A nice introduction with a lot of reference material and ideas on how to build on what is included here. It is very much the gateway, not the path. The tone is approachable and welcoming.
I don't feel I took as much content away from the chapters themselves, but am looking forward to delving into the books and resources mentioned throughout. They seem very comprehensive. For someone who has not encountered Heathenry before this would give some good waypoints and ideas.
My favourite chapter is probably the one on folklore and the little personal tidbits found throughout.
