<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Sharing details of his out-of-body experience, in which he was transported from a realm of darkness and death to one of light through prayer, a former atheist explains the consequences of a life lived for self alone, and recounts how this experience led to his becoming a minister.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Not since Betty Eadie's <i>Embraced by the Light</i> has a personal account of a Near-Death Experience (NDE) been so utterly different from most others--or nearly as compelling.</b> <p/><b>This is a book you devour from cover to cover, and pass on to others. This is a book you will quote in your daily conversation. Storm was meant to write it and we were meant to read it. --from the foreword by Anne Rice</b> <p/> In the thirty years since Raymond Moody's <i>Life After Life</i> appeared, a familiar pattern of NDEs has emerged: suddenly floating over one's own body, usually in a hospital setting, then a sudden hurtling through a tunnel of light toward a presence of love. <i>Not so</i> in Howard Storm's case. <p/> Storm, an avowed atheist, was awaiting emergency surgery when he realized that he was at death's door. Storm found himself out of his own body, looking down on the hospital room scene below. Next, rather than going "toward the light," he found himself being torturously dragged to excruciating realms of darkness and death, where he was physically assaulted by monstrous beings of evil. His description of his pure terror and torture is unnerving in its utter originality and convincing detail. <p/> Finally, drawn away from death and transported to the realm of heaven, Storm met angelic beings as well as the God of Creation. In this fascinating account, Storm tells of his "life review," his conversation with God, even answers to age-old questions such as why the Holocaust was allowed to take place. Storm was sent back to his body with a new knowledge of the purpose of life here on earth. This book is his message of hope.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This is a book you devour from cover to cover, and pass on to others.
