Cool book, its a fascinating idea, following scientists who are investigating near death experiences. Great potential for a super emotional, high-stakes book, and Willis largely delivers on that front. I didn't end up loving the style, there are little phrases Willis likes to keep repeating, and portions of the book where it feels things aren't progressing. Altogether, well done, but not quite my cup of tea.
