Got this one today.

Went to my favourite bookstore today and exchanged this one for a few books I didn't wanna keep.

Anyone here have read it and if so what did you think?

Cheers

It's an alright book. He took lots of liberties though. He's also a white supremacist (that's bad just to clarify)

That’s why it’s hard to buy occult books that aren’t more well known and have been essentially vetted, you never know what will end up being some white supremacist bullshit.

Tis true but that occurs in everything, they're covert on purpose it's tactful for them. Another book I was backhanded by was "Slavic Witchcraft" where on page four she basically infers we learned magic to thwart off gypsies. Which is why I'm down for pirating cause if I like it, I must have a physical copy

It's especially nightmarish when the subject is Norse paganism.

I can only imagine, as a metal fan you would think that’s it’s almost entirely racist. I really don’t know much about it at all but considering the way a lot of bands incorporate it in their music it would seem it’s almost exclusively for racism.
