After Life: Answers from the Other Side

I have read each and every review on this book and took everyone's words into consideration. I just finished the book myself and have to say I truly enjoyed it. Some of the reviews on this site attack Mr. Edward as a medium and as a person and it is clear that those reviews are by people who have not picked up the book (although they claim to have read the book in one sitting). This book took me through the process and helped me have a little more faith in people, life and the after life. After Life has something for everyone from the reading with Aaliyah's mother (which is an amazing chapter in my opinion as I was and still am a huge Aaliyah fan) to personal stories of Mr. Edward's family. I have been to seminars, watched the show, seen t.v. specials, gone to his offical website and read articles about Mr. Edward and his work but nothing brings you closer to his gift then this book! Everyone has an opinion and the right to voice it but my advise to those who sit here and bash Mr. Edward and his line of work...DON'T HOLD SUCH STRONG OPINIONS ABOUT THINGS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! Everyone in this world should be able to put thier faith into something or someone and after reading AFTER LIFE I know where my faith is placed. Love Mr. Edward or hate him, After Life is a wonderful book and can help anyone through the healing process...all you need is a little faith and an open mind.

In 'After Life', we see the profound insights of a truly gifted author. Every word is charged with energy and beauty. Mr Edward has the unique ability to demystify esoteric concepts without diminishing their truth. A life-long learner and teacher, the author's clarity of vision commands respect. His 'journey' was recently revealed in a spellbinding interview with Jay Leno, during which Mr Edward epitomized his philosophy in this beautifully simple sentence: "Jay, I live inside my head, which explains why I'm always behind with the rent." And to the sceptics who cynically contend that talking with the dead is arrant nonsense, let me introduce you to the accountants over at Paramount. You WILL believe.

I found the book a quick and easy read. Nothing profound. What I came away with was his interesting proposition that not only are we becomming more and more aware of the Other Side but we are accepting communication with it. What we once thought of as remarkable is becoming unremarkable. Perhaps this mind set will enable us to re-think death (or our fear of it). A good book. It got me thinking about and then talking to my best friend who passed over three years ago. It will be interesting to see if she hears and answers....

In this, John's latest book, he again "converses" with his reader as if he were a good friend just having an after dinner conversation. His style is honest, warm and friendly...always with a good dose of (New York) humor. Always true to the "process," John explains his work, his experiences and the messages to others from the other side. Following him "on the road," he explains how the messages from the other side are the same, yet individual, to each person...no matter where they live or what language they speak. And to further add to the reader's sense of not being alone in their own feelings and experiences, John talks openly about his own personal life. If you believe in the "process," you'll finish the book (all too soon) and feel uplifted and enriched for the opportunity to share the spiritualism, love, honesty and teaching that John so freely shares with anyone wanting to hear his message. If you are a skeptic, you may still question, but you'll still ask yourself, "but, what if?" A cynic? You still won't find anything to discredit John, his work, and the process he shares.Thank you, again, John for opening so much of your life, experiences and beliefs with so many, at a time when it is greatly needed and increasingly sought after. Once again, will look forward to your next book in 2004!
