    This is the story of Joe from the beginning to the present. Joe grew up in a small community in the mountains of Wyoming and was involved in all the crazy hillbilly activities of the region. He rode bulls and horses in the rodeo and spent the weekends finding interesting ways to hurt himself. Joe was under constant pressure during his youth from the church and the religious fanatics in his family. When Joe became a teenager he joined missions with the Nondenominational Church and traveled to Australia where he worked to help out and convert the Aborigines....

    Would you consider the audio edition of The Art of Waking Dreams to be better than the print version?

    I like the fact that the author narrated the book. Its more real that way.


    What did you like best about this story?

    All the travel info and descriptions of locals and all the guys crazy experiences


    What does Josiah Heiser bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    Like I said I like when the author narrates, I feel I got to know the author a bit.


    What did you learn from The Art of Waking Dreams that you would use in your daily life?

    All the info about the lucid dreaming


    Any additional comments?

    I wouldn't recommend this to the devout religious as the author spends some time discussing the negative impacts of his religious experience and how he feels about the spiritual vs religious. Other than the religious parts I think that this is a good book for any travelers and adventurers and truth seekers out there. It's raw and strait forward and sounds like Kerouac at times. The guy has my respect just for all the crazy stuff he has survived. The info about Antarctica is pretty cool too. I can't believe that people can survive at the south pole in the winter. Over all I give it five stars based on substance, its honest and feels real.

    In 19th century Tsarist Russia an orphaned child born of Jewish and Cossack blood grows up in a land of wealthy aristocrats, struggling peasants, and growing discontent. Sent to an elite military academy at the tender age of four, Sergei Ivanov (Socrates) comes of age training to protect a way of life he doesn't understand. When a sudden death forces Sergei to flee, he escapes into the wilderness.
