Critics Review

“Are you ready to have your mind blown? Seriously, are you looking for a book that will force you to confront and/or reevaluate your thoughts on the very prospect of God or Gods themselves? … Hidden within this informative, straight forward text, is a philosophical discourse that is fascinating. Once you open this book, you’ll find it hard to put down.” * The Magical Buffet, June 2009 *“The authors are initiated and experienced in Shamanic and Vodou traditions and here provide keys to understanding possession and spirit agendas.” * The Midwest Book Review, Aug 2009 *“This book is a must for anyone considering experimenting with possession or who may have been possessed. As the authors state, you are not crazy if you are possessed… . an excellent overview on spirit possession. For the serious student, there are numerous references for future reading, but the most important message of this book is the seriousness of possession.” * Arlene Shovald, Ph.D., Fresh Start Therapies, Jan 2010 *”… this rich, deep and extensive book is the work of two experienced, thoughtful and intelligent travelers who grace us with their map of the land of spirit possession with intelligence, wit and humility. They ask that we always treat the spirits with respect, learn their ways, original culture, expectations and taboos, and take responsibility for our part in the relationship - not bad advice for any relationship.” * Karl Schlotterbeck, MA, CAS, LP, The Henge of Keltria, August 2010 *
