"Between the Worlds" was a labor of love for me. I wrote it to share with others my own interpretation of the Tree of Life, and wove into it an intricate fabric of my own personal, Goddess-centered Qabalah. Unfortunately, Llewellyn Publications allowed this text to go out of print, and because they had no plans to republish it for years, I took the rights to the work back.

Daily, I receive dozens of emails from other wiccans asking when, or if, I will bring this book back into print. To date, I do not have a publisher for this volume.

...I would love to bring an expanded, revised edition of this work back into print. As many reviewers have noted, it is ground-breaking,and is perhaps the first new interpretation of this ancient science since the days of Isaac Luria.

Blessings to all:
B Stuart Myers.

There are authors that write, and then there are authors that practice what they write; Stuart Myers, however, not only writes and practices but also delivers in this volume. Using a concept central to all Wiccan belief systems, the creation of sacred space, he takes us on a journey into realms normally seen by only the greatest mystics, and shows his readers how to bring that magick back into their everyday lives.

While not an easy, light read, be assured of one thing: practicing magick "Between the Worlds" will change your life forever!

I got this book when I was in UK many years ago. Since then, I have been practising all the exercises stated in the book. It has given me the conviction to continue practising Witchcraft alone. Every exercise I do WORKS! I am glad that I bought this book when I first saw it in a bookstore in London! I strongly recommend anyone keen in Witchcraft to start sourcing for it. Would there be a sequel to "Between the Worlds"?

Stuart Myers was one of my first teachers when I began my study of Wicca. His insights and in depth study of the Qabalah lend an excellent interpretation of practicing Wicca. I recently recommended this book to a friend who was seeking to understand Qabalah theory. The only books available were huge tomes on Qabalah. I led her to Stuart's book. After reading Between the Worlds, the reader will not only have a good understanding of Qabalah but a good understanding of Wicca and how the two work together. I anxiously await Stuart's further writings and wish my once teacher the best of all that can be found "Between the Worlds".

When I first read this book, I was sceptical; there are so many volumes about Qabalah, about Witchcraft -- I figured everything that could be written had been written. This book, however, is different. Based on solid Qabalistic and Wiccan principles, it gives a new twist to an ancient practice. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in BOTH Witchcraft and Qabalah!

I have only one question: is this author still writing, and does he have any more books planned on these subjects? It was FANTASTIC!

I will keep this review brief and to the point. This book is fabulous. The magick in it works. As an exercise in expansion of a Witch's conciousness, this text is unparalleled. I don't care what you have to do to obtain this book -- you must get it.

It is a shame that this book had to go out of print. In many ways, this book picks up where Ellen Cannon Reeds "Witch's Kabbalah" leaves off. The Tree of Life is given a Goddess centered spin that makes perfect sense if you think about it. The discussion of the four worlds is tied together with the Middle Pillar exercise, whuch is the best way to illustrate the concept. Best of all, this book contains practices which will lead up to actual Pathworkings. The book is difficult (probably the reason for its low sales) but worth pursuing if you want to tie your Craft to the Kabbalah. Look around; if you really need the book, it will find you.
