Dave Carpenter Peak Performance Show Here is what the editor at iUniverse wrote: The novel is a unique, enlightening, cute idea -- a fiction/fantasy method of introducing the art of Buddhist meditation. It offers a unique mix of personal experience (the author plays herself), Buddhist teachings, and fantasy with a cat, en route to freeing oneself from the 'ordinary mind' -- hindered by clinging, anger, sleepiness, restless and doubt -- and settling into the Buddha mind of wisdom. The plot line is outstanding. This is a well written, captivating story that is sure to engage readers. This book is a winner
