Here are some books about elementals with reviews by experienced readers.

This short book by David Tame is a collection of encounters people have had with elementals in some shape or form. It is less a book about elementals and more about people's accounts.

There is some good teaching at the end from Mark Prophet of Summit Lighthouse who was well known to be a Master of elemental life. David himself does give some nice nuggets of information in the introduction - stuff you won't find elsewhere on the nature of elementals and the stuff they are made of. 

In the end its a delightful little book with quite a few gems and while the accounts seem genuine, some are a little on the light side in terms of detail and substance. I would have to think that there are more substantive accounts out there worth publishing.

I would like to comment on the drawings in the book depicting the accounts. They are by Damian Bland who I know from many years ago. He is a very talented artist and I was looking forward to his cartoon drawings. However I was disappointed in the quality of the artwork given how talented an artist he is. An opportunity missed, methinks.

This is a very interesting book for many reasons. The main thrust of the book is a series of interviews with Verena Stael von Holstein where she communicates with various types of elementals, mostly in the district she lives in. These include the house elemental Miller who is in charge of approx 15,000 elementals in the house and mill, according to the book.

These interviews are strange in tone and very mental. Whether this is as a result of the process whereby she receives the messages or her own consciousness filtering what the elementals are saying, it is hard to say. Certainly you don;t get the feeling that being an elemental is a joyous existence, something that shines thru virtually every other account of elemental life out there. So that for me is a downer in reading this book.

Having said that, there is a tremendous amount of factual information about the everyday life of various types of elementals. it makes for a fascinating read if somewhat totally mentally focussed. She communicates about paper and sand elementals, tree beings and elementals who look after the plumbing!

I do find at time that she loses her way and this may also be in part to do with the internviewer who asks some rather odd questions and to be honest doesn;t make the most of the access he has to elementals thru her. Also the book has various references to Rudolf Steiner which I found surprising until Ifound out she subscribes to Anthrosophy, Steiner;s movement which was very popular in Germany. This does taint somewhat the accuracy of what she says as the elementals apparently are Steiner followers as well based on their words! So buyer beware - it is a fascinating mental exercise and you can learn alot but beware the inaccuracies.
