Don't waste your time *by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2020* I'm not going to read past the first chapter because of the blatant misinformation on the "history" of the runes. It first seems to imply that our "modern writing system" of letters and sounds to create words and describe ideas - rather than pictographs and images to communicate, was a European invention! It later goes on to describe how this "process" (of alphabets replacing pictograms) began in Egypt, as a more convenient way to replace their hieroglyphics.Not a single mention within the entire chapter of Mesopotamia??? The actual place where the first forms of writing began??? The earliest of which date back to 3500 BCE!! Not 1700 BCE, as this book claims.Furthermore, pictograms to represent ideas to make up phrases is not an ancient, pre modern, or inefficient writing method - see Chinese and Japanese, both MODERN languages which use this method of writing. Furthermore, Egyptian hieroglyphics are NOT pictograms to exclusively represent ideas, they can represent a word, a sound, a syllable, or a concept. Egyptian hieroglyphics were fit so perfectly for Egyptian culture and society that it is thought the system was developed all at once, similar to how the Korean writing system was invented just in a day. There was no adoption to alphabetic writings, because they already USED alphabetic writing.This book is cheap, but not worth it. I don't care to read any further, because this book, and it's spread of misinformation, infuriates me. I can't trust it on any other information, when all of this was so blatantly innacurrate. Seriously, not a SINGLE mention of Mesopotamian cuneiform?! In a description on the HISTORY OF WRITING!! ### ⭐⭐ Disappointed *by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2018* Book is small in more than just overall number of pages. Buyers need to beware the print in this book is ridiculous , you will need a magnifying glass to read the tiny print . Makes me think the publisher was just to cheap to use more paper and add more pages so the book could actually be read comfortably. Obviously disappointed ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good introduction *by V***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2018* This book was a really good introduction to the runes. It had sections for background information before getting to brief yet informative descriptions of individual runes. The rune descriptions are not so long as to get boring, but give enough that you understand the...intent behind them. I also appreciated the resources listed at the end for further information on runes and Norse beliefs. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/103327908-runes-for-beginners-a-guide-to-reading-runes-in-divination](https://www.desertcart.it/products/103327908-runes-for-beginners-a-guide-to-reading-runes-in-divination) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
