Dannion Brinkley's two previous books (Saved by the Light & At Peace in the Light) were fascinating and inspirational. They remain on my permanent bookshelf.
This one, however, just doesn't measure up. After reading the first half I just gave up and browsed through the last half looking for something of meaning. I couldn't find any.
This reader came away thinking that the author had certainly "jumped the shark" and changed from a sincere teller of an amazing true spiritual story to one who has latched on to his newfound fame with both hands and doesn't want to let go. The story of the first two books is re-told in a way that just screams "Look at me! See how fabulous I am!"
The "Lessons" are typical New Age feel-good psychobabble, found in any number of random self-help books.
The author needs to be reminded to let go of the pride in his fame and told to get back to his roots. It's the story that is important, not the person who tells it!
