 Finally! A true old craft journal August 8, 2008
One of the best pagan journals around. I hope there are many more issues to come!!
Some minor editing problems, but all in all an excellent read.
 Interesting, but... June 23, 2008

I think that readers should be aware that this is a magazine style publication and not really a paperback book as advertised. I wasn't aware of that when I ordered this item, and was disappointed when I opened the package. I felt a bit deceived. Also the magazine is very slim, and because of this I feel it's quite over-priced.
But, all that aside, in fairness I must say that the material is very interesting and is a worthwhile read. The magazine contains a variety of articles claiming to reflect traditional witchcraft. It was refreshing not to see yet another rehash of the same old thing.
Some of the articles in this magazine do appear to reveal elements of traditional witchcraft. The use of the skull and the inclusion of ancestral spirits is one example. The only weakeness in the articles is when a contributing author offers his or her personal opinion (as opposed to simply presenting older teachings). I found this to be hit and miss, particularly when addressing family traditions. But other than a few debatable positions in this regard, the articles appear to be generally sound.
promising start for a new Traditional Witchcraft periodical May 3, 2008

There are many magazines, books, and websites that cover Wiccan varieties of witchcraft, but precious few for traditional or non-Wiccan witchcraft. "The Crooked Path: A Journal of the Nameless Art" has done a good job helping fix that problem with this promising first issue of their new periodical.
It's not a theoretical magazine, although there is theory presented in the pages, but clearly produced by practitioners for practitioners. And with authors like Ann Finnin, Peter Paddon, R. J. Thompson, Radomir Ristic, and Raven Womack readers are sure to find a wealth of valuable information to absorb.
I look forward to upcoming issues and highly recommend "The Crooked Path Journal" to everyone, traditional or not, who is interested in modern witchcraft.
