is the one. The first one is worth the read, this one is only good for the bin which is where I will be promptly sending it. Goodbye!
