Brillante...!!!

Sierra es sin duda el principe de lo esoterico...al igual que en sus otros libros, por ejemplo "La Cena Secreta", esta obra atrapa al lector y lo introduce a una tercera dimension humana, lo inexplicable que repentinamente se hace entendible.

Do you believe in angels?

This is a very interesting book. The author culls through some historical figures and manuscripts, and comes up with a riveting plot that carries the reader along quite quickly. He has woven together separate strains of the plot into a coherent whole by the end of the book, and presents a fully realized conspiracy idea that I believe is quite far-fetched, but accepting the milieu of the book, quite compelling. All of the characters are well defined, and their actions are believeable. There is an interesting history lesson embedded in this book, aside from the fictional aspects of it, that I found fascinating. This is a book well worth reading!

The truth is out there

I have heard that spirit has the ability to appear in 2 places at once. This book is about bilocation, but about a living nun 400 years ago who could appear in SW America and facilitate the conversion to Christianity of Native Americans. The Catholic Church has been studying how this bilocation occurred to see the possiblilties of replacating it. Turns out there really was something called Chronovision (chrono means year in Greek) - that can go back in time and hear the actions and sometimes take photos of the actions in the past. One of the creators is censored, after he speaks to a magazine talking about their progress on this top secret project. This book also deals with synchronicity - one of my favorite words - where everything comes together - is interelated - A journalist who wants to know God exists, and follows signs he is given, a lady who dreams of the Lady in Blue and can see beyond her dreams. And the work of God in mysterious and very cool ways. This is a wonderful book. It is based on fact of occurances in the past of sightings and although I haven't researched the people Sierra says really have tried to duplicate Chronovision, lists them for reference. Cannot wait for the next Sierra book to be translated.

Fascinating data, intrigue, and food for thought

I found that this fascinating mix of curious historical data and mystical experiences with modern day espionage, synchronicities and journalistic curiosity, kept me on the edge of my chair, anticipating what the next chapter would unveil. Its fast pace and incursions into many aspects of historical secrets and modern research and technology makes for a great read and I enjoyed every page. I appreciated the notes at the end where the author confesses to being the protagonist of the incredible events narrated as part of this amazing story, that actually got him in touch with the Lady in Blue, giving the adventure almost supernatural tones. Javier Sierra has painstakingly researched many details of history, both 17th century and present day and brings to light in a novelized format, some underlying truths that both shock and surprise, but also add new perspectives to how the world might really work. His slant on how bi-location might be used to promote religious ideas is definitely intriguing. A book to be enjoyed and then its implications, thought about.

Riveting mix of history and mystery, science and faith.

Javier Sierra's "The Lady in Blue" is an intriguing "eye-opener" intertwining historical and scientific research with his own experience of amazing synchronicities. His remarkable novel focuses on the mysterious phenomenon of bilocation, or teleportation, and involves historical records of the Inquisition concerning the strange case of Sister María de Jesús de Ágreda, a 17th century Spanish nun. Through her miraculous apparitions to natives in the New World, she brought about their peaceful conversion to Catholicism before the arrival of Spanish missionaries--although she never physically left her convent in Spain. Sierra's skillfully woven narrative combines Sister Maria's amazing story with modern research into teleportation by power-motivated entities investigating its feasibility in psychic espionage. An exciting read!
