Critics Review
“…Considering that Lecouteux writes in French and translated many of his sources from German, Latin and Greek, the language of these books is clean and effective English, if a little formal. The books are well-designed, well-illustrated, and very good reference texts, bridging High Magic ideas and folk magic, filling in a gap in my magical reference library.” * Samuel Wagar, FacingNorth.net *
