It's decent.
Have it on PDF if you would like.
Since you already own a copy it would be cool.

I liked it too. Broad host of subjects, although it seems to jump around quite a bit without much rhyme or reason.

Still a good book though, lol!

I thought it was shite.

He makes a bunch of random connections and is all "Ya, I just did that" about it. If you like his speeches and philosophy you will enjoy it. I don't like his flow of logic, it's too inconsistent and bizarre for me.

Yeah, I've got the paperback but PM me a PDF of it would be cool as a backup! :thumbup:

Looking forward to reading this one...

In my opinion, Terrence McKenna is best appreciated for his efforts in expanding our ideas of what is accepted reality. Don't get stuck on the specifics of his theories, as they can be a little off the wall.
