This was an excellent book about Diane Dunn´s personal journey into the world of shamanism of Peru. She talks a lot about the energy and power of self along with the wisdom of the shamans of Peru that allowed her to find her spiritual path and help others do so. I liked her honesty and simplicity in this book and it made me that much happier to be living in such the amazing energetic place that is Cusco. I really like that she is not only a woman but a white American one at that, who is a shaman having learned from Peruvian shamans, how to practice. There is no rule that says shamanism is only for Peruvian men and she proves that. I think it´s great. This is an interesting read and will definitely enlighten the reader about the spirituality that surrounds Cusco.
