Superstition

Anyone who enjoys a chilling novel of a parapsychological experiment that goesdisasterously wrong won't be able to put this book down, or in this case turn off your audio device. I listened to this book many years ago on tape from my local library, and was overjoyed to find it here. It was this book that encouraged me to sign up for audio books now. I had been searching for it for a long time, and when I found it on their site, I was so excited, I immediately signed up. And, the book was just as wonderful the second time around as the first.

A parapsychological thriller at its best. It is also a favorite book of some of my friends, and they have enjoyed rereading it as much as I have.

Superstition by David Ambrose Ambrose uses an actual experiment carried out in Toronto Canada by a team of Parapsychologists known as the “Phillip Experiment” as a platform and structural foundation for his novel. Ambrose writes a rather decent suspense/ Ghost story, definitely scary in its’ own way.......more

I was mildly indifferent to the story and the characters in the beginning, gripped in the middle, and kind of lost by the end. It's difficult to write about it without spoilers, hence the other reviews are so intriguing, I guess :) The beginning of the novel is a weird scene, and then we jump to the e......more

I found what might otherwise have been an ordinary horror story, (I'm not a fan of horror), surprisingly interesting because of the thought provoking concepts it contained. I've written a number of novels that involve the paranormal--(THE THIRD EYE, STRANGER WITH MY FACE, SUMMER OF FEAR, etc.)--as w......more
