5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful and Fascinating, September 19, 2001

By	"76trombones" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews

Tom Dongo does it again! He's in touch with every facet of one of America's most alluring places, the red rock country of northern Arizona. In tune with the pulse of the legends, myths and mysteries, you'll find out what lies off the beaten trail, up in the cliffs and perhaps even beneath the ground. This town with a history that spans from pioneers to UFO's is a place of healing and self-discovery, and Dongo conveys it in all of his books better than any other author who's fallen under the spell of this enchanting place of beauty.

2.0 out of 5 stars In a nutshell...literally, March 4, 2003

By	Julie Belczak "Julie" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although this book provides some information about Sedona, it simply touches upon each of the subjects without giving you anything tangible to use while you're there. Each of the sections leaves you craving more, which leaves me thinking that I would have been better of buying the more expensive, yet more informative and comprehensive books that are on Amazon.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Proper Word Is "Vortices", September 24, 2005

By	Penny Dreadful (Under Your Skin) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Because I'm an open-minded gal with a voracious curiosity for learning, I've read a couple books over the years that dealt with the supposed energy vortices in and around the city of Sedona, Arizona. The first book I found was back in college and it was by hypnotherapy guru Dick Sutphen, who, as I recall, cited Sedona as the one-time location of a colony of refugees from the continent (not an island but a whole continent, mind you) of Atlantis. And then there was this more recent work by author Tom Dongo. (Betcha that name got him beaten up a few times on the playground, huh?)

Here's my opinion: if people want to feel good about a pilgrimage to this New Age Mecca, then great, it's no more or less invalid than those of other faiths making a trip to a site germane to their convictions. But I feel that if there was something special going on around those red rocks, then it would seem to reason that the year-round residents of Sedona might manifest more abundantly than anyone else the powers the rocks bestow. Applying Tom Dongo's claims about the rock formations of Sedona being sites of earthly energy, then we should see the plants and trees of Sedona growing especially well, the children who spent their formative years there breaking all records in educational achievement, in their health and in their well-being. We should see fewer cases of depression, fewer stress-related ills, fewer colds, atypical longevity. If psychic powers are enhanced by being near the red rocks, then wouldn't we probably find more lottery winners coming from the environs of Sedona than anywhere else on earth? Just my two-cents worth on Sedona: a place of great physical beauty, where many a visitor and her money have parted company amid the Wicca-themed shops.
