I couldn't stop reading. Can you imagine an explorers guide to the universe? This is it. Not a guide to the best places to visit but a guide to creating your own journey and arriving at the unknown with a smile on your face. And a message of hope to all those who have ever been told "that just isn't possible"
If you are ready for a great adventure, this is the book for you!

I read this book in one sitting, which is most unusual for me and is testament to a genuinely fascinating text. 'What is Magic?' is a complex discussion of magic and consciousness and their intersections, weaving together strands of deeply divergent bodies of knowledge (history, anthropology, neuroscience, politics, psychoanalysis, ayurveda, archaeology, music, mythology...) to create a deeply countercultural but also deeply reader-affirming message. One of my favourite parts is Mor's assertion of 'the importance of seeing ourselves as creators'. As well as leaving this book understanding something of the author's unapologetically unique worldview, I feel I've left it understanding something more of my own.
