"Not since Terence McKenna have I read a book on entheogens that was so thoroughly entertaining, well-researched and informative - and with a mind-blowing hypothesis at its core ... So if your looking for a book that skillfully weaves together mysticism, cutting-edge science, and far-out storytelling, Tryptamine Palace is 'highly recommended'."

- High Times Magazine

“James Oroc writes about wresting spiritual insights from the mind-storms catalyzed by psychedelics, and along the way wrestles with his culture and his role in it. His principal drug ally, 5-MeO-DMT, is not easy to use well, but Oroc emerges grounded and inspired with tales worth sharing.”

- Rick Doblin, founder and president of MAPS
(Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies)

“Tryptamine Palace is destined to be the seminal study of 5-MeODMT, just as The Spirit Molecule personifies DMT and My Problem Child evokes LSD.”

- Andrew Sewell, M.D., LSD cluster-headache researcher

“With this book, Oroc has proved that the impossible can in fact be put into words. WOW indeed! A must-have for any serious psychonaut on (arguably) the most important subject matter of all time.”

- Dimitri Djanbani, Moderator of http://dmt.tribe.net

“A gripping account of a mind transformed by the powerful psychoactive 5-MeO-DMT struggling to understand its unexpected conversion from atheist to true believer. Oroc fuses hard data and engaging speculations to fire the imagination. Tryptamine Palace is ‘Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride’ for entheogen aficionados, where the firsthand experience of God may be just a toke away.”

- Jon Hanna, mindstates.org

“If DMT is the ‘Spirit Molecule,’ then 5-MeO-DMT certainly qualifies as the ‘God Molecule’ as illustrated in this highly significant contribution to entheogenic literature. The immediate opening to full God consciousness that 5-MeO-DMT occasions demands careful attention by all those interested in spiritual states of consciousness, entheogenic experience, and the true nature of reality. Oroc’s book is a great beginning to the fascinating exploration that awaits us with 5-MeO-DMT.”
