Book Description
A “brilliant and fascinating” (Eben Alexander, MD, author of Proof of Heaven) exploration—rich with powerful personal stories and convincing research—of the many ways the living can and do accompany the dying on their journey into the afterlife. In 2000, end-of-life therapist William Peters was volunteering at the Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco when he had an extraordinary experience as he was reading aloud to a patient: he suddenly felt himself floating midair, completely out of his body. The patient, who was also aloft, looked at him and smiled. The next moment, Peters felt himself return to his body…but his patient never regained consciousness and died. Perplexed and stunned by what had happened, Peters began searching for other people who’d shared similar experiences. He would spend the next twenty years gathering and meticulously categorizing their stories to identify key patterns and features of what is now known as the “shared crossing” experience. The similarities, which cut across continents and cultures and include awe-inspiring visual and sensory effects, and powerful emotional aftershocks. The book is filled with “moving and tender” (Jack Kornfield, PhD, author of A Path with Heart) tales of spouses seeing their loved ones reach the other side after decades together and bereaved parents who share their children’s entry into the afterlife. Applying rigorous research, Peters digs into the effects of these shared crossing experiences impart—liberation at the sight of a loved one finding joy, a sense of reconciliation if the relationship was fraught—and explores questions like: What can explain these shared death experiences? How can we increase our likelihood of having one? What do these experiences tell us about what lies beyond? And, most importantly, how can they help take away the string of death and better prepare us for our own final moments? How can we have both a better life and a better death?

Book Description
Two intrepid teenagers seek to survive a perilous world in which the risk of death is an everyday reality. While residing within a structure called the Mansion, the first young girl grows ever more restless as her heart longs for meaning and freedom outside of her present life. The oppressive walls of the Mansion form the only home she's ever known, but for her and the several hundred occupants within the Mansion, their fortified existence is as suffocating as it is vital. Grotesque creatures roam outside their fortress, haunting their every step and promising a fate worse than death. The second teenager travels with a ragged party of survivors across an unforgiving wilderness after their own walled compound is destroyed. The teen's uncle leads them on their journey to discover a new life while avoiding the relentless beasts hunting them. Despite palpable threats at every turn, the second teen finds the most pressing harm to be her father's smothering, protective shadow, which threatens her quest for independence at every turn. As the danger grows and more deaths toll, both girls will face their own unique realities head-on. In Hourglass, author Garrett Schroeder takes you on this exhilarating journey, where you will confront two timeless questions: first, what makes a monster, and second, what should be feared more, a monster at your door or a monster within?
