Rasmussen's retelling of the folk tales gets five stars - bizarre and fascinating tales - of interest in and of themselves, and of special interest to anyone who has practical interests in shamanism or indigenous spirituality.

But this facsimile edition - at least the volume I received - is only about one quarter of the original book. The table of contents goes way past the page numbers where the text just ends (in the middle of a story). So the publisher gets only one star - what happened to the rest of the book? I'm grateful that at least some of them were republished at all, but disappointed that there weren't more!

Apparently someone received an incomplete version of this book back in 2008.

This is not our version and I feel it is unfortunate that negative comments about other versions end up under our name.

I am the publisher of Timeless Classic Books. I make every attempt to make each and every book I create as lovely, inside and out, as I possibly can.

I am only giving this five stars because it seems I must rate the book with stars in order to comment and I think it is only fair to counteract a negative comment re: my book that belongs on the book's page that was incomplete.
