Customer Rating:
Summary: entertaining collection of stories--but still no Pot Stories
Comment: This is Krassner's third collection of drug stories, to go along with his collection of marijuana stories (Pot Stories for the Soul) and LSD stories (Psychedelic Trips for the Mind). This is a good collection of tales about experiences with magic mushrooms, ecstasy, peyote, mescaline, THC, opium, cocaine, ayahuasca, belladonna, ketamine, PCP, STP, "toad slime," and others. The chapters on magic mushrooms and ayahuasca are pretty good-sized collections of interesting stories; many of the others are quite small. There are only a few that have quite the humor value of many of the stories in Pot Stories for the Soul, but I think this volume is a better collection than Psychedelic Trips for the Mind.
