I love the idea around exploring our dark and shadow selves, and although this book seemed to be that, it was not. At least not in the general and practical sense. I think it might reach and speak to a very particular niche (people who have dealt with trauma and are struggling to get past it, as well as wiccans). Perhaps. Personally, I found it all much too dramatic and unnecessary.
The writing became extremely repetitive, to the extent that I started skipping pages, and ideas and examples simply weren't complete. The writing and punctuation was confusing at times, several times there were personal recounts that just left me wondering what and why, and even the rituals were largely the same thing over and over.
This is a theme we need to explore more, but this is not the book that will give us that exploration in a practically applicable way.
Having said that, I gave it 3 stars because there is value in it, and the first couple of pages were good enough to get the idea across.

The story was enjoyable, but the writing was not his best. I kept on waiting for the climax of the story, but it would build and build and then suddenly just dissapear without reaching it. Definately not as good as good as Snuff.
