Death Theory

By: John D. Mimms

Narrated by: Joe Messina

Mankind’s greatest fear is also its greatest obsession. What awaits when we shuffle off the mortal coil of this world? We all have our beliefs based on faith or science, but both struggle to provide a tangible answer. Perhaps it is possible to prove the existence of the soul, to prove it goes on after death.

Following the violent death of his parents, Jeff Granger seeks reassurance that they have moved on. After recording what he believes to be his mother’s voice at the site of the accident, Jeff’s obsession throws him into paranormal research. Realizing that most people are doing it just for fun, Jeff forms his own group. He is joined by Debbie Gillerson, a schoolteacher; Aaron Presley, a mortician; and Michael Pacheco, a grocery store manager. Even though they are all investigating the paranormal for very different reasons, they are all trying to fill an emptiness in their lives. The deeper they probe paranormal theory, the darker their results.

The only way to truly test the Death Theory, as theorized by Aaron, is to monitor a person’s energy at the moment of death. Horrified by the immoral and unethical application, the group dismisses the theory. A darkness seems to follow their investigations, and the police become involved. A former colleague of Jeff’s, a self-proclaimed demonologist, believes a demonic force is attached to the group. The police are not so sure. Evil comes in many forms, as the small group is about to discover.

Great paranormal story

Joe Messina brings the characters to life.

I was given a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

"Flatliners" ruined it for me.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I will probably recommend this book to my friends, because the book does have an interesting story and the subject matter is of course extremely intriguing. Those who have not read any such book or seen any such movie will definitely enjoy this.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Sadly I didn't manage to listen to this one till the end. I was finding too many similarities between this story and the start of the movie "Flatliners" that I had seen earlier last week. That movie was a huge disappointment and that ruined this book for me; probably caused by no fault of the book itself.

What three words best describe Joe Messina’s performance?

Good. No Complaints.

THRILLING

I absolutely enjoyed this book start to finish it was better than his book The Tesla Gate and different. In this thrilling suspenseful book Jeff forms a paranormal group (Debbie, Presley and Pac) to try and find what goes on after life after and debunking. I not only has paranormal (which I love) murder mystery. Highly recommend you won’t regret it and has great narration.

Great listen

I completely enjoyed this book. Without giving any spoilers, I’ll just say I didn’t like the ending. Some may think it is a wild and unexpected ending, which it is, but just not to my liking.
I still gave it 5 stars because it is a great listen. I can’t wait to explore more books from this author.

Great ghost story

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I enjoyed this audio book. I thought it was an interesting and engaging paranormal/ghost story. It was like watching one of those ghost hunting shows on TV except that the main character, Jeff, actually encounters ghosts. It was well narrated and kept me engaged the entire time. I would definitely be open to more from this duo.

100% Awesome!

'Death Theory' is the best book I've listened to in quite a while. Based on the premise, for some reason, I had lower expectations. I was so pleasantly surprised that this book started out as a character driven story about people who had some interest in the potential reality of the paranormal. I was drawn in immediately because of how well Mimms wrote the characters. This tale takes an incredible turn midway that launches this character driven paranormal story into a full blown mystery/thriller and I can't say how much I enjoyed that! Very rarely does a book take me by surprise, but this one left me guessing in the most satisfying way. I was hooked from the very top to the very bottom; Joe Messina gives a fantastic performance that is very worthy of this great story. I would recommend 'Death Theory' to anyone who enjoys the paranormal genre - it's a really, really fantastic one.
