Written by Mike Williams, Follow the Shaman’s Call is a very accessible book written for the UK market and is recommended reading for anyone wanting to explore the foundations of shamanism.
It’s strapline is ‘An Ancient Path for Modern Lives’, a path which the author portrays with authenticity and a rare depth of research. Within its pages he covers topics ranging from making your power animal feel at home to preparing for your own death. Most subject areas are only lightly covered however the clarity and simplicity of the approach really helps to cover off the basics of the modern day shamanic practitioner.
I particularly enjoy the evocative story tellings of our shamanic ancestors. The author portrays these scenes with such vigor and colour that I often dip into the book simply to immerse myself in the chapter introductions.
