Solid, but I already knew a bunch of it from Phil Rickman's Merrily Watkins mysteries. Phil read it too.

I was more than impressed with this volume. The author(s) show a strong knowledge of both parapsychology and the history of deliverance practices. This book has been used for years to train Anglican deliverance ministers, and in my opinion, it has withstood the test of time.

I do have a few disagreements on some topics (or at least areas where I'd like clarification), but overall this is a fantastic resource. I also intend on using some of the prayers and rites included in Appendix III in lay ministry and home situations.

Packed with info, case studies and some controversial angles.
