Publisher's summary

The Spirits Book (1857), written by Allan Kardec, is widely regarded as the most important piece of writing in the spiritist canon. It is the first in a series of five books that Kardec wrote that are collectively known as the Spiritist Codification. Although the other four books, The Medium's Book, The Gospel According to Spiritism, Heaven and Hell, and The Genesis According to Spiritism, are of great importance to the Spiritist movement, it is The Spirits Book that lays out the doctrine of the belief system.

Listen carefully spiritism is one of the truly open traditions

Salvation is for all over the span of eternity not by any particular faith but by learning to love and do good to others - this is truly good news. I find the narration superb. This is a treasure pure and simple - I am very grateful this exists.

Nerve wracking narration

The narrators voice is very difficult to listen to. Sounds like he has something in his mouth while he narrates. Also his voice cracks a lot. I had to strain to hear what he was saying.

Life changing

Marks a before and after in my own spiritual journey by providing vast knowledge - eye / mind opening . Awesome. Blessed to have been "nudged" to come across this body of universal knowledge

very good information

I got this book after watching Kardec on Netflix. the information is excellent. There is some audio errors, especially in one chapter where it sounds completely unedited. But the information is worth over looking that. It is encouraging to see the wisdom of Spirit has been imparted through the ages, for those ready to hear it.

Not actually a spirits book

More like a brainwashing book. Lots of explanations of what is "true", just because. Great for loyal subjects of some blind faith of a christian God.

Unacceptable Narration, Good Content

Horrible choice of narrator, didn't like the pacing. Also, for a book which is mostly a Q&A style, two voices are required for better understanding. In a lot of cases I got lost in the narration because it changed from the questions to the answers and vice versa with the same voice and pacing. Recommend to read the book instead of listening to this narration.

Helpful book

Although I found the information interesting, I had a hard time enjoying it. I found the narrator very hard to listen to unfortunately
