Adam Baker, an eco-farming consultant, is divorced, estranged from his family... totally miserable. Walking on a deserted beach, he meets "Selph, " a precocius, overweight, wisecracking,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Getting There was a great book! I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in reading about Spirituality or Enlightenment. The book chronicles the spritual transformation of Adam, a despondent, crabby, and depressed eco-farmer in Australia. Through the help of your extraordinary teacher, Selph, Adam learns how to change his life and finally become a happier individual. The book is great because it's funny, has a great plot, and a couple of great lessons. I think by the time anyone finishes this book, you will come to love Adam, Amber and especially Selph!!!
A Journey of Courage

This story was simply wonderful - ! Many times have I read one truly great book from an author, went back for more, and found the rest sadly lacking ... not so with Michael Roads' books! Every single one of them is a treasure to read and re-read, refreshing in their poetic simplicity and deeply touching.In this particular novel, prepare to hang on for an enriching and very intense ride that takes you from the very pits of despair to immense joy and anywhere in between. It is a very human journey, a journey of growing courage, love, and joy. Too many of us think we're on this journey alone, without help or anyone to understand what we go through - well, think again! If you're on this journey of self-discovery, this story will definitely in-spire; and even if you're not yet sure if you are, this book is too good a read to pass up! Sit back and enjoy - and have FUN!

Michael Roads opens your heart and mind, allowing you to see self and spiritual growth as a natural part of human evolution. I feel that he allows the idea of awakening to seem real and attainable rather than remaining a mystical fantasy. He is a gifted writer, and I would highly suggest all his books because they bring to life so beautifully his amazing metaphysical experiences.
I can't put it down!

I came across this book last week in a bookstore and having read "Into the Timeless Realm", I decided to give it a shot. Well, what a find! I'm over half way through it and I just can't put it down. It's a wonderful story that reminds me of Jane Roberts' Oversoul 7 trilogy. I don't know if Michael Roads has ever read any of Jane's or Seth's books, but his works cover many of the same topics and reinforce the "you create your own reality" ideas put forth by Seth. I'm looking forward to the next 2 books in Mr. Roads' trilogy.
This is a book for people who want to read a wonderful book!

GETTING THERE is a full course meal with all the trimmings. I like to have a book effect me or stimulate me or take me for a ride. Here is a book to do all that. I have read this book twice and I recommend it to everyone. Michael Roads is making a contribution to the growth potential in all of us. I have been to hear Michael talk and always leave with motivation and insight with which to effect change in my life. GETTING THERE sits waiting to do the same at any reading! Thanks Michael!
