Review: ....just as nature abhors a vacuum, so does the universe frown on price-gougers.

Summary: Not Bad
Review: Although much of the book has been taken from other works (as noted by others) it's an easy read and a decent book on the Faery Faith. I would say that Stepanich has just modernised it a bit for those who are interested in the path.

Summary: Oh my... another flake......
Review: Don't even waste your money on this book or its companion volume. Poorly researched, more fantasy fiction than Craft, and it can lead a true seeker of the Ancient Arts on a wild goose chase for the Goddess and the Ancient Ones. The lore is at best grade school level, and it is written for the lowest common denominator of buyer.... do you really want to sink that low. You would do much better to save your money and buy a reputable book on the Craft and the Wiccan faith.

Summary: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
Review: Don't waste your money on this incredible waste of paper, filled with regurgitated and garbled bits and pieces of older, more reputable works on Faery, Druidry and Wicca. In addition, it's an excruciating task to actually READ this book - wading through all the spelling, grammatical and word usage errors. Was the Publisher's editorial staff all on strike or something when this book was being processed? Save Money, Save Trees, Don't Bother!

Summary: Fiction and Fantasy
Review: Don't waste your money. Nothing but fabrications,
innaccuracy, fantasy, and bogus claims. If you want to know about real Celtic and Druid religion, visit your library and find a book written by someone who knows what
they are talking about.

Summary: An absolute must for all interested in Faery Magick!
Review: Faery Wicca I and II are an absolute must for those interested in practicing Faery Magick. It covers everything from Faery Lore and Gaelic History to modern magical practices.

Summary: More old Blarney
Review: Faery Wicca is an American invention, not a genuine Irish tradition. It is cobbled together from various sources, or at least, as it is presented here. Mythology is presented as history, which not even an Irishman like myself would claim. The author claims that until the Middle Ages only the Irish had faries- the rest of the world invented them in envy! This is plainly rubbish, as anyone who has done undertaken a superficial amount of research into fairydom will realise. Witches and shamans of all traditions work with the indigenous spirits of their own lands. She also claims the fairy realms include the Christian heaven and god and 'the galactic brotherhood' including aliens. She doesn't know Irish from Welsh, not even a Gaelic language, and the names of the three realms of existence are given in Welsh, as are some of the gods. Incidentally Wicca is an anglo-saxon word and was never Irish. The festivals and tools are those of Gardnerian wicca, invented by Gardner based on ritual magic. It astounds me that anyone could be fooled by this rubbish.

Summary: Not a bad book but alot of stuff missing
Review: First of this has some good infomation of faery wicca but really does not talk about the gods nor fay in much detail this book seems to me more of a celtic wicca book than faery and idea of her high than thou attuide and only way to be a elder aka (3 degree) is to be trained by her or ohlamh which is in ireland really nice if ya have lost of cash ya do not need this tradtion was made in 1973 . first off she was supposed to write 3 book which she did not so this series is not complete then books went out of print and basic i think that this book could have been done much better And anyone who wishes to practice the fay tradtions which faeries are found around the world in all culture say but i say check out Amber Wolfe Elemental Power
which seem to be only book on faerie craft that is out. Still was a good try but this bias of require beign trained is bs
i am myself was brought into the craft tradtionaly and went eclectic but not worth the cash i get it used for legends in book one and book 2 get a good book on shapeshifting My point i was disapointed with this book and hope books that are written better will come outgood luck Blessed Be;

Summary: The Living Light of Faery Revealed
Review: I agree with the person who wrote in saying that people are just giving this book negative reviews because they are upset that Olmah Kisma is revealing a true ancient system in a new way. No more are these things secret and for the elect few, now anyone can benefit from the living light of Feary. I reccomend buing both her books and her tarot deck along with them, together they form a valueable learning tool for the neophyte. Also, I agree with the last author, If you are into scott Cunningham, STAY AWAY this is not for you. His works are nothing but a complete mess. If you want to practice fantasy then go with cunningham, if you want reality then seek out olmah Kisma's teachings.

Summary: Do you walk in the love of the Faery?
Review: I am amazed as I read the reviews for this book. Happening to own this book I am astounded by some of the claims being made. One is that the use of other authors quotes is not credited. That is not true! Look you will see them at the end of the chapters and at the end of the book. Secondly, that this is not real Irish Faery Faith. Now coming from modern Americans this is a laugher. How do they know? Let me tell you what I found in these books! I found an author who has brought forth the best of what the Pagan/Wiccan religions have to offer! This being learning to walk one's pathway in love and oneness with the God and Goddess and all of creation! This book teaches one how to open up to this! Can those who criticize claim the same? I pity them, for they are not walking this pathway when they put falsehoods in their reviews and make false claims they can not stand behind. This is a book that projects the real thrust of the Pagan/Wiccan religions. Not the "Pastische" put forth in some "reviews" posted by those claiming to know what real Pagan/Wiccan religions are about! Their actions and words speak volumes and so do Kisma Stepanich's! THis is a must have for any real professing Wiccan/Pagan!!! Buy it and open up to the wonderful energy offered by the Faery! Critics can claim all they want, but they can't take away the experiences you will have by using this book! Buy it! It is a must have!
