All of which is to say that In the Shadow of the Buddha makes for an entertaining read if approached as a piece of moderately well-written paranormal adventure fiction; but serious history of Tibet or examination of China's human rights record in the country it is not. Readers searching for the latter are advised to look elsewhere (Tragedy in Crimson springs to mind), but those looking for an accessible introduction to popular Tibetan Buddhism that hasn't been sanitized for western tastes could do worse.
