An American engineer in West Africa encounters a visitor from the Otherworld at Samhain; a wisewoman discovers that a chair she bought in a second-hand shop possesses magical properties; a young Druid calls on his patron god, the Green Man, to help him save a redwood forest; a twelve-year-old girl undergoes a coming-of-age ritual in the Craft of the Wise; and a lawyer calls on Ma'at, the Egyptian goddess of truth and justice, to help her track down a killer.

From Mali to Washington, DC, and from Melbourne, Australia to Victoria, British Columbia, these stories of people who follow the Pagan path will both enthrall and entertain. The mood ranges from "feel good" ("The Glamour of a Witch" and "The Chair") to intriguing ("Calling the Green Man" and "To Handfast at Twilight") to downright mysterious ("Somewhere a Drum Waits for Me" and "House of Blue").
