I've ordered it from a local bookstore!

This book looks so cool. I am eager to read it.

This is a very interesting-looking book. Half of it is upside-down, but on purpose!

@aversatrix I hope you don't get that "sail away" song by Enya stuck in your head now.

@chichi666 I have not read it! I have seen the deck, though. Do you know the title?

I know it's hard to believe, but I've never read this book before.

This is a great reference volume for those who have been delving into the Greco-Egyptian Magical Papyri. The material is pretty much all Christian, but it is great to see the variety of spells and rituals that were being used by the Christians of that era. Particularly interesting are all the barbarous names and pagan deities mixed in with otherwise Christian material.

My one complaint is that none of the illustrations from the original Coptic papyri are included, so you don't get to see what the various amulets and images actually looked like.

Finally finished! The ending was amazing!
