- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 May 2024I first bought the Padre Pio book: Pray, Hope and Don’t Worry, and was so inspired by it that I wanted to read more about this wonderful Saint. This book goes into a lot more detail about this wonderful Saint - his life, experiences and his precious spiritual gifts. Wonderful book!!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 October 2020This is an authoritative and well written account of the extraordinary life of Padre Pio; (and not withstanding the extraordinary, and deeply spiritual wold that we are drawn in to), is the author's ability to keep the reader's feet on the ground, which I am sure is what Padre Pio would have wanted.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2022I though I knew everything about Padre Pio .............. until read this book! A MUST for the Padre Pio devotee.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 April 2019Faith inspiring and factually accurate. This book inspires devotion and prayer for all committed to seeking the face of Christ in their daily lives.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 May 2019A good warts-and-all account of an extraordinary man. Legends around him were stated objectively leaving the reader to draw his own conclusions
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 May 2019I bought this biography as a present for a friend and have given it to her. She expressed her delight at the present. We both have a high regard for this saint, and I know from previous versions of the book it is a very good read.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 October 2019Very interesting reading
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 February 2021Very happy with this book.

This is an absolutely beautiful story that is inspiring. It was so good to hear about a saint and learn about his life. My friend let me know that this is an unofficial saint of Italy and I wished to learn about him. It is an unforgettable book that I enjoyed on both kindle and audible platforms.

BuyerReviewed in Italy on 10 July 20174.0 out of 5 stars Da leggere con oculatezza.
Scritto da un Luterano, la metodologia applicata è quella dell'indagine storicistica che presuppone la stretta verifica dei fatti. Ma l'incommensurabile grandezza del Santo è tale da convincere anche un Luterano la cui scelta è quella di subordinare la fede alla necessaria verifica di fatti che devono essere evidenti e documentati. Manca quel senso di stupore e devozione di fronte all'esperienza mistica che invece permea altre biografie di Padre Pio, tuttavia mi sento assolutamente di consigliarne la lettura perché a mio parere l'importanza del libro sta proprio nel fatto che sia stato scritto da parte per così dire "avversa" che non può fare altro che inchinarsi di fronte al mistero glorioso manifestatosi tramite la vita dell'umile frate cappuccino.
AnonymReviewed in Germany on 6 May 20255.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book <3
A wonderful book full of stories about the life of beloved Padre Pio. A must-read for everyone who wants to learn more about this great saint <3
