Summary

Multi-millionaire Anthony Spencer is trapped in a coma and finds himself in a surreal world that reflects the skewed priorities of the life he's lived on Earth where he meets a stranger who turns out to be Jesus and a grandmother who is the Holy Spirit. Pleading for a second chance, he is sent back to Earth to redeem himself. There he must fight to put right the mess he's created, experiencing events through others' eyes before deciding how to use the miraculous gift he's been given. Before his illness he had set events in motion that he now needs to undo - but will he have the courage to make the right choice?

The Shack is an international phenomenon, surpassing one million copies sold before being picked up by a mainstream publisher. Its combination of radical spirituality with a heart-wrenching story made it a word-of-mouth hit, and Cross Roads has all the ingredients to repeat its impact.

Gripping piece of fiction, powerful conclusion

This book swot me along with the narrative. Something of an emotional roller coaster at times.

Made me think ...!

Actually, each chapter was so well written that without prompting it made me both think - and want to read/ know more.

You won't be disappointed.

Fabulous story with lots of refreshing insights to life.

A wonderfully written story, totally engaging & beautifully narrated. A story to thoroughly enjoy but it’s also packed with meaningful, & sometimes unexpected insights about God the Father, Jesus & the Holy Spirit, with interesting suggestions of how He interacts with us in total relationship. This story shows you a whole new way to look within yourself & outwards at life. It perfectly reflects the verse in Psalm 90 v 12: “so teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.” Even though it’s a fictional story, I am a different person for reading this book.

The characters were fantastic.

The characters and the story are amazing, I loved it. I couldnt stop crying at the end. If your faith in something better after this life is lost, this will bring back your hope. There is always hope.

Cross Roads WM Paul Young

Cross Roads takes you donw the path of the inner experience of life. It shows you memories stocked away, hidden but having their influence never the less. It brings you face to face with your deepest motives, drives and ambitions. On the other side it shows you the face of Jesus in a way you have never seen it before. It shows a way to turn from false beliefs in how life works, towards true life and the way one can live it fully. A remarcable tale...!!!

No disappointment

I worried that The Shack was too hard to follow and was afraid that this book would disappoint me. How wrong I was! Beautifully written and thought provoking, never afraid to touch on themes that are difficult to contemplate, Crossroads is every bit as tough to read and as inspiring as The Shack. The audio book is beautifully read too, bringing the characters to life.

better than Eve

I think this would make a great film. I have seen the Shack yet but having read it, plus Eve and now Crossroads I think there's definitely potential here.

going to be looking for more of Paul's books...

An amazing journey.

Brilliant book,imaginative engaging helps you to revisit who you are and what you are becoming. Jesus,holy spirit and father God characterisation challenge the stereotypes. but reveal honest truth about the nature of God.

Make sure you keep going

Having read "The Shack" I was excited to read Mr. Young's next book. And I have to say it does not disappoint. Although my only observation is as you reach chapter 2/3 the book slows a little but do bear with it as the story soon explodes. Excellent writing, really enjoyed the book
