As children many westerners have fond memories of watching Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, and an equally wide selection of fantasy films and literature. Something about the genre resonates deeply with the people - like Santa Claus, brothers Grimm, a magical time when amazing things come to life. The True History of Wizards and
Witches develops further upon this by unveiling a non-fiction history of paganism, magic and witchcraft, in Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East. History is normally dry reading. But when it comes to these guys, the factual wizards, your mind will pop, attempting to assimilate the magnitude of what they left for the future. Strange inventions, education, astronomy, medicine, metallurgy, the list goes on and on. They belong first and foremost to the alternative history of Europe and the Orient, perhaps even the best, juiciest and most important chapter.
