The book arrived today ... and it is gorgeous. Somewhere Eugene is smiling.

Back to reading ...

It's a great read. If you want to spend some quality time with Eugene, get this book.

Steve: insightful review, as always. I very much also like the book design, which serves the book's purpose admirably (as expressed in the essay therein: "How to read a magic book.")

In your review, you mentioned that you recommended that purchasers use their secret access "as soon as possible". Does that mean it's going away soon or is this a "you never know how long the on-line material will be available" situation?

[Steve Bryant]

I was simply joking. Books themselves seem to outlast technology, hence my mention of the now quaint phonograph record that was included with RK's first edition of Spirit Theater. That record was a brilliant idea, by the way. For some of us it was the first time to hear Eugene Burger's voice.

Copy that.

(After losing access to bunch of purchases when an on-line service went out of business, I'm excessively paranoid about virtual materials these days)

What/how many are the virtual materials, and can they be downloaded for storage onto a more permanent media? Or do they require they be played by a supplied app?

Hi, Robert: They are videos and audio recording of Mr. Burger (mostly performances). They can be downloaded and archived by purchasers of the book. No special player necessary. A list of the materials and instructions on how to access them are included in the book.
