The Cyber Spellbook: Magick in the Virtual World

Sirona Knight. New Page Books, $13.99 (190pp) ISBN 978-1-56414-582-6

Mixing modern technology with witchcraft, Sirona Knight (A Witch Like Me) and Patricia Telesco (An Enchanted Life) offer Cyber Spellbook: Magick in the Virtual World. Although thousands of Wicca enthusiasts use the Web daily for research and to meet people, they may not realize their computer's witchcraft-related properties. For example, a keyboard can represent ""creative flow,"" with the ""delete"" key an instrument for banishing and the ""shift"" key helping one shift between the ordinary and magickal worlds. The authors explain ways to integrate technology (from cell phones to lawn mowers) with spells, making this a truly up-to-date Wicca resource. (June)
