Loved this short little book. It's basically the story of how NLP can change your life by helping you to learn how to be in control of yourself... how to make yourself something rather than nothing.

I thought this book was about something related to NLP. But after I read I realized that it was truly just a fable (just like Bandler said at the beginning of the book).

Got it in mp3 format so I guess I have got the best of both worlds - the content and the "best read out loud to you" part. I found my mind constantly wondering and trying to decipher what each sequence in the story was supposed to "teach" you and what effect it was meant to have, what techniques were used and why, which interfered with my total immersion and enjoyment of the story. But at times I did find myself being "hypnotized" into total focus on what was being read out loud and hanging on every word waiting to find out how the events are going to unfold.
Alas I can not get it out of my head what exactly is this fable meant to DO and who it is meant to have the reader go through subconscious changes, so if you are bent on self analysis like I am stay away from the book as it will probably forever remain an unsolved mystery nagging at the back of your mind.

Like a lot of Bandler's work, could use a little more on the horizontal plane. When I read it, though, I read it normally (rather than extra slowly, as I've since learned one should do when reading trance-texts), so possible re-read is merited.

This is an incredibly interesting book, however I think it would make more sense to readers who have at least a basic understanding of NLP. This one is definitely one I will recommend to friends and family but I think I will give them some background information first.

Read it twice...need another couple of rounds. "Mind-bending+"

[Maria Morrison · Rating 5 out of 5]

An amazing book. Hypnotic and a true fable.

This book is such a good read that 5 stars doesn't do it justice. It's language and subtle (sometimes not so subtle) undertone shows how effective effective language can be.

A must read fable

[Bülent Duagi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mindfuck

[Ole · Rating 5 out of 5]

Like Platos Phaedo it is a book that needs reading twice or more. Amazing and mindbending!

When you understand our inner operating manual and how it has evolved, you realise life is just one big adventure.
