"This work is a contribution to the nonfiction paranormal genre and one that needs to be read." (Edwin F. Becker, author of

True Haunting)

Members Reviews:

Misguiding title but still an interesting subject

Misguiding title to say the least, expected a lot more of the paranormal. interesting case but somewhat arrogant author.

Skilled Narration, Interesting Story

Any additional comments?

This book is written like a literature review on the house on Lindley Street - the author, a professional magician in an effort to debunk the rumors about the haunted house on Lindley Street in Bridgeport, CT, draws his content from news articles about the home and first hand reports from documented police reports, paranormal research, and taped interviews with paranormal investigators, police, clergy, and the residents living in the home, the Goodin family, as the events actually unfolded over 40 years ago. It seems very scientific, not at all sensational. At first I didn't know what to think of this as it wasn't your standard atmospheric story of a haunted house - no mood music, no inflection to heighten what should be scary or supernatural... just Stephen Thorne's detached, neutral tone. I think he did Mr. Hall's book a great service with his excellent narration. If you want a neatly wrapped up story, you will be sorely disappointed. William Hall lays out what was available to him for his readers and leaves it to them to draw conclusions about the extraordinary and supernatural phenomena occurring in the Lindley Street home.

SPOILER ALERT:

My favorite passage was not one of the countless supernatural events occurring in the home, but rather, the conversation recorded between Ms. Goodin and the paranormal investigator who was trying to convince them they should all seek counseling as living in the house was clearly traumatizing for them. She wasn't having it and no amount of logic and empathetic reasoning could convince her that maybe they should give it a try. I don't know how Mr. Thorne was able to keep a straight face and continue narrating this particular passage in a completely neutral tone. I would have been compelled to give the voices character and inflection.

heavy on the details

Very detailed recap of this very unusual series of events. This is the first book I've listened to about paranormal activities. The author did a good job of gathering information from a wide variety of sources.

Superb!!!

Would you listen to The Worlds Most Haunted House again? Why?

I've already listened twice, and read in hardcopy three times!

What did you like best about this story?

The dark journalism kept me on the edge of my seat!

Title: Witchcraft: A Beginner's Guide to Wiccan Ways

Author: Sebastian Collins

Narrator: Peter L. Delloro

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 4 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-22-16

Publisher: Dennis C Boylan II

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Thought

Publisher's Summary:

This book contains information to help you begin a Wiccan life. It contains pertinent information on the basic concepts, principles, and practices of Wicca as well as information about witches.

Wicca is a term used to represent witchcraft. It is derived from the word wicce, an Anglo-Saxon term that means "to have wisdom to bend or manipulate". Originally Wicca implied a male witch while wicce implied a female witch. However, as the years have passed, Wicca has become accepted as a term representing both males and females who can bend or manipulate.

Wicca is commonly used to replace the term witchcraft, which is defined in various ways. For instance, many people in the past referred to witchcraft as an individual's ability to harness supernatural powers specifically for the practice of black magic. As such, witchcraft was viewed in the same manner as magic and sorcery.

Publisher's Summary:

Everything You Need to Know About Wicca, from Best-Selling Wicca Author Lisa Chamberlain

It is estimated that there are over one million practicing Wiccans around the world today. But what is it that has made these people turn their back on the formal, structured religions that encompass the majority of the Western world?

In our modern, high-pressured world, many of us fail to take notice the sheer beauty of the natural world surrounding us. In many ways, this is a travesty: the world we live in today seems so completely distant from the one our ancestors lived in, a world where humans and nature were at one, their existence intertwined in the natural cycles of life.

Wicca is a new way of life, a religion that takes you back to a more simple time, before the invention of the high-tech gadgetry we see all around us. You will learn to live and appreciate the natural world that surrounds you, celebrating the intricate changes in the seasons and everything they bring - from the bounties of the summer harvest, to the cold and darkness of the winter months, as Mother Nature rests in preparation for the next explosive cycle of life that Spring brings. Wicca is a re-incarnation of the very earliest religions, long pre-dating Christianity. Wiccans celebrate and share many of the same beliefs that these early people held and try to embrace their way of life, all while remaining fully-functional in today's modern world.

