5.0 out of 5 stars
One of very few practical voodoo books available, March 27, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Voodoo Sorcery Grimoire (Spiral-bound)
This is not the history of voodoo, an overview of the arts, metaphysics and/or anthropology of voodoo - this is lock-your-bedroom-door-and-take-the-phone-off-the-hook voodoo - the only "how to" book on this topic I've ever found that actually presents a complete & workable system you can use on your own. El Brujo is to be commended - this book is worth its weight in gold!

5.0 out of 5 stars
A modern Voodoo Grimoire destined to be a classic., November 18, 2002
This review is from: Voodoo Sorcery Grimoire (Spiral-bound)
This is not a book on the Voudun Religion, but is what the title suggests a Grimoire of Voodoo as practiced in the southern stats of America. And as most Grimoires it is intended for the Sorcerer as a guide for invoking and conjuring Spiritual Beings, as well as casting hexes. This is a book of Folk Magic, brought to the Americas by African Congo Slaves. The book is a bit expensive, but the wealth of information is priceless. The only thing is that allot of people who really do not have the proper knowledge of working Voodoo or brujeria, can really harm themselves or others. In the Voodoo Grimoire the reader learns how to work the candles. Learns how to conjure the dead as done in Southern Voodoo. Learns a form a bone casting Voodoo divination, call upon Papa Legba as well as other Lwas, and Spirit Families for aid. Learn how to build an Ancestral Altar, and learn how to create a Hoodoo box. All in all it is a Grimoire and can be dangerous for the person who uses it with no proper training, lack of respect, or ignorance.

genius, June 25, 2000

This review is from: Voodoo Sorcery Grimoire (Spiral-bound)
Brujo Negro outdoes himself in this in depth and informative work. he concisely and accurately leads the reader towards an honest understanding of not just voodoo but many aspects of the "occult" world. furthermore he does so without any of the drama and stereotyping that accompanies many books on the subject. it is not written in a manner in which to intimidate readers with his magical prowess, but rather to enlighten people with a passion as strong as his, while saving years of time and huge amounts of money on books that are closer to stephen king rather than actual occult sciences. to put it simply brujo negro is a genius.......like stevie wonder.
