Book Reviews of The Secret School: Preparation for Contact
Book Review: As usual I'm left wanting to read more!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished "Secret School" and I'm left wanting the experience of hearing those words to continue. Mr. Strieber has moved from a chronicler of his experiences to a teacher for all of us. Like a word on the tip of my tongue, I could almost begin to grasp the emotional journey Strieber has taken. I must admit to some jealousy that he has had this incredible experience, but I'm comforted that he believes we can all discover these depths in ourselves.As with his other books, both fiction and non-fiction, I highly recommend "Secret School." I was particularly taken with his internal evidence that produced unconciously the complex and beautiful work "Nature's End."
You will never regret time spent reading anything written by Whitley Strieber.
Summary of The Secret School: Preparation for Contact
In the new book, Strieber returns to his youth to recount a summer he spent in a " secret school" in the woods near his childhood home. It was there that he learned the nine lessons that forever changed his life and prepared him for the chilling events narrated in his previous three books. His recollection was triggered by his first encounter in 1985, but for years still remained half-hidden in shadow. Only now has he begun to reconstruct these childhood summers spent in secret adventure, these summers that planted the seeds for his adult encounters with alien visitors.Jumping between a child's-eye view and an adults hindsight, Strieber deftly weaves an adventure that stretches across decades, landing (or rather, lifting off) at the place his new life started when he met extraterrestrials. Strieber fans everywhere will not want to miss his haunting odyssey into the past and the startling new insights these memories provide about the meanings of his alien encounters and the future destiny of mankind.
