To begin with, I am probably not the right person to write a review of this book. My husband died a little more than 10 years ago, and I found myself struggling with the same questions, doubts and feelings that "Carol" did in [Dimensions] by [[Audrie Clifford]]. I have known her anger and her profound aloneness, as well as her well-deserved brief periods of inner peace - and, in fact, I live with all this at times even now.

[Dimensions] has a strong spiritual foundation, but is very pleasantly lacking in sanctimonius, self-righteous preaching. Instead, it is comforting and peaceful.

I highly recommend this book to all widows and widowers. ( )

Have you ever thought to yourself "what happens after you die?!" "is there a heaven or hell?" if so then you would want to read this book. This is a genre that i usually do not read but I also believe that spirits or "ghosts" can be near a person. There isn't too much to really say and describe the book so this is basically what its about.
Sam and Carol have been married for what I am assuming is quite some time (although time is not a factor in this book, because at sometimes there is no actual "time".) Sam dies, and Carol is devastated. Although weird things start to happen such as they had been trying to sell their house that had a mechanical shop attached to it for so long, and no one would bite until Sam died then out of the blue a man named Tom came to buy the property. Did Sam do this? Or is it just a coincidence? A pair of scissors and sheers go missing, and only the scissors re-appear. Did Sam move these? Or are they just gone? Gone where into another dimension? On earth Carol is learning to cope with the passing of her husband, while Sam is in another dimension trying to learn where he really is. He can see Carol, hear carol, but there is no time, and only a thought body. Is Sam in heaven, hell, is this all just a dream?
Although the book discusses religion throughout Sam's journey I would not say it is a religious book(or trying to sway you in any direction- only a brief description), he also learns the life of other people that were born at the same exact moment as him, because the soul may or may not be able to pick the family it is born into.

So as you see there really isn't a specific word to categorize this book. It's confusing at times, makes you think afterwords, during, and before. The book is also in a sense beautiful that although Sam passed away he is still helping, and protecting Carol. Although I feel as though she doesn't move on and forget Sam she is able to live her days as she would when Sam was there. It gives you a sense of relief if you've ever had someone pass away in your life and you swear that certain things happen or you feel the presence of that person around.

Thank you Audrie Clifford for allowing me to read this book, and yes I did enjoy the story.

I had the opportunity to read Audrie Clifford's latest work and found it innovative, touching, as well emotionally invasive (in a good way). This is a very nice introduction for anyone who has speculated as to the nature of death, and, the possibility that death is not an ending, but, actually another beginning, with its unique traits, skills, and learning curve(s). As we all know, it's not easy to be a human, but, it is equally not easy to be a non-human but with the remains of the mind and consciousness of being a human. Does this confuse you? Good! Read the book and go through the process for yourself. It will make you uncomfortable at the start of the story, but, hopefully, by the end, you will experience some relief in knowing that the transition at death is both workable and educational. Thank you, Audrie for the opportunity to read your book. ( )

The book is a fictionalized account of happenings in my life after my husband's death -- but that's the minor part of it. The major part of the book is about my main character, Sam, and his adventures in another dimension. Unlike heaven or hell, this is a place where Sam wanders and encounters things he had never considered but also reminders of his life on earth. The book is available from Amazon in both print and Kindle form.
