| Ok, I'll probably get flamed for this but let me play the devil's advocate here. Many call this story unbelievable and I really think it is. Remember...he is the LONE survivor...that means he can write anything he wants and nobody would know any better. Here's what makes me question his version of events.
The compromise of the mission. Ok, I've heard this story a few too many times before. Did he read "Bravo Two Zero" or see the movie by any chance? Well, it's about a SAS team that gets ... Read More: |

| I've been a fan of Robert Wagner's for long enough that I remember almost all the movies he's done, as well as every television series in which he's appeared. This book will be most appreciated by people like me, who have long memories for old (and some not so old) movies and the many older stars he discusses. [Would anyone under 40 even know who Barbara Stanwyck was?]
The most appealing aspect of the book is the casual way Wagner gives insights into Hollywood, the privileged lives of actors and the business of movie making. ... Read More: |

| This was a great book. The insights into the Owls mind and daily life was so cool.
How he bonded with her, loved her and thought Stacy was his life mate was so neat and touching. I loved how he brought her food, and made nests for her. Some of the men she dated, did not deserve her or her owl. There were some great and funny parts in this book, and some sad and touching parts. I can understand her guilt over getting sick, and not having the time for Wesley. Hopefully she has let herself off the hook. This ... Read More: |

| I also agree with what some of the others are saying...this was not at all what I had expected. I have read MANY books like this and I always finish them within a day because I'm so interested but I have to be honest...I got a little bored with this one (sorry!). If you're looking for books on near death experiences (NDE), I would not recommend this at all; there are much better options out there. However, if you are looking for a story on what happens AFTER the NDE, then this might be for you. |
