Publisher's summary

Let's pretend that I was killed on that day, when I wasn't.

The day when my guardian angel managed to throw my F-86F half a second from becoming a fireball in the desert, up into a clear sky, way above what would have been the impact point.

If she hadn't done this, if she hadn't spared my life time after time in the 80-some years that we've been together, I wouldn't have written this book that brings those strange times together, and suggests why we choose any lifetime in the first place.

For 78 of those years, I had no idea that she existed, hadn't heard about guardian angels and what their job might be. Hadn't heard that our angel stays with us from the minute we're born till the time that our mission is done, and we come home to the place we call heaven.

Today I've just about finished a lifetime, and at last I can understand what it is that we do as mortals, and why we choose these over all the other possibilities.

Thank you, dear guardian angel, and please consider that with your consent and signature, our contract will extend to yet another lifetime.

Richard Bach is the author of 25 books, including Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Illusions, and The Bridge Across Forever. His books have sold tens of millions in over 40 languages throughout the world. Back to back, his work has been on the New York Times best seller lists for more than four years. He deals, most simply and effectively, with ideas that have the power to change the world.

I have love Richard Bach is the age of 12

I have read most of his books. This book was able to make me pause take inventory, and think of the blessings in my life. Where my blessing came from. And who has helped me be the success I am.

Richard Bach inspires

I loved the story, talking to my guardian angel has been my little secret. Little did I know Richard had wrote a book about it. I recommend this book to those who know dying is just a threshold since we are infinite beings.

Great story. Put reading.

The story is great but the guy reading this is not.
His cadence, his tone, his inflection, his timing all runs together. It makes it very hard to understand who’s talking and what’s happening.
He sounds like he’s rushing through it.

So So

Not up to Bach's best. This was a bit too subrebrial. I prefer his more adventurous spirit.

Not engaging, TERRIBLE NARRATION

I don’t know where to start with this novella. I love Richard Bach’s books. I suppose the story itself was ok. Not exciting and my ideas of the afterlife don’t coincide super well with RB’s interpretation. That’s ok, I still found some great concepts in this very short story. It’s the NARRATION that ruined this experience. The narrator, Todd NAPPER has no voice variety, no emotive qualities, and no feel for pauses or storytelling. It’s genuinely terrible. It ruined what little I did enjoy from the story, completely. Trust me, do NOT buy the audible version of this short story.

Not my favorite

Given his other books and the impact they made, this is a pale comparison to those.
