		Storyfest Review of New Books & Audios on Storytelling & Spirituality
		Because we publish books and audiotapes, we love to read and listen to other publishers' works in our field: storytelling, travel, mythology, folklore, legends, spirituality, teaching, pilgrimage, preaching, etc. Out of our research and reading comes this guide. We only review books that we can recommend to you. We simply do not review lesser quality books or tapes. These are all books that we keep in our personal library. All of these books can be purchased now, directly from amazon.com. The book reviews are listed in the sequence of their review date, with the most recent on top: 11.
