Walking Between Worlds: Belonging to None

Reviewed by Kam Aures for RebeccasReads (3/08)

“Walking Between Worlds: Belonging to None” written by Ann Andrews is the story of her son Jason, an Indigo Child who had been abducted by aliens on multiple occasions.  For the first twelve years of Jason’s life his parents had always attributed his unusual behavior and memories to anything other than what was really happening because they simply refused to believe that it was due to extraterrestrial activity.  There were some truly strange events that did occur.  One of the first shared in the book happened on Jason’s fourth birthday in 1987.  It was nighttime and all of a sudden there was a loud banging at the door and the house seemed like it started shaking.  Jason then started saying all kinds of mathematic and algebraic equations out loud.  Jason’s father Paul called the police, but when they arrived they found no footprints outside, nor did they find any explanations for the things that had happened.  The book is filled with different types of strange occurrences similar to this example. 

The phenomenon of alien abduction often is said to run in families and that is the case with this family.  Through Jason’s experiences, Ann realized that she herself had also been abducted and her memories started to come back.  This helped her to accept the facts as to what had happened to her son and what his origins were.  It was interesting to read their stories and see that there really are no other rational explanations for some of the events that had happened throughout their lives.   

“Walking Between Worlds: Belonging to None” definitely draws you in and will hold your attention from the very beginning until the last page is turned.  The pictures and drawings throughout the book also really add to the reader’s experience of learning and understanding what is happening.   The story was very interesting and unique to read.   However, the font used in the book was not very easy on the eyes and I found I had to take frequent breaks while reading it.  Despite this minor flaw, I think that anyone interested in the subject matter of extraterrestrials will enjoy this book.
