The author proclaims this book to be a manual for reconstructionists everywhere. I bought the book, being very excited by the prospect, only to discover it to be a simplified, watered-down version of any book on ancient Greek religion. I think it's great that a practicing reconstructionist has written a book, but the contents don't tell the reader how one can fit this practice into a modern person's daily life. It's basically a summary of myths, heroes, and Gods. It's nothing new to the well-read recon.
