I tried to read some of his works and have my own opinion, which is, obviously, not a high one.
That's an odd thing to be angry with a contrary opinion.
re Castaneda, I've read many pieces on several forums about Carlos, and for the most part, I could care less about him. He has been described as being a scribe, and I'll go along with that.

The teachings are relevant, in my opinion, whereas the teachings of Mares are not, possibly because don Juan's teachings for the most part coincide with essential Zen, which for me, has been the most profound influence on my life.
