Intrigued

I loved this, very interesting delving into the world of conjuring. Resonated heavily with me as an animist I took much inspiration and knowledge from this.

A Great Read!

It held my attention from start to finish. Certainly more plausible and coherent than Castaneda.

Fascinating journey into Conjuring

Being someone who is interested in Native American lore and their Stories and Natural Magic/Conjuring I was mesmerized by this book. It reminds me a bit of A Separate Reality by Carlos Castañeda but more about the Animal Spirits and how we interact with them. Good listen.

Interesting insight

If you have questions about indigenous medicine this is not your book. If you want confirmation that there is a whole healing art that has been taken from the world because a people couldn’t understand accept or embrace. Then this is your book to say; yes there was and hopefully enough knowledge was passed down in secrecy that it will rise again.

Deeply moved by David’s life journey

This book was an incredible read, and a good reminder of the depth of life. I miss so much living on life’s surface. Connecting to the spirit world, listening to ancient wisdom, and the messages the animal kingdom brings is the true meaning of life.
