Heaven's Gate

This book was simply fascinating. Rather academic in tone and listening to it on audible did mean I was limited in what I could digest and comprehend. Nevertheless this book (recommended to me from glen Washington's 10 part podcast on heavens gate) gave me a rich and academic history of the infamous cult. This book is a staple text on this cult and it deeply descriptive on the culture and social background of the group, the use of technology by the group and the context and explanation for the eventual suicide and demise of the group in 1997. This book gives serious food for thought on this cult, on their mass suicide and on their humanity and beliefs. While I couldn't give this book 5 stars as in audible form this book was too dense to digest. I am hoping to acquire it in physical copy and see if my rating goes up when I have more time to comprehend Zeller's interesting perspective. Overall a very informative and fascinating book.
