5.0 out of 5 stars Very competent book on runes, April 9, 2000

This review is from: The Elements of the Runes (Elements of Series) (Paperback)

This is one of the better modern books on runes. It's historically accurate and also covers the esoteric uses of runes quite well. I recommend it for beginners, and for those who have already gained a good knowledge of runes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Have, January 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Elements of the Runes (Elements of Series) (Paperback)

This is one of the first books about the runes I ever read. I am really pleased to see that it has been re-released, as it was out of print when I first read it. King has a wonderful sense of humour, and provides a strong basis for building upon, in addition to sparking interest in the faith of Asatru and the myths of the North. This is a definate must have for anyone starting on the runic journey.
