Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Iron has its own gravity, carries its own justification. We opened it and beheld it in all its other-wordly simplicity and it was as though our lives reorganized around a mysterious object from a foreign world--as though the obelisk from 2001 A Space Odyssey had suddenly appeared in our kitchenette: the seed crystal to a more profound existence. You hold it by the handles and history runs through you: vast hordes of humanity rumbling across the steppes of Eurasia in an ancient world, a newer world, when the magic of the earth was being channeled for the first time by the first seekers, pushing back against the darkness from their rude huts, animals restless and growling outside. An iron void, deep and dark, mutely asserting its weight and heft, blackly bright and shimmering with unspoken power-Feminine? Masculine? Both? But an expressive and absolute assertion of human capacity; an early and mysterious child of our creative energy, we the children of Cain. Anyway, it makes great popcorn.
