Wheat from the Chaff,
This review is from: Jack the Ripper's Black Magic Rituals (Hardcover)
This Ripper subject is a very unstable, divided, undecided subject,that of recent has become the ridicule of many a serious arguement.But what is cool about this whole thing is the Hitchcock Fans,and the Sherlock Fans get left behind.And may i say there are many books out there that will cater for those who have no real interest in who the Killer of Whitechapel in 1888 really was.But Ivor in his book shows that he clearly is a man on the right track,and i`m not sure that its anything to do with imagination. It`s about the evidence that is there. (You reading the right book mate?)Mr Edwards clearly states his reasons for having Donston as a serious suspect and these reasons past the tests of what is known of the Ripper. And you know what ? I think Ivor Edwards has done a fantastic job. The book is written well. The illustrations are great and anyone who passes this book by, MUST be related to P Cornwell. Roslyn Donston is a very likely suspect in the Ripper story, and if you want an accurate detailed log on the documents and findings from that period i suggest you put your hands in your pockets for those nuggets and get this excellent publication. "A keen Ripperologist`s must have book" Tee.

The real rituals of the murders.,
By
This review is from: Jack the Ripper's Black Magic Rituals (Hardcover)
The theory about occult ritual is much better then the masonic ritual theory.I will recommend this book for those who seek occult rituals.The book shows us step by step how the murders ware planned by using a map.And it all will finally come up with a occult symbol where all the victims had been killed in.The suspect in this book is Robert Donston,one who study black magic.If you want to know moore about Donston i recommend The True Face Of Jack The Ripper by Melvin Harris.

Jack the Ripper as the supernatural,
By Benjamin Akuda (Charleston, SC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jack the Ripper's Black Magic Rituals (Hardcover)
A good tale of whodunnit of the Ripper genre. Jack the Ripper becomes a shaman of the dark forces. Mr. Edwards has quite an imagination that lends itself to the bizarre. I was left wondering why Jack the Ripper did not transform himself into a bat to escape detection? Perhaps Bram Stoker was the Ripper and not Mr. Stephenson? Nevertheless "Black Magic Rituals" is entertaining in the conjectural notion of a serial killer turned warlock. I am sure veteran "ripperologists" will puncture enough water holes in the author's thesis to operate their own sluices perpetually. A "must have" for anyone on the trail of the Ripper.
