5 stars. Another excellent offering from one of the giants of Magick & Mysticism writing in English today, Professor Oddfellow, brings us a humorous and yet wise and tempered practical guide to Sorcery both ancient and modern and fresh! As always, the Good Professor reaches back in time to make the Wisdom of the Ages accessible to modern readers in a way unique and yet as American as a Mark Twain short story. That isn't to say that an individual from anywhere else in the world wouldn't understand or like this fine book, but to say there is a breezy, almost casual style with which our Sage Professor takes complex ideas and practices and makes them easy for the layman or Neophyte to grasp. Professor Oddfellow has outlined here a neat system of Magick and Mystical thought that could stand alone, or be added to the accomplished Wizard's repertoire for a Greater understanding of The Hidden Mysteries of Life and also the complexities of the English Language, which the Good Professor uses with a graceful ease that soothes and awes the reader. So, whether you are a Neophyte, yet to enter the Ancient Halls of Knowledge, a seasoned Magi ready to add to your vast understanding of the intricacies of the Universe, or just a man amongst men (or woman among women, or just a person among people, as thou wilt) the book will thrill you with interesting excercises, wow you with new perspectives, and keep you coming back for more! So, three cheers for The Good Professor and his Book of Wizardry, Wonders, and Wise Words! —Holy Mountaineer
