review 1: This is a very interesting personal memoir about the author's experiences with ayahuasca in Peru. Whether his drug trips were simply the result of chemical events in his brain or they involved some greater reality that permeates the physical is open to question, but his experiences are compelling and thought provoking, and because some of them involved distant viewing and interactions with hostile shamans that were corroborated, at least in part, afterwards, it is often hard to dismiss them as simply drug induced hallucinations.
review 2: Wonderful. Although it is a narrative, it gives good insight on the uses ayahuasca, the vine of the dead, from a western viewpoint. Perhaps it even gives a little insight about what to expect (which is basically the unexpecte... mored) when visiting The Amazon and drinking the sacred brew. It will have you believing in magic by the end of it, but the only small issue is that the narrator (Peter Gorman)seemed to have made a few irrational decisions (I know, Iknow, it's subjective)during the course of the book, perhaps just to make a compelling narrative, but nonetheless is still very interesting and definitely worth picking up. 5/5 less
