Reviews:
Tara is not just a heroine willing to face the supernatural trials of the goddess Inanna, she is my hero. Through this book, I learned so many things I will use when supporting family, friends and clients through the kinds of challenges that always leave me feeling tongue tied and hopelessly inept. Just as important, I have gained confidence in facing my own mortality as it arises through circumstances that offer the gift of transformation whenever we, like Tara, embrace the deeper wisdom of life, with all its imperfections, challenges, and, most importantly, intense moments of beauty every step along the way.

Having gone through cancer myself, I can very much relate to Tara’s journey, especially about coming out whole on the other side. This is a book worth reading!
