This book, like all of Silver RavenWolf's books, is full of great information for the wiccan way of life. Whether starting out, just curious, or adding knowledge to your library, her books are a wonderful addition. For someone who is not so much starting out as embracing what has always been there, I really enjoy this book. It is evident that she leans strongly towards a specific sect and is more religious in regards to her practice than I am.
Not everyone feels that Wicca is a religion, but more of a lifestyle. I fall into the latter. I ignore these references, but I can see how that can be difficult for some. I am in this for growing my knowledge and expanding my gifts.
A friend of mine has an older publication of this book, and I was excited to get the updated version. We did compare them and luckily she didn't really change much to alter the feel or purpose of the book. This book is great for starting out. Learning of different sects, divination, rituals and techniques. Not to forget the different paths ne may choose to follow and how they intertwine with your natural state of being. The different Goddesses & Gods different paths pay homage to. What the Holidays are, their history and how to celebrate. This is a great reference book for moon magick, herbal uses, candle correspondences, runes and spells. I ignore the religious undertone and take away the knowledge, which is what I would suggest to anyone to do who is starting out until you decide your path. I'm eclectic and take away what calls to me and push aside what doesn't.
Keep in mind that it is sometimes difficult for someone to write without being biased and putting their preferences as to sect and divination. Especially since that is how they live their daily lives. Take the knowledge and experience to enhance your personal life and skills. The rest is just advice that you can decide to follow or not.

Some good content . . . and bad author attitude
While the book has some good advice for beginners, the author has a tendency to come across as condescending when it comes to those who don’t walk her path. Not sure that I’ll be running to read other books by her. Also disappointed in the condition of the book (but admittedly too lazy to deal with returns). I bought it used, and it was advertised as “like new.” Fake news.
