"Prayers abound! Every time of day, every season of the year, every major event in a person's life - theres a prayer in this book for it!
I consider myself fortunate to have found this little book.
I wholeheartedly recommend it for all of the pagan folk who read my review."
"This book was heavy on Wicca, Celtic gods, and vagueness. While I'm sure this would be an excellent resource for Wiccans and Wiccan-inspired people, for an animist, not really useful."
"I really didn't think I would like the book. I bought it a while back because it was written by Ceisiwr Serith, who has a website about the Proto-Indo-Europeans and then I realized that it was mostly Wiccan. I changed my mind by the end of the book.
The book starts out by explaining why pagans need to pray and make offerings and goes on to explain how to do that. He also explains how to use what you know about a god and goddess to help you write your own prayers.
The selection of prayers he offers are really good, and very much inspiring, so even if I didn't use the prayers themselves I would have ideas on prayers. He has gone out of his way to make the prayers appeal to everyone, on any path.
What impressed me the most was the list of references at the end of the book. The resources he used to write the book are all well known and respected in scholarly circles.
In my opinion this book is a much needed resource for pagans of all paths."
