"This book has an exciting storyline, and deals with many controversial issues such as removal of life support and mental instability. A young lawyer is one of the main characters, but it is almost more of a medical story than a legal one. I can't wait to read the sequel, "Life Everlasting" to discover what happens next!"

— Libby, 5/26/2012" Another good one by Whitlow. I think I liked The List and The Trial better, but still very good. It does make you stop and think about Life Support in a physical, as well as spiritual context. "
— Skybirdsmom, 3/21/2012" I was drawn in with the first chapter and then wanted to continue because I was so curious as to how this was a christian book! Finally got to the end and couldnt believe that was how it ended....I forgot there was a second one! I will be reading that one soon! "
