Book Review: Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft, by Storm Faerywolf

Hello pornies. Sorry for the lack of activity these days, but I’ve been having a hard time because of income and mental health matters. Hopefully, things will improve soon. Let’s be positive! Today I come to talk about Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft, the newest book by StormFaerywolf. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review, so many thanks to the publisher!
I’ve been interested in Faery/Feri witchcraft for a while and I knew Storm’s work would be the best starting point. Turns out I was right! This could not be the best way to get introduced to the Faery Tradition of Witchcraft, I admit it is the first book on the subject I read, but it touches so many topics and aspects of it you cannot finish the book not having a clear idea of what it is about.
One could think in Faery as a charming path about nice creatures and magic, but Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft teaches otherwise. This is a branch that has a prominent dark side, which doesn’t necessarily mean negative or evil, only often misunderstood, and Storm Faerywolf uses enough tact when addressing both sides of the same coin.

The author has an unpretentious but confident voice that resonates in your head while you read him. He gets straight to the point and explains the topic in an easy, understandable way. He makes his opinion clear and doesn’t leave any space for misinterpretations.

However, this is not the common text book you would like to read and simply toss away, since it is more a workbook that presents several exercises and meditations. Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft also includes tips that could be of great use for those who are interested in the darker side of spirituality. I myself took several notes and quotes in order not to forget them.

In the end, you not only have a better and more complete image of what this path is about, but also a desire to discover, learn and read more about the topic. I now have Betwixt and Between in my to-read shelf. I’m sure Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft will be of use for many witches and give a more interesting insight in a misinterpreted side of magic.

Kinky regards, K!
