Title: Lightpoints

Author: Peter Kassan

Genre: NA Paranormal

Release Date: March 25, 2013


Blurb: 

What if you suddenly discovered you had a sense—and powers—that almost no one else in the world did?

When Amanda Lindner Nichols, a 24-year-old graphic artist living with her husband in Queens, New York, is revived from a near-death experience, she discovers she perceives everyone around her as points of light—but not with her eyes. She soon learns she can not only perceive the life energy of others, but she can give and take it. With the help of others like her, she brings her husband Chris to the brink of death and back to bestow on him the same remarkable faculty, and they’re the happiest they’ve been.

But not for long. All over the world, people who’ve been revived from their own near-death experience at just the right moment discover themselves with these same unusual powers. They find ways to use them—some for good and some for evil. When Amanda and Chris encounter a ruthless group of gangsters with the same faculty, tragedy follows—and Amanda faces the greatest challenge of her life.

Where you can find it?



I got this book from the author and publisher, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side.
Firstly I would like to thank Peter Kassan, author of Lightpoints for giving me this opportunity of reading and reviewing this fabulous book.
Here we are introduced to Amanda and we find her in a dangerous situation where a psychopath stabs her and she is left dying at Grand Central station but she miraculously survives and after a small out of body experience her soul is drawn back in to her body but when she wakes up she finds about a new ability that she has been gifted with. She can see the life form of the living as light points and not only that she can give and take away those life forms as well. This ability surfaces when a person goes through near death experience but not all those people who have developed this ability wants to use it for greater good rather they want to destroy everything and rule over the world. After doing a near death experiment with her husband Amanda helps him to develop the same ability and soon they are threatened by the evil ones. Will they survive this grave danger?
This was an engaging read for me and I enjoyed it very much. I liked the fresh concept and the perfect presentation of it through enriched words. The vivid descriptions of the near death experience scenes and the out of body experience scenes were remarkably well-written and it made the read intriguing. The mystery made the read even more interesting and kept me hooked in the story. Over all this was a very well-written, fast-paced, descriptive and well planned out story which will definitely win hearts. The characterization seemed a bit sketchy and sometimes the dialogues confused me but I liked Amanda’s character though I should mention that Amanda’ s character was also underdeveloped to a certain extent. Other than this I liked the story very much and I bet that you guys will love it as well.
