These CD's are not an exchange between Esther Hicks and Abraham which I have always found to be interesting, informative and fun. This CD set is Jerry Hicks speed- reading his way thru the book. And I mean speed-reading, with hardly an inflection of voice. There is no opportunity to really think about and absorb the material. I would really like to return it.

I am very disappointed with this cd set.I thought this set would be Abraham channeled via Esther,But,Nooooooo it's Jerry just reading the book at such a fast rate of speed and so monotone-no passion whatsoever!I gave up after listening to this speed reading by the 3rd cd,Although I did fast forward through the rest seeking to hear Abraham or Esther to no avail.No Esther whatsoever...how can one absorb anything from this when if you blink an eye you miss a word from this audio book?!!At least Abraham and Esther take their time to help one understand.I should have just bought the book and read it at my pace..at least I would've learned a thing or two.I felt this way also when i purchased the entire deliberate intent series on cd..I so enjoy hearing Esther's great sense of humor and of course Abraham.Jerry,You're a wonderful man for seeking this out many yrs ago and I Thank you for your research and work,But please allow Esther & Abraham to expound on these teachings with their humorous deep passion and easier understanding...they truly make us all passionate about the law..i'm sure like myself most others also savor every teaching from Abraham & Esther leaving us feeling happy to be here and wanting more out of life.But when Jerry reads on audio--do not listen while driving..he reads way to fast!Unfortunately,I came away with nothing learned from cd set..What a bummer.wish I could get my money back also.If you haven't purchased the book please do so and save yourself money for another book,you'll get more out of it by reading rather than listening,as i enjoy listening due to a busy schedule.0 stars for this cd set.AMAZON,PLEASE CREATE AN AREA TO LET THE BUYER KNOW IF ITS A BOOK READ AND BY WHOM IE;JERRY HICKS ONLY.Thank you.

I'm sure Jerry Hicks is an important part of the Abraham-Hicks team, but he should NOT be allowed to read aloud.

This CD set is boring, there is no voice intonation, the delivery is done so quickly there's no way to get meaning from the information.

Next time they want to offer a CD product, they should either stay with the Q&A format between Esther (Abraham) and an audience or hire a voice actor who can infuse some life into the ideas coming across.

This was so bad I never made it more than 45 minutes into the first CD. If I could have returned it, I would have.

As it was, I actually threw it away rather than subject someone else to it & perhaps cause them to reject all the A-H info they may come across in the future.

This CD set will not bring in any new people & it may actually lose a few. All around, it was a bad idea.

I have to agree with others in that I wish Esther would have channeled Abraham and/or read the book herself.

I was really disappointed to find that after recieving my CD's, I had to sit and listen while Jerry read the entire book. I kept fast fowarding looking for Esther being Channeled by Abraham. This is really a bad idea. Abraham should always read their own books. When I listen to Abraham, I feel more clarity and excitement and most importantly...understanding!

Jerry seems to have no feeling when reading anything in my opinion. He just shoots straight thru the material with hardly any emotions. Nothing against you Jerry...I really like you. But please let Abraham take over from now on. I know it's not possible, but I really wish this CD could be reproduced over again with Abraham ;-(

The information from Abraham is always great, but I was really disappointed to discover once again that it wasn't Abraham (Esther) that I was going to be listening to like in the Aston. Pwr of Emotions preview cd & also in the "Law of Attraction" cds which I thoroughly enjoy! Instead, it was Jerry's voice (sorry Jerry) reading the book. I enjoy hearing Esther's voice so much more & let's face it, if I were to purchase any other "channeled" audio cd, I'm going to expect the medium's voice to deliver the material not someone else reciting the information...I'll read the book myself instead (which I have also purchased along with many of their other works.) Give us more of Esther & Abraham please!

The script is read so fast. You cannot grasp the first concept before the reader is on to another 3 concepts. That is how fast it is read. A REAL disappointment and a waste of money. I, also, wish I could return it.

This book adds to everything that Abraham-Hicks has published. It presents the basic material in a different way. The more I hear it, the more it sinks in, the better I understand the material, and I am better able to walk the walk.

I own the CD audio version, and plan to purchase the book. The audio version provides a fast run-through, but I like to read the book also to study in depth, re read, hilite, make notes, etc. I discount the negative reviews of Jerry Hicks reading the material. Yes, he reads fast, and possibly it sounds monotone, BUT, the material is real. Since I have listened to Esther channel Abraham, it is easy for me to hear that voice in place of Jerry. I don't find it difficult to listen to Jerry. The material captures me.

Some may complain that it is a rehash of prior books. That is true to some extent, but there is always a new set of sails on the basic material, and I find it very helpful. I read all of Abraham-Hicks material more than once, and I will read this one more than once. I also look forward to any new Abraham-Hicks publications. New material keeps me involved and moving forward.

Because of Abraham-Hicks material, I have become aware of the law of attraction working in my life, and I try to see and do things differently to achieve different results. I know definitely my vibrational level is rising, and this material helps me move in what I feel is a positive direction.

My only recommendation is start with earlier material. This book launches from earlier material, and the review is brief.

I see from the reviews that others could listen to this CD-set but I could not get past the 3rd CD before giving up. As much as I appreciate Jerry Hicks for all he has contributed, I simply could not listen to him drone on reading this book. He reads too fast in a dull, flat monotone voice that I found intolerable after a short while. I intend to never buy another CD of Jerry reading any of the Abraham-Hicks books. I truly think they should either re-record the book with someone else reading it or offer people their money back. I recommend buying the original book instead of this audiobook.

This material offers exceptional information, however, the audio format is hard to stick with - It is offered at such a high speed and with so little inflexion that there is no opportunity for absorption - I sold my copy on eBay and bought the book through Amazon - I liked the book so much that I bought an additional copy to send to a friend -
