Having enjoyed this book I began to read Crossing Over, hoping for more of the same, and the most recent book does, indeed contain some heartwarming and impressive accounts, but they are few and far between. What I wish I had known before I bought the book was that it is largely a history of John Edward's mediumship and the TV show itself. The former is documented in more detail in One Last Time and the latter is covered in too much detail here. I found myself rushing through the first few chapters because I'd heard almost all of it before and then searching through the rest for something more compelling than accounts of meetings with media people.
I don't wish to be misunderstood; I greatly admire John Edward's work and having seen his show and having read One Last Time I am comforted by a belief that my family is looking over me. However, John Edward is no writer and so has not suceeded in making the story of his career compelling reading. The material of One Last Time is fascinating enough in itself to make problems of style or structure irrelevant. However, this is not the case with Crossing Over which should have been more skillfully edited.
So, to anyone who, like a lot of us in the UK, has seen Crossing Over on Living (isn't that ironic?) and wants to read more, I would recommend One Last Time rather than Crossing Over the book, unless the history of the show is what you're after.
I enjoy the fact that he does not hold anything back - "what I get, you get", and you really do get a warm feeling reading the stories of the people who's lives he has touched. He has a fresh attitude that makes you feel at ease with your beliefs and encourages you to stay somewhat cynical.
This book is a revellation to all those people out there who, like me, have been looking for someone who can convey messages in a 'real' sense, who holds nothing back and who does not back away when the person in session with him doesn't understand a message that is being put to them. I watch 'Crossing Over' at every opportunity and feel that this book is a wonderful example of the work of John Edward.
To all those people out there who have been searching for that person who makes you think 'wow!' - John Edward is the 'one'. A truly fantastic & compelling read that I would recommend to everyone. AAA+++
I only wish that the man himself would come over to England to enable us Brits to participate in the experience.
