I loved the cover and the first story, but the other reviewer said it right, these are not for everybody. A little too out there for me.

I read White Eagle's THE QUIET MIND every day so I was anxious to read this book as well. I couldn't really get into it much, because he talks about people who live on Mars and Venus and about reincarnation, both of which I do not believe.

I recently discovered Terry Kay, thanks to Pat Conroy's recommendation in MY READING LIFE.

Terry Kay is a wonderful writer and I really loved this book.
