"Tales of power goes far beyonf Castenda's revious books. It is Don Juan's final statement and the reader's unique opportunity to open, like Casteneda, the door to the unknown. A splendid book."

Fascinating, mystical book - read it first in the 70s, a re-reading recently confirms that it has kept its power and mystique.

"The present book takes Carlos to the edge of the abyss itself, on an excursion into the unknown (the NAGUAL) That represents the death of his personal, historical self (his TONAL). Don Juan, his patient teacher, and Don Genaro, his lively acrobatic benefactor,must say farewell to him. They cannot help him any longer: he is truly alone, FREE, a warrior at last. Like all art. the work resistsresists and transcends conventional categories of learning." PSYCHOLOGY TODAY
