Product Description
From Amazon
Looking back, John Edward now sees the early signs that he was destined to become an acclaimed psychic and medium. "There were times when I knew things I shouldn't have known," he writes. "Simple things like who was coming over, or who was on the phone." He knew events in family history that no one had told him about. He was inexplicably fascinated with television characters that possessed supernatural powers. He'd see auras around schoolteachers and hear voices that whispered true information in his mind. Eventually his gifts expanded into hearing the names of spirits "who'd gone to the other side." Finally, as a teenager Edward began to claim rather than question his psychic abilities and committed his life work to pursuing and learning about his gifts. Now that he has become a renowned medium (appearing on numerous talk shows, including Larry King Live), Edwards has written an entertaining "my life as a psychic" type of autobiography, packed with fascinating true stories. At the same time, Edward offers an engaging self-help book, teaching readers how to visit a medium and even showing seekers how they can recognize and develop their own psychic abilities. --Gail Hudson

From Publishers Weekly
It's easy to distrust those who claim to communicate with the dead, to dismiss them as charlatans who take advantage of the bereaved. Psychic medium Edward himself urges readers to "be skeptical, though not cynical." But it is not so easy to reject Edward's compelling tale of gradually accepting his psychic abilities (seeing auras, astro-traveling, premonitions) and acting as a messenger between spirits who have passed over to "the Other Side" and their loved ones left behind. With a college degree in public health and administration, and "rising within the ranks" of a large hospital, he finally gave in to the "constant yanking feeling" he had experienced since he was a boy. In several poignant stories of connecting people with their deceased family members, Edward tries "to demystify spirit communication" by explaining exactly what he sees, hears and feels during a "reading." The spirits, he says, speak to him in voices, sounds, images, sensations, smells, tastes and feelings, mostly in symbolic form (for example, a father who always signed things with the numeral "4" fills the psychic's head with images of golf swings?"fore"), to convey a message to loved ones. Usually, beyond identifying the senders in verifiable ways, the messages are simply that those who have passed on are all right and that "they're still with us." Coming off like James Van Praagh (Talking to Heaven) tempered with the down-to-earth appeal of Caroline Myss, Edward offers an intriguing collection of anecdotes that may not convince the cynical but that can both comfort and fascinate the merely skeptical.

An eye-opener...,
By
This review is from: One Last Time (Paperback)
I've always been skeptical of mediums and psychics, but, following the death of a family member, I picked up a copy of this book. Regardless of your beliefs about the subject matter, John Edward does detail some remarkable experiences. If Edward does what he claims (and it seems true), he has a supreme gift. This book is highly recommended, especially for those who have suffered a loss. If you are a skeptic, beware, because the book may change your mind.

Wow!,

This review is from: One Last Time (Paperback)
I think the ultimate testament to how good this book is is that it made an skeptic believe John Edwards is telling the truth. I have a hard time trying to reconcile my religious doubts with my belief in the stories in this book, but I did believe every one. I couldn't put the book down. The stories are just so compelling and heart-breaking, I cried through at least half of them. I'm sad now that John's TV show is off the air. When I see him do a reading on one of the audience members, I can tell that it's real for those people and that they are not acting. I highly recommend this book.

One Last Time Again and Again,

This review is from: One Last Time (Paperback)
As a Psychic Medium this is one of my favorite books to recommend. Unlike so many metaphyscial books that reflect a very serious tone,John's upbeat approach in contrast makes it a delight to read. Not only does he confirm that life does in fact exist beyond death but also he reminds his readers of the importance of connecting with our loved ones while still on earth.
