Critics Review
“It’s the only title to narrow the focus on Santeria to Obi, and provides specific divination instructions for casting and interpreting the oracle.”
“It’s the only title to narrow the focus on Santeria to Obi, and provides specific divination instructions for casting and interpreting the oracle.” * The Midwest Book Review, December 2001 *“For one wishing to learn about this particular system of divination, it is the best book on the subject I have seen. It is clearly written, easy to read, and the author does not talk down to the reader. It is easily affordable, and well worth the effort to obtain and read it.” * Mike Gleason, Witchgrove, March 2007 *
