The second ring of power is a book by author Carlos Castaneda, published in 1979 by Pomaire. This book introduces us to a strange and hallucinatory world, where the sorcerer's apprentice, Carlos, travels through a setting of hills and houses with curious structures. Carlos faces characters such as Doña Soledad, a powerful witch, and the three little sisters, disciples of Don Juan.
Carlos Castaneda was a Peruvian-American writer, trained as an anthropologist. Starting in 1968, Castaneda published a series of books that describe alleged training in shamanism that he received under the tutelage of a Yaqui "Man of Knowledge" named Don Juan Matus. While Castaneda's work was accepted as factual by many when the books were first published, the character of Don Juan and the training he described is now generally considered to be fabricated and to have little relation to the actual cultural practices of the Yaqui. Castaneda's early writings featuring Don Juan were bestsellers with the general public, and are considered to be a significant influence on neoshamanism and the New Age movement more broadly.
