Summary: Fun Voodoo
Comment: It's about time Voodoo stopped being so up-its-own-bum stuffy! Followers of Voodoo moan because their religion is represented as 'black magic' and all dolls and pins, then they moan when someone takes the time to write about it and try to give it some dignity. The Voodoo Spellbook is a fun read and helps raise the profile of the religion in a good way, so more power to it. Another book I liked is Vodou Shaman by Ross Heaven, who is a priest (Houngan) of Haitian Voodoo, but also yer average white guy living in England. Heaven's book is more of a serious look at Voodoo but still accessible, open and honest about the religion and has some useful exercises in it too, as well as a few spells and herbal recipes. You'll enjoy them both. Well done Dr Snake and well done Houngan Heaven.

Summary: Thankyou Doktor Snake and Reviews.
Comment: I bought this book after reading the reviews listed on here about Dr. Snakes book. I must say I am glad I spent the money. It was well worth it and I just love the stories. There are a few good spells for money luck. Thats what I was interested in myself. I love the section on playing cards also. I love the stories about selling your soul to the devil to play guitar. Super book! Very neat. I totally recommend. I am buying one for all my soul sisters for X-mas. Dr. Snake write another book!!!!!

Summary: Fascinating Voodoo / Hoodoo Introduction & Application
Comment: This is a fascinating introduction to Voodoo / Hoodoo, with practical application of various techniques--spells, curses, folk magick--for anyone interested in the subject.
This book provides a very subtle, yet exciting introduction to Southern style Voodoo / Hoodoo (not the Religion of "Voodou").
I read this book in one sitting, and could not put it down. This small coffee-table style book is packed with short spells and stories that explain the subject in a very concise and entertaining manner. At-first, it seems like the book & voodoo doll is a quaint gift set, but the feel of the book and the writings within are inspiring and conducive to comprehending a general overview of Southern Voodoo / Hoodoo.
New Orleans style Voodoo is the foundation of the book and it contains a brief introduction to many aspects of Voodoo / Hoodoo.
Aside from the great Spells, I particularly enjoyed the section about reading Playing Cards as Tarot cards. Historically, "playing cards" derived from Tarot cards, so this is quite practical. The meanings of each card, in a typical card deck are given, listing the correspondences, per each suit.
If you enjoy the section about playing cards as much as I did, you can purchase the following beautiful standard deck to begin using the techniques, per Doktor Snake....then, work your way up to the correspondences in the lovely book that comes with the card deck: "The Fortune Teller's Deck: Predict Your Future With Playing Cards," by Jane Lyle (ISBN # 0312136684). This deck has a particularly good feel and look for a Gypsy or Voodoo / Witchcraft practitioner--with an Antiqued style.
Keep in mind that "Doktor Snake's Voodoo Spellbook: Spells, Curses and Folk Magic for All Your Needs," by Doktor Snake, is a general overview of the subject and a personal account thereof....yet, it is a fascinating little book, packed with Spells, ideas, stories, inspiration and is well-worth the price.
I am very pleased with this book and it inspired me to research further. However, if you want in-depth research, I suggest "Voodou Visions." Don't pass-up Doktor Snake's book, though--it is worth owning just for the "playing card" Tarot correspondences!
