Very nice but sometimes impractical
In an ideal world, it would be nice to live near a private beach, a big hill to watch the sunrise over and have a fully dedicated herbal collection.
However, this isn't reality to most of us, and indeed many of these spells would be impractical also.

There are some lovely ideas in here such as things to do on a secluded beach at sunset to celebrate festivals of the year, but unfortunately its unlikely we'd get the privacy to chant inside a big triangle drawn in the sand surrounded by candles.
There are also some nice ideas for crafted talismans to protect a baby or a new relationship, but of course the recipients would have to be of similar mind.

Also some of the herbs required for the spells aren't the type you simply have in your cupboard or can get hold of easily without having to travel to a dedicated esoteric or medicinal herbalist.

I also worry about the ethics of the binding and banishing spells chapter, although some are quite happy to restrict the actions of another who may be annoying or troublesome, many wiccans who practice magic will see it as a direct violation of the wiccan rede and others as a karmic dilemma.

The value of this book is totally dependant on what the reader wants, if you would like to read nice spells to maybe attempt one day if time and apparatus are abundant or if you can take ideas and form your own through this guidance then you may find a lot within its pages.
However it seems to be a new agey 'white witch'idealistic book rather than that of witchcraft.

hmmmm
This book is set out really well, different chapters for different sets of spells, love, wealth, banishing, binding etc. Also - information on starting out and explanations for everything. It would be wonderful but where on earth are you supposed to find some of those ingredients??? Its just not practical. Be prepared to have to go on a search. Where can I get a book that has decent spells in it that inculde ingredients I dont have to do a spell to get?

The ultimate spell bible
This book is ideal for anyone who is interested in the craft, whether you are just staring out or have been practicing for a number of years. With 150 spells for any situation, this book is worth its weight in gold. Each spell is accompanied with a brief history of the gods or goddesses concerned, and the background as to when the spell should be preformed. An execellent book from an execellent writer.
