A journalist's report on the existence of guardian angels. A 6-month reign on French bestseller list. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is written with humor, eloquence, journalistic perspective/restraint, and passion. After an inexplicable escape from what might have been a fatal shooting on the L.A. freeway, Mr. Jovanovic began on a journey to investigate whether angels do in fact exist. He approaches it with the experience and restraint of a professional journalist, which he is. He looks at Near Death Experiences (the famous tunnel with light at the end etc.), interviews the woman who made famous the 'stages of dying', and Georgette Faniel, a stigmatist who some believe is a living saint; the book explores such diverse topics as Medjugorje, Padre Pio, apparitions of angels and The Virgin Mary; and yet never gets syrupy or precious. In fact, it manages to be all the more powerful reading due to its step back from the topics. Friends gave me a copy of this book and I was amazed by it; it's very quiet in tone, yet not without humor, and explains itself very well. The reader goes on the journey to discover whether angels exist, right along with the author, yet at the end you don't feel pushed toward any conclusion but your own. I highly recommend this book to everyone, not just those who already believe in such things as these. (Oh ! PS, if you net-search on this book title you will find its author's own website, which has more about the book, including a the first chapter available to read online for free).
This Book Changed My Life

This book is so real and well written that I would recommend it to all, whether they be skeptics or well on their spiritual path. The author who was admittedly a skeptic himself, has left no stone unturned as he presents both his personal experiences and those well researched. I found his chapter on Georgette Faniel, the present day bride of christ, particularly inspiring.
Fascinating!

This book is a fascinating journey of topics well beyond guardian angels. Jovanovic covers significant accounts of NDE (near death experience) and mystics (this part gets a little creepy!). Impossible to put down, a GREAT read! This book is an absolute page turner and will leave you hungry for more. The French to English translation and editing leave a little to be desired, but the content more than makes up for it. BUY THIS BOOK! YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY!
Much research into the existence of Angels.

This book was hard to put down. A lot of detail and research into the reality of the existence of Angels. A little on the religious side only because of some of the documentation necessary to prove the existence of Angels. Great Reading!
An unforgettable experience. Mès compliments!
