Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Lucid Dreaming was a tremendous disappointment. Trite and repetitious anecdotes are sprinkled throughout. Reference is made to disproven psychological theories. Most of the book is filler and could have been reduced to a third the size if anything of real substance was left behind.

It’s a bit breezy and tries maybe a bit too much to be be funny, but there’s genuine warmth and real practical information here. You can use it to learn more about lucid dreaming and get a sense of some of the challenges and opportunities it offers. I am sure I’ll be returning to this. It’s really a workbook of sorts, and that’s why I’ve given it a good solid workmanlike rating. As with any workbook, it’s not a page turner or read at one sitting kind of book. You read it and show more process the info and make note of the exercises and return to them as needed.

My local library system has it, and Audible at this writing includes it with membership.

This is a topic into which I’ll be inquiring further for sure. show less

it was a bit dull and i could see why i would think that way since i do not deal with these issues though it was informing on those issues and provided novelty and for those reasons i feel it has regard.
