Comments pulled from Amazon:
“Mierzwicki has succeeded in combining fine scholarship with deep vision to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of Grecian polytheistic theory and practice. His offering brings to life an ancient tradition made relevant for modern times.”—Kristoffer Hughes, author of From the Cauldron Born, and The Journey Into Spirit
“Hellenismos is an excellent guide to practicing ancient Greek polytheism. Advancing from daily, personal practices, to the sacred lunar month, and finally to the annual festival cycle, Tony gently draws the reader deeper into Hellenic polytheism.”—John Opsopaus, author of The Oracles of Apollo and The Pythagorean Tarot
“Hellenismos makes an open and shut case for the need to modify the ancient Greek religion to suit the modern world, rather than recreating it faithfully…The author provides a wonderful guide to crafting your own personal path of venerating the ancient Greek gods and goddesses while remaining true to the spirit of the time.”—Karen Tate, author of Walking An Ancient Path
