Angels of Divine Light By Aiden Storey  (Transworld, £7.99)

[FOUR STARS]   From the start of this autobiography the reader gets the impression that Aiden Storey has a huge capacity for love and expressing that love, he writes about his adored mother in such a special way as well as his connection to his faith even at such a young age expressed through the various religious holidays and festivals that make up his young years. At the beginning of the book as he writes about his childhood, the structure and language used sometimes comes across as being rather rigid at times and slightly impersonal, like he is telling someone else’s story. As you get further into the book however you see the possible reasons for this and it sometimes make uncomfortable reading due the subject matter. When he starts to write about his Angels then the book really starts to come alive, not necessarily in a positive way but a honest account of his struggles and his personal agonies at finding himself and being comfortable with his abilities. Whereas some people would think that having this gift of communication and healing would make an easy and lighter life, Aiden’s honesty about his depression and breakdown shows the reality of his situation and ties in well with the continuing theme of learning the lessons we’re given and that our journey in life and spirituality is a constant education. Structurally wise the language flows evenly and while it’s easy to read there’s a lot of information to take in at times which depending on the readers mood could either make them put the book down to think or to have a rest.. It’s very descriptive when referring to his Angel work and his spiritual experiences but retains a humility about it. The quotations at the start of each chapter are a nice touch but there is a sentence in the book that is a quote in itself, that ‘Church and Religion have made God so complicated’ a fantastic line that I imagine a lot of readers of the spirituality genre will relate too. I feel that this is a must have book if Angel work and healing is your ‘thing’ and even if it isn’t, it’s an interesting, moving and illuminating read. Zoie Coggins
