Reviews of the book from amazon.com:
"I can describe it using a thousand words and still not begin to describe it. There is nothing like it in print, that's for sure."
"I most appreciate the wisdom in this book, I have not read anything that even comes close."
"Has satisfied my every question."
(After 25+ years on Amazon and 4000+ written reviews across all editions, 4.5 out of 5 stars.)
No person is credited as the author. How did this strange but relentlessly detailed and expansive book come to be written? Is it wisdom literature or sci-fi? In methodical prose, it lays out an epic story that has intrigued many people who have come across it.
