I have just collected my copy of this from the bookshop.
I will share a few thoughts (nothing as important as a "book review") later when I have finished reading it.
I'm sure that quite a few of you would have read this also.

I have finished that in two sittings.
I found it to be great for a beginner, and it explained a lot of the system. I now have more pegs to hang ideas from - the new terminology and structure had me a bit confused before reading this book.
Very helpful

This book is by far the best overview of Dzogchen available in the English language if you ask me.

The sharing of the Dharma is a beautiful thing
I'm sure there is someone who will be overcome with generosity and share the teachings with me.
I know they will,
won't they?

Due to the kindness and generosity of others, I started reading "The Crystal" last night
All I can say so far...
What a gem!

It is a wonderful book, I would have to say that it made an incredible impression upon me when I read it.
