"Not only is this 10,000-word epic poem equal to such philosophical works as the Bhagavad Gita, Tao te Ching and the Dhammapada, it stands above them in staying closer to its original meaning. Tordoff has successfully retained the earlier, rich, poetical writing style while making the teaching more accessible with its simplicity. Every library, and those interested in the philosophy of spirituality, would benefit by having O Lanoo! on their shelves." -Foreword Magazine "This book distills in beautiful, poetic language, the Ancient Wisdom teachings on how the Universe began. It also tells of the time when the gods lived on Earth, and how the Spirit of God came to live in Man. It follows the twin strands of evolution, in Spirit and Matter, as the Ages of Lemuria and Atlantis gave way to our present Age. Delicate line drawings by Nina O'Connell add to the eloquence of these explanations. O Lanoo! is indeed a book for anyone on a spiritual path." -Cygnus Review "Inspirational, meditative and rich in meaning, the poem clothes timeless truths in clear, uncluttered garb and provides an eloquent picture of the spiritual landscape through which the seeker must travel. Gathering together some of the oldest tenets of various world traditions, O Lanoo! brings the seeker to that "secret doctrine" of an inner spiritual rebirth." -NAPRA ReVIEW "The book is an invaluable one for anyone seeking answers to many of the deep questions which all of us at some time or another in our lives necessarily ask. In the ordinary way we simply do not have the information to answer them satisfactorily. The author of this work has given us an immense amount of material to illuminate those normally dark places of our lives." -The High Country Theosophist
