Described by the author as a "meandering chronicle of life on an archaeological dig," Come, Tell Me How You Live is Dame Agatha Christie's first-person account of her time spent in this breathtaking corner of the globe where recorded human history began.

They often fail to provide a spell for your particular situation and its unique dynamics. Furthermore, many modern spell books try to impose the author's morality upon the reader and may not contain certain types of spells, at all.

This book demonstrates the process of learning how to write your own spells and teaches you why certain components are employed in a spell and what their purpose is. It shows that there is far more to spell casting than just going through the motions or wishing for a result. All spells have a far greater chance of success when the spell caster has an complete understanding of what he or she is doing and why. Blindly following a procedure or formula without knowledge or going through the motions without understanding is less likely to lead to a positive result.

The spells you write should become part of your own personal, private Book of Shadows. Keeping records of your endeavors and their success or failure is an important method of tracking your progress and improving your skills.
