Fantasy and Your Family: Exploring the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Modern Magick Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Richard Abanes wasted his time writting this book. Why do I say this? Because he wrote the same book a year before this one came out. The only difference it that he renamed it from "Harry Potter and the Bible" to "Fantasy and your Family." In both books Abanes gives an unfair and biassed crtiticism of...
