Loved it!

A+ this is profound knowing and should be listened to. Buying more from this author.

awesome 👍

the best one yet. very informative and I will likely be listening again and again

Awful Narration

The reader is unlistenable. I wish I could get a refund. It makes otherwise great content bad.

Sheldon

If only it really was Jim Parsons narrating this! This narration was one of the most laborious readings I've ever heard. The only thing that allowed me to stop being negatively distracted from the content, by it, was to imagine I was in a Big Bang Theory episode listening the Sheldon read to me.
Consequently, I beg whoever chooses narrators for this series to PLEASE just hire Jim, and make this bearable because the content is so desirable, but your current narrator is tortuous to listen to!

good information

enjoyed the subject matter of this collection. look forward to more on this subject and others.

incomplete in its information description

this audio book has a lot of information, but I found its description tedious an incomplete in most part and boring in its reading.

Good experience

A great read for the disciplined mind, a few parts were too wordy.

perfect snipits of ancient knowledge!

if you are curious about the occult, this might be a good guide to your quest for knowledge.

Great Information

I thought this book was amazing. The information included is all worth a listen. The narration can be tough to get past, but I have listened to books with worse narrators. I appreciated the narrator's pronunciations and care taken with his words. This helped me understand the text better.

Can’t believe I made it through

Wow. The information and paper selection was great but the readers are horrible. I really thought I couldn’t make it through the whole thing in fact I had to finish in three parts which is never the case for me. The woman is slightly more enjoyable than the man but both are some of the driest readers I’ve hear.