Getting Started as a Wiccan

If you're sold on this new, exciting, peaceful way of life, that's great! Good to have you onboard. Unfortunately, and despite this commitment, this is where many people get stumped. One of the biggest questions I hear would-be Wiccans ask: "How do I start practicing Wicca?" The truth is, there is no right answer.

Title: Science and the Akashic Field

Subtitle: An Integral Theory of Everything

Author: Ervin Laszlo

Narrator: Tom Pile

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 52 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-07-16

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 28 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Thought

Publisher's Summary:

Mystics and sages have long maintained that there exists an interconnecting cosmic field at the roots of reality that conserves and conveys information, a field known as the Akashic record. Recent discoveries in vacuum physics show that this Akashic field is real and has its equivalent in science's zero-point field that underlies space itself. This field consists of a subtle sea of fluctuating energies from which all things arise: atoms and galaxies, stars and planets, living beings, and even consciousness. This zero-point Akashic field is the constant and enduring memory of the universe. It holds the record of all that has happened on Earth and in the cosmos and relates it to all that is yet to happen.

In Science and the Akashic Field, philosopher and scientist Ervin Laszlo conveys the essential element of this information field in language that is accessible and clear. From the world of science, he confirms our deepest intuitions of the oneness of creation in the integral theory of everything. We discover that, as philosopher William James stated, "We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep."

Members Reviews:

Length: 6 hrs and 26 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-06-16

Publisher: Michelle S. Fondin

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 33 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Thought

Publisher's Summary:

Ever wondered why you're feeling out of balance, stressed-out, sick, and exhausted but still can't sleep? Western medicine often ignores the underlying issues that can lead to fatigue, illness, and disease, but there is a way to revitalize your body and mind without drugs or dangerous side effects. Ayurveda, the "science of life", is a complete wellness system that includes all that we associate with medical care - prevention of disease, observation, diagnosis, and treatment - as well as self-care practices that are generally absent from Western medicine. This truly holistic approach considers not just diet, exercise, and genetics but also relationships, life purpose, finances, environment, and past experiences.

In this thorough and practical book, Michelle Fondin guides you gently through self-assessment questions designed to zero in on your needs and the best practices for addressing them, such as eating plans, addiction treatment, detoxification, and techniques for improving relationships. She outlines steps you can take, with minimal cost, to heal common ailments such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, excess weight, anxiety, and depression. These time-tested methods for body, mind, and spirit wellness offer benefits to anyone at any age.

This is a Workbook

If you could sum up The Wheel of Healing with Ayurveda in three words, what would they be?

You need to have a hard copy to follow along.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

I didn't get there. If I did, I was asleep.

Would you be willing to try another one of Michelle S. Fondins performances?

Fran Drescher reading Tropic of Cancer would be more appealing to me personally.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

". ... DON'T forget your workbook!"

Poor recording

An AMAZING life changing book! Everyone should read it.

The recording skipped, screeched and cut out occasionally.

Poor sound quality.

It sounds like this book is being read under water once you get to chapter 4.

It was ok, but title was misleading

I enjoyed listening to this book. I think it lacked information about Ayurveda, it had more information about personal growth and the writer's personal experience. The reason why I wanted to listen to this book was to learn more about Ayurveda and have more guidance as to what foods to eat, etc, but she only has one or two chapters on this. That being said she gives a good insight into what other life style choices people can make as to have a "better life", I found this ok, but a little boring, I am glad the book was short.

Brilliant!

Any additional comments?

Brilliant explanation of the Ayurvedic Lifestyle. I loved this book and have been able to implement many positive changes in my life style since reading it. Michelle does an amazing job with the audio, I definitely recommend it for everybody!

