From Shade Oroboros of Silver Star Magazine:
Based on the popular Wraeththu series, presenting a fully realized mystical universe, a sacred calendar and even menus for feasts, along with a sigil system and arcane rituals devoted to a strange and vivid pantheon of androgynous hermaphrodite deities
From Lupa, author of Fang and Fur, Blood and Bone: A Primal Guide to Animal Magic:
I was introduced to the Wraeththu mythos and "Pop Culture Magick" by Taylor Ellwood (who contributed to the Grimoire) about a year ago. Being an adventurous magician, I found that using modern mythology in magic was just as effective as ancient mythology. This book, the first in a series of three, is an excellent tool for those wishing to do the same.
Utilizing the Wraeththu mythos, surrounding androgynous, hermaphroditic deities from Constantine's books, "Kaimana" weds the mythos to basic neopagan practices and holidays. It's a superb look at how the gods need not be found in Bulfinch or Hamilton's books of mytholog to be appropriate to the cycles of the seasons and life.
While the book is primarily aimed at fans of the Wraeththu mythos, those who have not yet been introduced to it may find this to be a fascinating take on spirituality. Reading the fiction that the mythos come sfrom is helpful, and well worth the read. However, Constantine proves she can write nonfiction every bit as well as fiction.

...few systems of magick stand out of their own way so gracefully
