Reading Warrior Magic was like finally taking a breath of fresh air after living in pollution for so long. This latest book by queer and Latinx author Tomás Prower is a timely and welcome addition to my witchcraft library, as it should be in yours.

We live in chaotic and revolutionary times. Many of us as modern people have lost touch with the magical practices of our ancestors, especially when it comes to justice magic. Every culture has engaged in justice magic in some form and through Warrior Magic, Prower takes his readers on a journey around the world and throughout history to reacquaint us with these global practices, which often entail the use of magic to rise up against oppressors and obtain justice in seemingly impossible circumstances such as war, slavery, unjust legal systems, governmental corruption, and societal discrimination.

Warrior Magic is more than a book of magic and spells, it is a call to action. Prower uses this magical wisdom from the past as guidance for how we can actively forge a better society and address injustices occurring in the world today. Aside from being very well researched, the book is full of meaningful contributions from people of all walks of life and magical traditions who graciously share their knowledge and personal experiences related to justice magic. Many of these contributors are from marginalized or historically oppressed communities and it is wonderful to see their voices elevated in Warrior Magic.

This book has exceeded my expectations in every way I could imagine, and I feel more empowered than ever to go out and fight the good fight.

I love this book so much! We reviewed this on the podcast. I then read his Santa Muerta book, and I am now on to Queer Magic. His writing is accessible, well researched, entertaining as well as informative. He does indeed go around the world interviewing people about their history, their way of fighting injustice, and overcoming that injustice. Sometimes, the stories are those of continuing to fight for justice and freedom. On a personal level - Tomás is charismatic, smart, and quick-witted, with a database of magickal knowledge all living in his head - not just in his books. If you are struggling to feel empowered right now - let this book infuse your life with that Warrior Strength, Warrior Power, and Warrior Magic. HIGHLY recommend.

I had incorrect expectations around this book. It was mainly a historical reference and not practical applications.
