Book Review: A rival to the Dalai Lama
Summary: 3 Stars
I had never even heard of the 17th Karmapa until I spied this book on a shelf in Darmsala, India. I am fascinated with the Tibetan culture, and found the book very interesting. The writing style is not the best, but this book unlocks a whole new saga about Tibetan leadership. The young Karmapa is a very fascinating character, and his historical reincarnation background challenges the Dalai Lama for the religious throne of Tibet. Overall, I enjoyed the book, and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in Tibetan culture. Dancing on the Edge of an Endangered Planet
