Books I Want!

I’ve been trying to be good and not spend money, watching while my boyfriend buys lots of games. Frustrating! Meanwhile lots of cool polytheist/pagan goodies have been coming out! List for my own reference, links to announcements/info, trying to decide which ones to get hard copies, which to just get in e-book format.
More stuff will be added/removed as I discover new goodies and buy stuff.
Norse/Germanic
- Visions of Vanaheim– $19.99 now (reg price $24.99) e-book is 15, so will get it in print.
- Asphodel Press Prayer books (which ones?) Most are $5 for e-book, $18 for print- hmmmm…
- Fire Jewel (Freyja)
- Honey Grain & Gold (Frey)
- Skalded Apples (Idunna & Bragi) Partly interested in the last just cuz there’s so little written about them.
Celtic
- Air n-Aithesc (Our message) Peer reviewed Celtic recon journal- 2nd issue out now! 5 for e-book, 20 for print
- Dance of Oak & Wren: Rites of Draiocht by Robert Barton (formerly of ADF- has written great articles E-book is 8, print is 12 (at discount)
- Where the Hawthorn Grows– an American Druid’s reflections by Morgan Daimler
- Ellen Evert Hopman’s 3 novels set in pre-Christian Ireland I think they are out of print now but you can order them from her site.
- Circle of Stones by Erynn Rowan Laurie– has been available for quite some time- now you can get audio for the Gaelic portions!
Misc. Polytheism/Pagan
- Divorcing a Real Witch– friend of mine, Diana Rajchel, need to buy from her! Hopefully I’ll never need it!
- When a Pagan Prays by Nimue Brown- great Druid writer!
- Dealing with Deities by Raven Kaldera- intro to polytheistic theology
- Heart of the Labyrinth by H. Jeremiah Lewis (Sannion) Bacchic Orphism, prolly not my thing, but anything Sannion writes is interesting. If nothing else, if I read it, I’ll finally understand what he’s talking about on his blog (I took a hiatus from reading for a while then I was like whaaat?)
- (Maybe) Whispers of Stone by Tess Dawson- originally published by O books, went out of print, her book on magic was picked up by Llewellyn- interested, but not $40 interested.
- Longing for Wisdom: the Message of the Maxims by Allyson Szabo
- Magickal Judaism by Jennifer Hunter out of print Jewitchery is such a fascinating blend
- (Maybe) Blacksmith Gods– since I’m interesting in so many smith related gods this might be interesting
Reference- Different Publishing websites
Biblioteca Alexandrina– publishing wing of Neos Alexandria, Greco-Roman-Egyptian recon org- lotsa interesting titles to choose from! They are starting to digitize them.
Nysa Press– Sannion’s other books

Fire Jewel is a really good book, I own a copy of it and it’s worth getting. I’m not just saying that because I’m friends with the author.

Yeah- I just need work out the lil’ minor snag that my debit card expired in August & I don’t know where the new one is! I’m bad with keeping up with mail, so it’s prolly around somewhere!
