SYBIL LEEK'S BOOK OF CURSES

Like drat? Well, a little more than that as the witch-that-was practices her laying-on-of hands on all kinds of curses, oaths, swearwords, covenants, candle magic with wax and oils, promises, spells, vows and what-have-you in her usual magpie fashion, borrowing from neo-history and literature and ritual. There's that too -- voodoo and spells and traveling ghosts and wandering skulls as this old broomstick not only sweeps clean but makes a clean sweep of anything eerie that's around which comes into her head.
