Summary: Subjective
Review: Theun Mares and Victor Sanchez are the only writers dealing with the Toltec that are credible. Castanada, much to his credit did attract attention to Toltec teachings..in fact, without Castanada, most likely none of the other books would exist. Castanada is a great writer, but fictional..Ken Eagle Feather has jumped on the bandwagon and also clamied that Don Juan was his teacher..his books are quite humorous. The Return of the Warriors is a useful book in terms of explaining the basic of Toltec thought. This is very important. There are tons of writers that are cashing in on the current interest in Toltec thinking at this time and most of the so called teachers are just bulk writers seeing the opportunity for a quick buck. This author is genuine in his treatment of this subject. It does become overwhelming when the world is full of Naguals and some of them are not the real thing...I feel this man is genuine.

Summary: Amazing
Review: Theun Mares' books are amazing. I don't understand the negative criticism by some readers below, but then we do always see in others what we don't want to see in ourselves, don't we? These reviews are the best example for it.
In the end of the day you will have to read the books yourself. Why would you belief someone else's judgment? Do you feel drawn to this book?
I read it and it changed my life forever.

Summary: Casteneda Translated By A New Age Mystic
Review: This book was written as a "doing", not as a "not-doing". If you want to add to your "inventory", read this book.

Summary: Freedom from social conditioning
Review: This is a practical book that emphasises the importance of personal knowledge. Toltec concepts are presented clearly and concisely. Despite its uncompromising message, the author's sense of humour is evident. The book provides practical techniques for freeing ourselves from the debilitating effects of social conditioning. It inspired me to examine more deeply the futility of searching for meaning within traditional social mythology. I highly recommend this book to those who are serious about transforming their lives.

Summary: Not another one.....
Review: Toltec knowledge my....... eye! Look at Theun's web-site, and you'll see the egotistic (hence non-Toltecian) views of the author; He even claims that he's better than Castaneda, more "pure". What I would like to know is, who is the author's source for this "Toltec" knowledge? Carlos Castaneda says that he got his knowledge from a "descendant" of the Toltecs, don Juan and his group. However, Theun doesn't reveal his source. How can Theun honestly claim that this is "Toltec" knowledge?

Summary: What a privilege.
Review: What a privilege that Theun Mares is now disclosing the Toltec teachings through his series of books. Through his books, Mr. Mares provided me with a set of tools, which through consistent application in my life, are gradually but surely changing my life. Where before I was growing more cold and detached, and wondering if my life would ever have a sense of meaning and purpose, my heart is now opening bit by bit. There are no gimmicks, no quick fixes, just hard work applying simple tools over a lifetime.I was initially drawn to the Toltec teachings through the works of Carlos Castaneda. At that point in my life, I was fascinated by the supernatural and the thought that there were alternate realities that could be experienced. But though the Warrior's Path as presented in those teachings brought many benefits into my life, the sense of fulfillment was never there. Something about all the magical stuff just seemed to still leave me empty inside. Mr. Mares' presentation of the Toltec teachings are grounded in real life, daily life, and I'm learning that that is where the real magic occurs. The magic of changing oneself.
