News about the EJMMM

I received a nice online review for the EJMMM (in Wales, no less!):

This book is a veritable treasure trove of information. I had been looking forward to it since I saw it first advertised, and I was not disappointed. Within its pages you will find a comprehensive encyclopaedia of thousands of entries of everything from Aaron to Zombies! This book really is a delight and immensely useful, if you are interested in Jewish folklore, magical practices, beliefs, Kabbalah, and the fantastic and miraculous. The author draws from a huge range of source material, including Jewish Scriptures, the Talmud, the Midrash, Kabbalistic texts and others. The book also includes a detailed bibliography, so essential in encyclopaedic works, and useful appendices making the book easier to use for reference. All in all a real gem of a book, thoroughly recommended. Go and buy it!