Title: Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini

Subtitle: The Transformative Power of Saturn, Chiron, and Uranus

Author: Barbara Hand Clow

Narrator: Angela Starling

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-16-15

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 65 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Thought

Publisher's Summary:

Revised and updated edition of the classic astrology text on predicting and navigating life crises.

In this updated edition of Liquid Light of Sex, renowned astrologer and spiritual teacher Barbara Hand Clow explores the connection between life crises in your 30s, 40s, and 50s and the key astrological passages of Saturn, Uranus, and Chiron in your birth chart. She explains how kundalini energy - the "liquid light of sex" that lies at the base of the spine - is activated during these planetary transits, rising through the chakras and triggering the process of spiritual emergency and, in many cases, a cascade of health, emotional, and relationship problems as well as extreme anxiety. She shows that by understanding these astrological transits, you can be prepared for turbulent periods and successfully navigate them by creatively channeling the spiritual fire of kundalini.

Clow provides astrological charts - now updated through 2050 for those born between 1930 and 2000 - detailing the cycles of Saturn, Uranus, and Chiron, so you do not need your birth chart to use this book. She explains how to use the charts to predict the onset and completion of each kundalini activation and corresponding crisis. She shares tools for individuals and therapists to cope with the intensity of spiritual emergency and too much fire energy, unblock the chakras, and integrate the power of kundalini for physical, emotional, and spiritual growth. Reflecting on 20 years of success stories since the book's initial publication, Clow presents a road map for using celestial cycles to navigate positively and productively in times of great life change.

Members Reviews:

Wow

Thank you Barbara Hand Clow for this book. This is a Master Teaching via the combining of layers of astrology, shamanic tradition, mythology, ancient goddess culture, new age concepts, Mayan lessons and esoteric wisdom to understand human growth and potential.

Downloadable PDF is incomplete

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The downloadable PDF is integral to using this audiobook. Extremely frustrating that it is incomplete and missing much of what we are asked to look up. Even more frustrating is that there is no way to contact Ms. Handclow from her website to ask for the full version.

Other than that, this is an incredibly eye opening book.

Great Content.

Barbara has produced an excellent resource for describing in detail major transformative times in our lives.

A little hard to follow

I was hoping for more info on midlife influence. There are a lot of strong opinions, and hard to follow references- but mostly it focuses on mid-30 to 40. This was not particularly useful to a what I consider mid-life and the Chiron return. Also, I felt there were a lot of expectations concerning infidelities - that kind of made me feel unnecessarily bad. Maybe I just wasn't evolved enough - but more alone time without kids and parents and other suggestions seem unattainable for many at mid-life. I sort of had to make myself finish this book.

Eye opening experience.

Valuable source of enlightened information. My outlook of life is forever changed. Food for higher consciousness.

Publisher's Summary:

Developing your spiritual eye and walking hand in hand with the supernaturally prophetic.

"Somehow, I was instantly in Heaven; I knew the room I was standing in was directly adjacent to the throne room of the Father," writes author James Maloney. From this exciting experience, shared in the first chapter, to the thrilling conclusion, The Panoramic Seer reveals realms and realities that most Christians don't even know exist!

Panorama is the seer's prophetic gifting that releases the miraculous. It is tied into five key elements: inheritance, humility, compassion, righteousness, and faith. These keys and much more are presented to you in a spiritually sensitive way - straight from the throne room of God.

You will hear the applause of Heaven when you operate as a panoramic seer. The only way to cultivate that kind of relationship with him is in the "secret place." The Panoramic Seer takes you to that special place and offers you the powerful Kingdom secrets that have sustained the move of God from generation to generation.

Insightful and Tangible

The Restoration of Love

James Malony focuses on the purpose of prophecy, intimate love for God and conveying His love for others. There are plenty of "how tos"as well, but I appreciated his perspective most.
