Albert Shiell is a practicing folk magician and seiðkarl from Lewes, Sussex, England. Today he lives in Reykjavík, Iceland where he spends time in the land and working with spirits. He is the author of the two books: Icelandic Folk Magic, Witchcraft of the North and Icelandic Plant Magic: Folk Herbalism of the North. His work focuses mostly on the union of Iceland magical plants, folklore and magical staves.
