It would be impossible to cite all the sources that have flowed into The Sorceress's Tale, many of which I no longer own or even remember, but which have shaped my views on history and myth. I have listed only those I referred to during the conception and writing of the Tale, and that currently reside on my "working" shelves. They are an adventure in themselves. Have fun.
