Horns of Power, Book Review from "Cauldron Magazine"
“When it comes to images of divinity the Wiccan and neo-pagan scene is dominated by the Goddess. It is therefore refreshing to have a book that is devoted exclusively to the male divine principle as the Horned God in his animal forms as stag, bull, ram and goat. All too often in neo-pagan circles the God gets short shrift and in some pagan social environments he is even a taboo subject. Somebody I know was ejected from a Pagan Federation pub moot for daring to mention him. This is a collection of short pieces by twenty-three modern pagans writing about the myths, folklore and history of Old Hornie. There are also accounts drawn from personal experience of the God. The horned deities covered include Cernunnos, Pan, Herne, Puck (Robin Goodfellow), Gwyn ap Nudd, Amen-Ra etc. It would have been nice to though to have had a contribution from someone in the Traditional Craft discussing the Horned One from a different perspective, but hey you can’t have everything. As it is this anthology is a brave attempt by those good people at Avalonia to bring Himself back into neo-pagan conciousness and for that reason it can be applauded. The book also has some good illustrations and a stunning cover by Marc Potts. Recommended.”
