I found this book, and can't find any information on it. I don't know what it covers, wether it's just a novel-style reader into what is known about the topic, or an informative book for someone interested in practacing this form of magick. I also don't know if it's a decent book or not, can anyone help? Or have a suggest another good Scottish Magick book?

Thanks!

Hmmm, interesting. You know what really gets me though? SURLY there was magick and even a form of Wicca after the picts. I can't understand why a book hasn't been written about simply Scottish Magick without the Pict stuff or just a few snipits about it. Surly Scottish magick would be influenced by them to say the least. Not saying Pict magick isn't interesting, but the few books out there on it are getting harsh reviews I noticed, even on the websites you linked me to. I would love to read a book like that because it would be facinating to learn how the Scot's used what was native to their land for magick. Certain plans and stones are only found in Scotland after all! And the hills, the beautiful landscape. I know there must be some form of magick that was strongly influence from a culture that at one time wore the kilt daily (blame the victorians! as my boyfriend says). Ah well, no worries! Learning a form of magick isn't what I am after, I just love learning about them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Thank you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Oh, and if there is a form of Scottish Wicca that is not Pictish, I would LOVE to know of the book that holds it.
