Advantages: an easy intro to the other side
Disadvantages: erm, only that it's fictional!

...This is a fictional work based on the life and work of john Edward, a psychic from USA. He has been doing his work now, travelling over America and beyond, for many years but is becoming ever popular since his show aired on Living TV. For the die-hard fans of John Edward, this is a comforting fiction. Those poor souls who've only just discovered John will also find it an enticing read. I myself have read all but his new book and find "What If God Were The Sun" to be a relaxing and effortless read which flows from the start to an all too soon a finish. It's a brilliant intro into the fascinating world of John's work without being bogged down by tales of seminars and readings for those of you who find this tedious. I'd recommend this to people who know of John Edward's work and those who merely have an interest in what goes... Read review

...I found Bernard Knights books by accident whilst shopping in Tesco. Some books were on offer of 3 for £10.00. Being an avid reader I thought I'd give them a go even though I normally prefer horror espicially James Herbert. I'm really pleased that I did.

...This is one of John Grisham’s better known novels. The plot is fairly far-fetched, but Grisham manages to make it not only believable, but also scarily realistic. This is one of the ultimate conspiracy theories involving the US Government at the highest of levels. A young lawyer manages to do what no one else has, make the connection between the deaths of two Supreme Court Justices. Now the question is whether she can stay alive long enough to tell someone. This is written to the usual high standard you would expect of John Grisham, but the action is racier than in some of his other novels. This book had my imagination gripped from start to finish, although the ending is not what you’d expect. Worth a read if you enjoy conspiracy stories.... Read review
