Runes Editorial Review
**** The book "ALU: An Advanced Guide to Operative Runology" by Edred Thorsson is a significant contribution to the field of runology, particularly for those well-acquainted with its intricacies. It has been well-received by readers who have invested Considerable time in studying runes and have relied on Thorsson's prior works. Many reviewers commend Thorsson's ability to distill complex topics into an accessible format, balancing historical context with practical applications in runecraft. Thorsson's expertise is lauded, with several readers highlighting his depth of knowledge and academic credibility in the subject of runes. Unlike other texts that conflate runes with tarot interpretations, "ALU" maintains a focus on their authentic traditions and practices, allowing practitioners to connect more deeply with the lore and true uses of runes as understood by the ancient Norse. This adherence to historical accuracy is a major positive aspect that separates the book from other works on the market. However, the reception is not without critiques. Some users faced technical difficulties, particularly with special characters in digital formats, which hindered their reading experience. A few reviewers expressed concerns about the book feeling like a promotional piece for Thorsson's affiliated organizations, as well as a perceived lack of innovation compared to his earlier writings. Despite these criticisms, "ALU" remains regarded as a valuable resource for those serious about the study of runes, offering insights that can enlighten both novices and more advanced practitioners. **
