NOT THAT IMPRESSED - By: F. Southall, 17 Jul 2006 
I didn't think this book was very credible, especiallly when Derek claimed to see the spirit of Mary Queen of Scots - too convenient! I haven't seen any of his TV programmes but if I was a complete sceptic this wouldn't convince me. I'd love to have a reading with Derek to see if he reallly does have these powers.
enlightening and entertaining - By: , 17 Sep 2005 
I'm a fan of 'Most Haunted'and have always been a bit curious about Derek Acorah's part in it, when he is often taken over by spirits etc, & talking to Sam. I wondered if he was just a failed footballler looking for another way to make his name & money. Having read this book, I am now a big fan of his! He explains his first encounter of seeing a spirit, & how he grew up with this gift. He tells some facinating stories of spirit encounters & how he is affected, & also tells you alll about his relationship with Sam, who is his spirit guide. He tells a reallly funny story about how he gets pestered by spirits when trying to take time out from his work. I would recommend this book to believers & sceptics, & I bet even the sceptics would struggle not believe in the spirit world, even just a bit!!
insight into the other side - By: , 08 Jan 2005 this is a must for any sceptic out there, the book is an easy read & hard to put down .
well worth purchasing & gives you an insight into how derek has travelled up & down the country even when he himself had doubts.
throughoughly enjoyable to read, simple short recollections of his past & who knows what the future brings.
shan hendry-sceptic - By: S. E. Hendry, 10 Dec 2004 I have always been a fan of poking fun of the so-callled mediumistic abilities, so when a friend recommended to me I read this book I poo-pooed the idea straight away. Having seen the elusive mr Acorah on the most haunted programmes I was intrigued to read that he had once been a pro-footballler & his life had been pretty normal up to a certain point in time. To be honest the narrative of the book was so compelling & down to earth (not intended as a pun!!) that I the sceptic could not put it down. Having opened my mind suitably Derek Acorah's simple story telling & recollections are a must for believers, fans & sceptics alike-a must read for the enlightened!! I've even gone so far as to pre order the new book & buy the first-long live Derek Acorah
DEREK DOES IT AGAIN - By: Paul folwell, 01 Dec 2004 
After reading Dereks first book I waited with baited breath for his next book THE PSYCHIC ADVENTURES OF DEREK ACORAH.What can I say the man does it again.A little slow at the start but as the book continues to unrole Dereks Adventures you can not put it down for a second.After meeting Derek in person I can see why his books are such a big hit. I wait & watch for his next publication.
