Publisher's Summary

Life can be extraordinary if only you believe. Ishtar Brock believes in the Mountain Spirit Rubezahl, the beet counter, ruler above and below a Silesian massif in southwestern Poland. He takes her into the realm of mysticism, enchantment, and, finally, upon her request, to Plato's Land of Shadows. Societal frailties, ghosts, witchcraft, and tingling excitement transports the listener into a world of passion and adventure.

Any additional comments?

While the storyline described a delusional daydream, the descriptive language was fascinating. It seemed that Sieglinde included all her longings, interests, insights and regrets into a fantasy story representing yearnings toward emotional fulfillment.
