This novel is a testament to the human spirit and to love rising from the ashes of war. But most of all, this novel is one that will never be forgotten by a reader.'Jodi Picoult 'In her remarkable new novel, Alice Hoffman holds a mirror to our ancient past as she explores the contemporary themes of sexual desire, women's solidarity in the face of strife, and the magic that's quietly present in our day-to-day living.Put The Dovekeepers at the pinnacle of Hoffman's extraordinary body of work. I was blown away.'Wally Lamb 'Alice Hoffman takes seemingly ordinary lives and lets us see and feel extraordinary things.'Amy Tan 'Miss Hoffman heals wounds with the gentle touch of an angel'Joseph Heller 'Oh, what a book this is! Hoffman's exploration of the world of good and evil, and the constant contest between them, is unflinching; and the humanity she brings to us - it is a glorious experience.'Elizabeth Strout

The Sacred Book of the Werewolf
The world's first Zen Buddhist paranormal romance?published to coincide with Halloween One of the most progressive writers at work today, Victor Pelevin's comic inventiveness has won him comparisons to Kafka, Calvino, and Gogol, and Time has described him as a ?psychedelic Nabokov for the cyberage.? In The Sacred Book of the Werewolf, a smash success in Russia and Pelevin's first novel in six years, paranormal meets transcendental with a splash of satire as A Hu-Li, a two-thousand-year-old shape-shifting werefox from ancient China meets her match in Alexander, a Wagner-addicted werewolf who's the key figure in Russia's Big Oil. Both a supernatural love story and an outrageously funny send-up of modern Russia, this stunning and ingenious work of the imagination is the sharpest novel to date from Russia's most gifted literary malcontent.
Book of the Magi
This book traces the cult of the Magi through their lore: their history, art, legends, rituals, and devotions. It examines their political and social influences as well as their cultural and religious impact, showing them to be cast both as legitimisers of established power structures, and as figures who foment profoundly radical dissent. Cummins presents and weighs historical prayers to the Three Holy Kings for their mythic structures and ritual possibilities. In particular this book discusses historiolae found in these prayers - appeals to mythic actions or origins, often by imitation, fit for both devotional meditation and operative sorcery. Finally, this text collects, analyses and explores the spellcraft of the Three Wise-Men: examining the various magical operations calling on Caspar, Melchior and Balthazar found in grimoiric handbooks of magic and folk custom alike. These include workings for travelling, for conjuring spirits, for detection, for protection, for healing, and

The Book of Sacramental Magic
A complete course in Christian Ceremonial Magic which explores the sacramentals and sacraments of the Christian tradition from the perspective of occult philosophy This path-defining book presents a complete system of Christian ceremonial magic, based upon the sacramentals of the church and on the seven sacraments. Often understood as mere symbols or even simply “reminders,” their use confined to a select few, the sacraments are truly powerful magical rites which can be used by anybody. Beginning with a detailed discussion of magical philosophy and an esoteric interpretation of the Christian story, The Book of Sacramental Magic presents a complete course of ceremonial magic, suitable to occultists and ordinary believers alike. The system includes ceremonial magical practices such as banishing rituals and internal energy work, rituals for the invocation of the saints and angels, and guides to transforming traditional practices like novenas, the consecration of sacramentals and the
The Book of Ceremonial Magic
Noted occult historian A. E. Waite created this meticulously researched survey in order to unite and interpret the scattered and often-inaccessible details of magical traditions. Part I contains essential passages from prominent magical texts dating from the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth centuries; Part II analyzes these texts from a modern perspective. A century after its debut, Waite's work remains among the best sources of information on occult subjects related to the study of the supernatural. Although the author does not condone the practice of black magic, he defends occult practitioners and praises the disciplines of astrology and alchemy. Modern readers will find this book an extraordinarily complete tour of the history of magic, replete with details of casting spells, conjuring spirits, and other occult practices.
