It is absolutely terrible. It is vulgar, anti Christian with no redeeming qualities. My wife could not even finish it. I read the whole thing hoping that it would get better. It did not. I sure hope that it never makes the library.1 stars (Poorly written) - I found a number of inaccuracies in this book, causing me to wonder about the veracity of other information presented. I was at the Witch Camp mentioned in the book; the author not only had several facts wrong, she cited two different numbers for total attendance; each figure was incorrect, but I was amazed that an editor didn't catch the inconsistency of her inaccuracies. In her stretch to use "fresh" language, she sometimes completely ignored the meanings of words. While using "hair" terms, such as "braided" cleverly, the impact was dulled by redundancy. The book contains many loose ends. For instance, she has heard that witches are often red-headed and goes to witch camp to check on this - yet she never tells us how many - if any - red heads were there. On the other hand, she claims that there were a preponderance of witches named Lilith - personally, I know of only two by that name in attendance then. She claims that the Vikings were red headed. While this may be so, the more common assumption is that Vikings were blond; Eric the Red was so-called because of his unusual and therefore distinguishing coloring. Perhaps an editor could have salvaged this book; as it is, it's a carelessly written bit of nonsense.4 stars (Currently reading . . .) - Having a blast reading this book right now. As a red head I remember the taunts and I can identify with nearly everything so far. The only thing I am curious about is the sect of wicca that does this witch camp. Although I do not practice wicca I am extrememly well versed in it and those that follow the nature based faith do not run around chanting Set's name. Other than that odd bit in the book I am having a good time reading it and I have already reccomended it to my fellow red haired cousins. => This is the Hardcover version.
