And it does cover a good range for interest. I would definitely recommend as a primer and introduction. However, there's a major problem that I couldn't get past.In at least the Veles piece (where I already had copious prior knowledge on the subject) -- it was abundantly clear that the author of that piece just summarized other people's research, opinions and thoughts. Nothing was cited in section, not even a note that says "previous scholar __ mentions", or anything. Which is exceptionally problematic when she's basically summarizing another researcher's work and not giving any credit. Also, there is a mass of summarizing, suppositions and no proof for the comments. There is nothing wrong with bringing up prior research, but when you're not even using your own opinions, it should be noted as being the words/work/thoughts of another person. None of that is done.A large part of the commentary comes from misquotes and incorrect citations of "The Primary Chronicle" (I believe she uses the Cross translation). All of her comments on what Veles actually looked like are complete supposition. Nowhere in the Primary Chronicle does it mention what Veles looks like, but she heavily states that it does. In fact, the only god in the Primary Chronicle described is Perun--and at that it's only his statue described--so her misquote is a problem. Then she cites passages without attribution, just stating "The Primary Chronicle says", when these sections do not exist, or exist under different grand princes, and not as she states. Using this book as your source, as one of the few near-primary sources is problematic if the personal biases and opinions of the author are injected over the text and paired with incorrect citations. Honesty and truth are important in analysing sources to write an information piece.Then the author chooses to cite the Book of Veles and her treatment of it is a brief few sentences that say that it's somewhat controversial, but she doesn't acknowledge that it's universally panned as a forgery and it cannot be considered valid. So that's another problem for the unaware. If you don't already have a good foundation on Slavic paganism in general, it would be very easy to assume that the Book of Veles is just like books proven to have once been in the Bible, but now rejected due to Church decisions -- instead of the forgery that the historical community all notes it to be.Because of the lack of citations, the lack of acknowledging most of the piece is summarized from other authors, and the blatant misinformation or misquotations -- I have major problems with this piece. And since this piece I had a large background knowledge on, I'm concerned that the rest of the book suffers from the same lack of oversight on editing and presenting a factual, well-cited, and knowledgeable honest book of assorted essays. Because I am not nearly as knowledgeable about the mythology in the other essays presented, I can't evaluate them in the same way as I did this one essay. I will say that some of the other pieces I appreciate the easy-reading style. They're clearly written and easy to understand, which is nice. But I don't know about the quality of the book overall.So I give it 2 stars, because of obvious quality and honesty problems in how at least 1 of the essays is written, even though it's an easy read and accessible. ### ⭐ Not what I expected *by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2017* I hoped it was more about the horned God but it was more about the experience of christian who turned pagan. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast shipping! Helpful book! *by P***A on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2019* I bought this lovely book during a rough time in my life a long time ago. A couple years back I lent it to a friend, but never did ask for it back. So I bought bought it again this past week and got it two days later. Great shipping. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/17282999-horns-of-power-manifestations-of-the-horned-god](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/17282999-horns-of-power-manifestations-of-the-horned-god) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-11-05*
