5.0 out of 5 stars ANOTHER GREAT BOOK, February 18, 2005

By	L. Orellana "Pro-reader" (Long Island, New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book gives an insight to some of the patakis on Orishas. It is well written and organized. It explains the creation of earth by Obatala and Yemaya to the chaining of Olokun. The paths of ellegua and the final battle.

A must have for those who wish to know more patakis on orishas or just have an overall knowledge on them. omi-illari.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinante!!!!, February 1, 2009

By	L. Rojas Marrero "Lidice-Cuba" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Este es un libro fascinante. Me encanto el estilo en que la autora introduce a cada uno de los Orishas y los interrelaciona a cada uno de una manera tan perfecta, que despues de leer el libro es muy facil recordar a cada uno de los orishas y su papel en la naturaleza y la santeria. Excelente!!! Para aquellos que quieran un poco de historia de la Santeria y sus comienzos, este es el libro perfecto.
