This book is a superb first book in the study of the runes. The information is presented in a orderly and very readable manner.Bernard King presents an excellent level of research on rune traditions, divination, and spiritual work. His work is firmly based on the historical and archaeological research in the field, not on new-age mixtures of ceremonial magic and wicca. You will get the straight story from his book!
This is one of a very small number of esoteric rune books that contain credible researched information about the runes and their history. King is a Heathen and writes with great respect for the Northern traditions. Unlike the majority of New-Age authors, he has gone to the academic sources.The first half of the book covers the historical information in quite a bit of depth. The second half covers practical techniques of divination and other uses. Although the very last chapters are necessarily speculative, he makes no unfounded claims about historical rune use.I would recommend this as one of the few books I would give as an introduction to someone interested in learning about the esoteric side of the runes.SweynThe Rune Primer
It's a very interesting and serious book for those who would like to know about the mythology and religion of the ancient Runic world.
My dad loved it!Highly recommend !
Don't get me wrong this is a good book. After hearing that it was THE book for advanced users (from numerous sources) I was very much looking forward to reading it. It does get into the history of the runes but not as thoroughly as I was led to believe. The history is poorly put together and choppily written.If you are heavily into rune work then this book might give you an insight or two, but overall it does not live up to its hype.
