Reviews
"Amy Wallace expertly maps the territory where mysticism merges into insanity, or perhaps the unmarked land between screwball comedy and terrifying tragedy. I can't recall a stranger, sadder narrative than this." -Carolyn See, author ofMaking a Literary Life "Truth hurts … and so doesSorcerer's Apprentice.Amy Wallace's harrowing account of her years as Carlos Castaneda's lover and disciple is a cautionary tale for our times, the story of a woman whose search for meaning took her to the brink, and damned near cost her everything. In this painfully honest memoir, she takes us deep inside the Castaneda cult and shows us the mind games, ego trips, and petty cruelties that wore the guise of wisdom. 'Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!' the Wizard once tried to tell Dorothy. Amy Wallace has ripped the curtain down, and laid the wizard bare for all to see." -George R.R. Martin, author ofA Game of Thrones "Sorcerer's Apprenticeis a haunting and brutally honest memoir that reads like a tender love story and, at the same time, a taut psychological thriller. Amy Wallace writes with wisdom, grace, courage, and candor about one of the most charismatic figures of all our times, and she allows us to witness both the splendor and the danger of entrusting one's fate to a powerful man or woman." -Jonathan Kirsch, author ofThe Harlot by the Side of the RoadandThe Woman Who Laughed at God "I simply could not put this book down. Amy Wallace's relationship with Carlos Castaneda was transformative, exciting, abusive, and painful. This is a cautionary tale, containing essential insights for all of us. Thank you, Amy, for having the courage to tell your story so that others may learn from it, and from the redemptive powers of your own healing." -Susan Piver, author ofThe Hard Questions, "Amy Wallace expertly maps the territory where mysticism merges into insanity, or perhaps the unmarked land between screwball comedy and terrifying tragedy.

Synopsis
A tale of anthropologist-turned-shaman Carlos Castaneda's life and Amy's own role within his world, Sorcerer's Apprentice is intriguing and mind-boggling. Aware of the strange and manipulative measures Carlos took in pursuing her, Amy was still drawn into his inner circle in a whirlwind romance that appealed to her passionate craving for love, adventure, and mystery. This is an intricate and tragic account of love and dedication mixed with deception and betrayal.

- e***u (283)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
