I tend to stay away from media tie-in books, for several reasons, the main one being that it seems to take a special twist of the muse for an author to successfully inhabit another creator's "world." Even some of my favorite authors--whose original works I love--don't have that special talent when it comes to playing in somebody else's sandbox. But a few do... and I was happy to see that Durgin is one of them. (She's written other media tie-ins, but they're no longer in print, and I haven't read them.)

She got the character right... right down to the clothes! She got the relationships between the main characters right, and she got the "feel" of the series right. (Don't ask me to explain that... it's hard to put into words... some combination of character and story that just evokes the same reaction in me as the show does.) It not only kept me reading far into the night, the ending brought on the waterworks, just like the endings on the show always do!

Add to that Durgin's talent for writing a fast-paced story without sacrificing the kind detail that brings the characters and setting alive, and I think this one's a winner. I'll be looking for more "Ghost Whisperer" titles from this author. (There WILL be more, right?!?)

this book was great, i didn't know that someone was writing stories to go along with the tv show and i am impressed that they kept with the integrity of the show.

Nicely Done!

I've read a fair number of media tie-in books before, but I have to say that none of them drew me in like this book did. Doranna captured the characters perfectly. I could see the story in my mind as if I were watching an episode of the series. This book is very true to the TV series and I look forward to reading the next installment.

I absolutely love the series, so of course when I saw the this book at the book store, I snapped it right up! It was a wonderfully written book and very suspenseful (just like the series). While I read it I could actually invision this as an episode. If you're a fan of the show, definitely try out this book. You'll love it!
