A Solid Home Run for Alexandria, September 15, 2009
This review is from: Waters of Life: A Devotional Anthology for Isis and Serapis (Paperback)
This is a book that again is a capstone of its sort. This anthology takes smatterings that the best minds in the Hellenic and Kemetic communities have to offer and doesn't fail to deliver. The essays are crisp and well edited. The poetry is clear and formatted in a manner that is well paced... You want to read line by line because each line takes you deeper and deeper into a time that is not our time.
The short stories do the same, there is one short story in particular of a modern focus with 2 brothers that is clear and "to the point." The book backs up its talk with well cited references, crisp down to earth language and many alchemic references at varying points. To everyone that contributed to this marvel, you did your jobs splendidly. This is the kind of book that you will probably want to buy a 2nd copy for yourself. The reason for this is that you will be marking off a lot of the poems as evocations and the stories will take you back to a time of wonder and myth and harsh yet fascinating dualities. Again fascinating and well done.
