About this listen
How indeed! Since his youth, William Barnes has been haunted by a recurring nightmare, a huge ship looming overhead, piercing screams, heated arguments, frigid water stabbing his body, and a giant peach-colored mass of steel falling on him. At the age of four, Barnes drew a ship with four smokestacks, talked of his ship that had died, insisted on being called "Tommie", and spoke of brothers and a sister he didn't have. More than simply a child's imagination, these scenes are remnants from another time and place in history, another life!
As an adult, the ongoing nightmares pulled Barnes into a deep depression. Ordered to seek help by his employer, Barnes was referred to psychologist Frank Baranowski, Ph.D., who used regression therapy as a clinical tool and who has conducted thousands of regression sessions.
Baranowski uncovers, within Barnes, the persona of an Irish shipbuilder named Thomas Andrews, who died during one of the most dramatic events of the 20th century and captures one of the most convincing cases of reincarnation ever recorded.

Story
What do you do when you discover information that is before its time? What do you do when your curiosity takes you on an adventure that is so bizarre that there is nothing normal to relate to? This is what happened to Dolores Cannon in 1968, long before she began her career as a past-life hypnotherapist and regressionist. Travel back with us to that time when the words reincarnation, past-lives, regression, walk-ins, New Age were unknown to the general population.

Her hands were strapped down at her sides so she couldn’t fight, but she had no more fight left inside her. It was the 1970s, here in America, and Christie was about to endure one of many electric shock treatments the doctors hoped would “cure” this young woman of her strange fantasies involving extra-terrestrial life and worlds long lost and forgotten.

Tom Felton’s adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame in beloved films like The Borrowers catapulted him into the limelight, but nothing could prepare him for what was to come after he landed the iconic role of the Draco Malfoy, the bleached blonde villain of the Harry Potter movies. For the next ten years, he was at the center of a huge pop culture phenomenon and yet, in between filming, he would go back to being a normal teenager trying to fit into a normal school. Speaking with great candor and his signature humor, Tom shares his experience.

Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. Neurosurgeon Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress. Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back. Alexander’s recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle of his story lies elsewhere.

Off the fence
Would you consider the audio edition of My Life and Death to be better than the print version?
When I first began listening, I was not certain I would enjoy this audio book as the storyline appeared so questionable. We have also been bombarded with Titanic stories for years to the point of overload!
Thankfully, however, I persevered and I am so grateful I did. The story presented and, in particular, the interviews afterwards, were so well done, my belief in reincarnation has been irreparably changed. I have been sitting on the fence about this for many years but this story definitely inched me off that fence.
Bill's voice (heard as Tommy's) was so real and believable....the story so plausible. I was entranced throughout.
The wheels are turning.

A different viewpoint...
I decided to give this audiobook a try as an avid history reader and having enjoyed several other books on the Titanic. This was definitely a twist on the tale, as the story uses excerts from hypnotic regression sessions with a man who claims to have been Tommy Andrews, the builder of the Titanic, in a past life. An interesting twist on history, though, overall, not any great literary work. Was a good listen for the commute as I did not lose the story in the short 30 minutes bursts of listening in the car. There is a good message, just listen with an upon mind.

Entertaining
This was an extremely unique viewpoint. The reader, Alden Stevens, did an excellent job of portraying Tommy Andrews perspective through hypnotic regression. This includes the events that led up to, and including, the fateful night when the Titanic sunk. For anyone that believes in the afterlife, this story is believable.

Would you consider the audio edition of My Life and Death to be better than the print version?
No way! I think it was made to be listened to because it is all actual live recordings of William's past life regressions.

Cringe Worthy Accent...
Would you try another book from William Barnes and Frank Baranowski and/or William Barnes and Frank Baranowski ?
Sure.
Would you recommend My Life and Death to your friends? Why or why not?
I might if they are open minded. It is very interesting. Entertaining at least.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
Sure
Could you see My Life and Death being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
There have been so many stories about Titanic. If the movie is true to the book, maybe. But how often does that happen?
Any additional comments?
Keep an open mind. If you don't believe in reincarnation just listen to it as an interesting story.
The message I took from it - when a person misuses power calamity comes -

Wow
Wow, this audiobook was amazing. It was hard not to believe it, but even if it was fiction, it was extremely well done. I am a history buff, and at the moment I am particularly interested in the Titanic (building, facts, ect.). The one problem I found, was not knowing what to believe. There are some very interesting details which, if true, could provide great insight into the disaster. Overall, it was a great listen, and it did alert me to some very insightful facts which I confirmed later on.

Interesting
This is the biography of Thomas Andrews' life story based upon the hypnosis sessions of the American author who was Thomas Andrews in a past life. It was very interesting to hear and terribly sad because we all know what happens in the end. The narrator does a wonderful job. I would have loved more background on the author and his life. It is touched upon briefly in the beginning about his fears of ice and other issues which led him to hypnosis. Also if anyone has tried to confirm any of this. Perhaps in a later book? At the end they tell you how you can order a copy of all the hypnosis sessions.
