It depends on what you're looking for in a book... is there something in one of Penczak's books that you're interested in looking into? Well, I don't remember off the top of my head. I remember in his acsension magick book (which I could get for 6, and Bucklands book for 7 at half price books) He had a couple things that seemed interesting. It was something along the lines of a Triple Flame Meditation, *** "Visiting with the Masters", Visiting the Realm of the Fey, Ray Evocation and Twelve-Ray Alignment, Merkaba meditation+Extended Merkaba Exercises, a Shadow Rebirth Ritual, and something about the Starry Ones. (P.S. From the point of *** on, I'd looked up the table of contents and found what had sparked my interest).

I wish I could help you bud. D: Have you reread any of your books lately to see who they recommend, or used research from, in the biblio?
Nope, I've been so scrambled lately that I haven't really had a chance to. Though I probably should.

Meh, he's not my favorite but he's a great deal more informative than a few writers buzzing around. I forgot whom the author was, but at our library there is a book on "White wicca" that is so trashy and insulting. We're talking...these practitioners probably have yet to lift a wand because in some way shape or form it will affect someone negatively and they'll go to hell for it (theres your first clue to a bad Wiccan book...).
Yea, that's pretty bad. Well the thing is, the person who helped me start on my darker path, started by having me read "Out of the Shadows" by John J. Coughlin, suggested Konstantinos for lighter reading. Coughlin was an excellent read, and Konstantinos (though taken with a grain of salt) is also a very good light read. Both are very easily favorites. However, since my path is a little more shadowy and darker, it's harder for me to easily read something that's very cheery and not to sound like a stereotypical asshat, but lightsided. If anything I'm more balanced between the two with a favor to darker and nocturnal practices.
