On a lighter note, it appears that Llewellyn has finally decided to get rid of some of the ridiculous cover art. I just saw this on Amazon.
Actually I think it makes it look more like a Harry Potter novel or something.
It looks like A Witch's Bible now, kind of. Although that's not the book it reminded me of first, but I can't remember what the name was; it might just have been a blue-ish version of Farrar's book.

We have to think of the time and context that the books were written in. Most of her books were written before the anti-fluff countermovement appeared. Some (not all) of her factual errors can be attributed to this.
We have a counter movement?

Kinda worrisome.

I would have thought having to put up with fluffies at all would count as 'cruel and unusual punishment'!

Riding the coincidence highway, I actually just heard the reason explained yesterday.

Furbies assimilate things that they hear and spit them back in random order, much like fluff bunnies. The fear is that a Furby will record sensitive government information and then spew it out in a strategically poor time/place. Much like a fluff bunny that reads an SRW book and then spews random phrases from it like they're gospel.

Damn, furbies and fluffies really ARE fitting punishments for each other, more than I thought.

The image of a little creepy furby doll spilling government secrets causes no end to my amusement, though.

~chuckles~ To Light A Sacred Flame should be a handbook for Arson.


And sacrifice of sheep, most likely. xd

And To Stir A Magic Cauldron is a meth-cooking guide, ja?

Alright . . . the only thing I'm going to say about Silver RavenFluffBunny is that her books are a good sorce of my daily comedy. I read . . . everything, So far be me to deny myself the . . . "intellectual Bliss"? that comes with reading her "words of wisdom"? I will admit, that while I don't like her (accept for comedic value of my own sick twisted sadistictorial fashion) Amongst the angsty, PMS, sexually frustrated Radical Femininst Ranting spread thickly throughout her books . . . there are pretty decent basic fundamentals hiddin within her books. All I have to say is that if your willing and able to put up and search through all the utter crap piece by gritty piece . . . then more power to ya!

I have respect for all authors, I'm a book whore. But she tests the line . . . and I beleive Llewellyn is partially to blame by publishing such distasteful works with a stern review. But then again, after browsing their entire selection as a whole; I find that a good portion of their books are . . . "less then creditable" it would seem as though they'll publish anyone these days that comes through their doors with a title that cries. "UberWiccaFluffBunny-MoneyMoneyMoney!" or "I'm an agnsty goth on a power trip who hates my parents" ::Shakes head:: it's sad to see the kind of deragatory aspect-religious/political society we are turning out to be.

On an ending note, I do hope that this "Wicca/Pagan" craze ends soon. Not the religion; but the fact that it's become a "popular fad" in the public eye. I just hope the fluffs move onto something else soon . . . their starting to make my eye twitch.

Just throwin in my two cents
