wonderful!

this book is totally eye-opening and brings to light histories that we are never taught in school. it's so affirming to hear of so many cultures having different ways of viewing queerness. it makes me feel more settled in my identity and appreciate magic and spirituality in a different way! a big thank you to the author! blessings. :-)

Trigger warning for trans folks...

A lot of language around “biological” identities, all with the best intentions, but I found it cumulatively frustrating with so much repetition and as such a modern/conservative word to layer on non colonial international perspectives on gender. Also, guest writers from non western cultures are given accents by the reader which was unnecessary. Generally this book is a good introductory survey from a gay cis male lens of global magic and LGBTQ+ traditions.

Educational and Empowering

As a queer Black man, I've often felt ostracized by society - especially by Christianity. This beautiful book has given me insight to what it means to be spiritual from a queer aspect and a wide range of deities and knowledge I can draw on to heal my own insecurities.

Good historical info

Didn’t know what I to expect and didn’t realize how uneducated I was on queer history/civilizations pre-Christian influence. Not so much a book on magic, but can definitely see how it could influence someone’s practice.

Only downside is that it ended...

This book was well researched and intelligent, well organized, and I especially appreciated the repeated reminders to do additional research and form relationships before claiming a term or affinity that belongs to another culture. I absolutely intend to reread this, utilize the exercises, and am tempted to purchase additional copies to gift to friends. It is a fantastic introduction to a multitude of cultures and practices I both was and was not familiar with, and have found several avenues I would like to begin researching on my own.

An experience to be had

This audiobook is definitely in my top 10. The performance is perfect and the content will enrich your life experience more than you can imagine. It's a triple dose on queer culture, queer history, and queer magic. An absolute must have and I've just purchased the physical book for my library.

Enlightening.

I am a practitioner of witchcraft, and studying Shaman of the Northern tradition. This book has been very enlightening, and confirming in my journey. As a Nonbinary practitioner, it was nice hearing that I am not the first, and I am not alone.

The most comprehensive book on queer history.

Tomas Prower again delivers a book with clear and interesting information regarding queer history in general and queer magic in particular. It kept my attention 100% of the time with easy to digest knowledge.
