A War of Witches : A Journey into the Underworld of the Contemporary Aztecs

Timothy J. Knab

4/5 ( ratings)

"A War of Witches is an astonishing account of a world of magic and sorcery that echoes the deepest roots of Aztec mysticism. What begins as an innocent ethnographic encounter ends in a revelation as Knab uncovers the ghoulish dimensions of a blood feud that has left dozens of sorcerers dead."
-- Wade Davis
Author of The Serpent and the Rainbow
"A War of Witches represents a uniquely original and authentic piece of research into one of the most difficult topics to penetrate and evaluate -- the highly sacred rituals concerning the gods and lost souls of the modern Aztecs. It will long stand as a milestone in anthropology."
-- Richard Evan Schultes, Harvand Botanical Museum
Author of Plants of the Gods
