of Volume 1 # 3 by Factsheet Five
"This issue has some striking graphics, unsurprising with an editor
at RISD. There are a series
of interviews in 'Witches of the World'. Each section starts with
brief biographical info and details each person's involvement
in the various traditions. Taken as a whole, it's a fascinating
study. A parchment-like insert has a very nice color Celtic border
surrounding a 'Self-Dedication Ritual'. Lots of fun bits in this
zine. Recommended."

of Volume 2 #1 by Factsheet Five
"This issue has some striking graphics as usual (the editor is
at RISD) There is another installment
in a series of interviews with a woman from Florida who follows
the 'Celtic Tradition of Witchcraft'. A parchment-like insert
has a very impressionistic image of a dagger in a stump or stone
with flames around it. Lots of fun bits in this zine. It's worth
getting for the artwork alone. Highly recommended."

of Volume 2 #2 by Factsheet Five
"Crescent has continued to evolve into a visually unique zine
with a consistant and attractive graphic appearance. They have
merged with The Rosegate Journal, the zine formerly published
by W.A.R.D. (Witches Against Religious Discrimination) and the
Rosarian Tradition of Witchcraft. Many of the writers in this
expanded issue used to write for Rosegate. Other writers and artists
are RISD (Rhode Island School
of Design) students and alums. The theme of this issue is Imbolg
and Norse Mythology. A series of interviews with different people
continues with Lazarus Chernik on the Runes of the Elder Futhark.
Other articles include 'Lambs and Sheep in Celtic Faith', 'Thor',
'People of the North', and 'Magical Alphabets'. It's worth getting
for the outstanding artwork alone. Recommended."
