Two Llewellyn titles, The Temple of High Witchcraft by Christopher Penczak and Natural Witchery by Ellen Dugan, have been awarded prestigious awards from the Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR), with several other Llewellyn titles being noted as award finalists, including:
• Mystic Faerie Tarot, by Barbara Moore (Interactive Sideline);
• Llewellyn's Complete Book of Astrology, by Kris Brandt Riske, M.A. (Divination);
• Magical Symbols of Love and Romance, by Richard Webster (Magic/Shamanism);
• Goddess Alive!, by Michelle Skye (Wicca/Pagan);
• Women's Rites, Women's Mysteries, by Ruth Barrett (Wicca/Pagan).
COVR is an organization formed by a unique group of businesses that deal in "Visionary Resources," and who work with and support each other as independent retailers, manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and publishers of visionary books, music, and merchandise.
For the eleventh consecutive year, COVR's Visionary Awards were presented at the International New Age Trade Show (INATS) banquet, this year held on June 28th, 2008 in Denver, Colorado. The Visionary Awards are judged by retailers and seasoned professionals, who evaluate each title based upon content, presentation, and their own knowledge of the industry.
“It is with great pride that I recognize our award-winning authors,” said Carl Weschcke, Chairman of Llewellyn Worldwide. “In recent years there has been a tendency to disparage New Age books as “fluff.” Well, I don’t think so, and neither does the Coalition of Visionary Resources. For eleven years now COVR has honored the best books in Body, Mind & Spirit, and many Llewellyn books and authors have been so recognized.”
