Hello Rose, Do you know any good Witchcraft books that a beginner can

start out with? I already have Scott Cunningham’s a guide for the solitary practitioner. I’ve

searched all over the internet for a good one but, have yet to find one. Please write me back

whenever you have the time. Kevin

Hello there my dear,
What are the best books concerning the Wiccan religion? Well, that is quite a subjective question

to say the least. This is partially because it is a matter of personal taste and partially because

what might be best for one person might not be best for another. For example, someone just starting

out in the practice might require a volume written to one level of comprehension, whereas for a

polished practitioner, the same book may seem a bit simple and repetitive given what they may

already know and thus be bringing to the table.
For the most part though, the people who are asking after what the best books are tend to be those

that are relatively new to the faith and thus are still looking to find their footing and who are

making sure that Wicca is a proper fit for them – both spiritually and intellectually.
So, for the most part I would recommend the books of Silver RavenWolf. She is published by

Llewellyn and her books are generally written in a very friendly, accessible manner that serves to

explain the various facets of the religion in very digestible terms and concepts.
This is not to say that her works are not well thought out or informative either… just that they

are written in such a way that most beginners can easily engage with the material.
I would very strongly suggest, “To Ride a Silver Broomstick” to anyone who is looking to find out

more about what it means to really be a witch….
