This book, I feel, tries to show its great wisdom in being nearly unreadable, and by taking the "One True Way" road, can be very intimidating to the reader. I assure you, I know many MANY Druids in both the UK and the USA who have either done quite well NOT reading this book (the book isnt available in the UK without special order), or found it laughable. I do not know any druids, personally, that took this book seriously.
