“In a world gone mad I found the gentle storytelling of Daniel Allison akin to a big hug.
In the stories and myths of old we can mine out great wisdom and understanding of the human condition without the psychobabble of our modern age. A lovely listen, I recommend it :)”

So relaxing yet thought provoking, although as of yet my take aways from each story hasn’t even been close to Daniel’s. The music makes me want to host a banquet and have turn...”Read full review »

“Daniel tells stories in two parts: global tales that are magical and exciting, and the stories from his life. I love coming home after a long day and being swept away into different worlds with many different perspectives, as well as cheering for him in the audience of his first Muay Thai fight!...”Read full review »
