BOOK REVIEWS:

Beyond the Misty Vale is an interesting, frank, and well-written text that will dispel any misconception that Wicca involves Satanic worship or black magic. As Lady Diana, High Priestess of Misty Vale Coven explains, Satan is a Judeo-Christian concept, and has no place in the gentle Goddess-centered practice of Wicca. Readers might be surprised to learn that many of the traditional holidays of the Western world have their roots in Wicca. Beyond the Misty Vale is a must for any historical writer's reference shelf and a fascinating read for the rest of us.
Cynthia VanRooy, multi-published author in Contemporary Romance

Beyond the Misty Vale by Lady Diana is more than just "A Complete guide to Wiccan Religion, Philosophy, and practice." This well-written, informative book has something for believers, nonbelievers, researchers, the curious, and those who just want a great nonfiction read!
     Beyond is a book from the heart -- a woman's heart -- and presents Wiccan beliefs in a context that shows women's and men's development through the ages in conjunction with the development of Wicca. Using humor, meticulous research, and a warm, friendly style of writing, Lady Diana both informs and debunks the old superstitions that Halloween and the entertainment industry keep perpetuating. 
     As a published author with twenty book sales, I found the skillful writing engrossing, and thoroughly enjoyed the added bonus of Lady Diana's humorous, lively presentation. As a woman, I found her insight into women fascinating, and particularly pertinent to today's women of ANY religion, especially those of us raising daughters in a country where women are NOT legally entitled equal rights. Lastly, as a staunch Roman Catholic, I found Lady Diana's presentation thoughtful, non-offensive, and so sensible that I've applied some of her philosophy to my own life.
     I fully endorse this book to all readers and writers,  especially those who wish to write fiction using a Wiccan setting. Knowledge is power, and Beyond the Misty Vale is a powerful new book by a very powerful writer. I look forward to this talented writer's next publication.
