The Wicca Bible
This book is in the exact format as the other spiritual bibles, crystal bible, spells bible etc.

As such this is in the very easy to use format brilliant for when you need to refer back to specific sections. Yes, this is another Wicca 101 book but, this is more than that it takes you from the very beginnings as you have discovered your path through to the more complex aspects of the 'craft'.

The correspondences are very easily accesible and everything is explained in such brilliant detail and so easy to understand that said, I think even the more experienced Wiccans will gain something from this book too.

A really brilliant book and if you don't already have The Spells Bible I would highly recommend it as it is the perfect accompaniment to The Wicca Bible.

Excellent and lavishly illustrated guide to WICCA
This is an excellent introduction to the subject, and as it manages to bridge the gap between guide and reference work has enduring value.

Recently learning that paganism is the worlds fastest growing religion I had to find out more, and this lavishly illustrated book provided most of what I wanted. The text is written in the manner of a reference work, and therefore I found the excellent "Wicca" by Scott Cunningham with its approach of the friendly teacher a great companion volume.

This is an indispensable book for anyone coming to WICCA for the first time.

Blessed Be this Book
This book is an excellant book about wicca which covers pretty much everything ranging from differant types to the Kabbalah. It's also handy and easy to read. The author seems kind and friendly giving this book an extra plus. While this would not be good for advanced Wiccans it is an excellant introduction to the craft. The only problem that I can really see with it is a lack of information on the history of the religion.
