MALLEUS SATANI -The Hammer of Satan

 Suzanne Ruthven  (click for author biography)

The only accurate chronicle of the "satanic child abuse myth" from the inside: revealing how easy it was for fundamentalist fuelled social workers to convince government departments that their fictitious allegations were fact, and how the schisms within the pagan community also helped to fan the flames.  Now recognised as a classic reference work on the contemporary evolution of British paganism.

In a frank and startling insight into Witchcraft and Satanism practised today, the complex, fascinating and often surprising realm of Magic, bears little resemblance to the world of popular novelist, historian or journalist.

For the first time, the secrets of Satanic Temple and Witches' Coven are truthfully revealed.

Reviews :

"Ruthven proves her journalistic expertise with her clear objectivity, her obvious discernment
for the truth, and her insistence upon interviewing those at the core of movements themselves."
Lesley Wilkinson, Ocular Magazine
 
"This is a thought provoking account which well illustrates the dangers inherent in any religion
or social institution which maintains that's its way is the only true one and all others are
therefore to be condemned." Editor-Bulletin of the Welsh Academy.
 
"It's an objective, well-researched and well-written book-really smashing a lot of the misconceptions about Satanism from all sides."
Blanche Barton, author of The Secret Life of a Satanist.
 
"Thank you for the hint of violets!"   Anton La Vey, Church of Satan.
 
"It was very interesting to read-for once! - a sympathetic study of the subject, and one which was, not only very well researched, but also managed to avoid ever being dull or academic."
Dr Terry Hale, University of East Anglia.
 
"As well as being very interesting, it was easy to read. When once I'd started it, I had to finish
the book before putting it down. I shall certainly pass the word around that here is a
book worth reading ..." Evan John Jones, author of Witchcraft-A Tradition Renewed.
