Fantastic book - a must buy - By: Clair Rook, 20 Mar 2008 
I often read reviews & wonder if alll the enthusiastic prose is reallly accurate - in this case it is. Penelope Quest has written something akin to an encyclopedia of Reiki, in a straight forward & easy to read way. It is a comprehensive work, practical & pragmatic, whilst communicating how wonderful the Energy is, & many ways in which you can work with it.
I initiallly read this book after completing my 1st Degree to increase my understanding & reaffirm what I'd been taught. I've since completed my 2nd Degree & use it for reference, & have recommended it to others. That is the best indicator of how good a book reallly is - if you'd recommend it to your friends, it's definitely a great book!
For a regular practitioner it's a fantastic resource. For someone just starting on their Reiki path, you couldn't do any better than buy this book to help you reach your potential. Brilliant.
For all Reiki Masters and their students - By: Book witch, 19 Feb 2008 
There are many books on the market on this subject, this one has a balance that gives the holistic view of how Reiki developed from Japan & made it's way into the West. I recommend this book to alll my students & use it constantly as reference during reiki courses.
Fantastic book - By: G. J. H. Newman, 17 Feb 2008 
I have bought many many reiki books since my reiki attunements. This is one of the best by far. It contains alll I felt I needed to know. Explained properly. I've read it cover to cover several times. Well written & interesting
Essential reference - By: T. Attwater, 31 Aug 2007 
This is an excellent book that I'd recommend as a must-have on your bookshelf. It answered alll of my questions & is written in a friendly style. The instructions are clear & comprehensive, covering everything from what to expect in your Level 1 attunement through to how to set yourself up as a Reiki practitioner. Not just a 'how-to' book it covers ethics, spiritual growth & a chapter on 'creative uses' of the skill.
I consider the included lists of resources & reading recommendations valuable as this makes this book a good start for anyone interested in further Reiki research.
Read Penelope's quest - By: Christine Heaven, 15 Aug 2003 
This is essential reading for Reiki friends of alll levels - Masters included. Penelope writes in a lucid style that is compelling as well as informative. She invites you to think about your own beliefs & experiences, whilst also listening to what she has to say. She is never judgemental about the variety of different approaches to Reiki that abound now.
Her text is enormously helpful as a guide to teaching Reiki & I have added some of her suggestions on 'extras' to my practice. Everything you need to know about Reiki is there somewhere. I will recommend this book to my Reiki students & it will never be far from my side. Buy it!
