Publisher Description
At the start of his career, Marc Allen never took a business course; he simply made what he calls “a sloppy, disorganized, lazy, and intuitive search through the books of Western magic.” There he found the tools that took him from being a poverty case to a multimillionaire and helped him create one of the most successful independent publishers in the country. In The Magical Path, he presents these tools — effective, easy-to-apply practices, including affirmation, visualization, and guided meditation — that can change the course of readers’ lives in miraculous ways, as they did his. Because these tools are so simple and powerful, Allen calls them magic. But far from esoteric, they are tools anyone can use to achieve their dreams and goals.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Allen (The Millionaire Course) coasts through his newest, and it's disappointing. The co-founder of New World Library strings together quotes and passages from other people's work (for example, The Art of True Healing by Israel Regardie) as well as his own previous writings and recordings. Lots of authors write the same book over and over, but this one seems more obvious and less fresh. What could help is more storytelling and personal anecdotes; Allen has led a successful life. What he offers instead is a series of affirmations that will be familiar to everyone who knows something of New Thought and law-of-attraction teachings. His meditations and prayers form a good core of self-help practices, but would probably work better as a recorded presentation. His fans will like it, but this won't earn him new ones.
