Overview

Just over one hundred fifty years ago, in Berlin, New York, twenty-five-year-old Marietta Davis suddenly fell into an unconscious state, from which neither family nor physician could arouse her. When she finally regained consciousness, she described with almost supernatural perception how angels had escorted her spirit to Heaven and Hell.Her vision made her the talk of the community and a legend for generations to come.Nine Days in Heaven brings the story of Marietta Davis to a new generation. The nineteenth-century language of the original has been updated for easier understanding, but the detailed portrayal of her vision remains intact.Journey with Marietta to the shimmering reaches of paradise, where the redeemed enjoy the beauties of the new creation; observe children who died on earth as they are taught the mysteries of God in infants' heaven; and grieve at the plight of the lost as they suffer the wages of sin.Supported by biblical references and practical observations, Nine Days in Heaven is more than the fanciful creation of a young woman's imagination. It is a travel guide to the life to come.

Author Information

Dennis Prince, after working as a lecturer in civil engineering, attended Bible college and in 1976 was coplanter of the thriving Kingston City Church in Melbourne, Australia. He and his wife Nolene also published a widely used praise and worship resource in Australia-Resource Christian Music. Today he concentrates on Bible teaching and writing. Nolene Prince earned a bachelor's degree in music, specializing in singing, and after teaching school music also attended Bible college. After the loss of their first two babies, Nolene and her husband Dennis rewrote the story of Marietta Davis in modern English-Nine Days in Heaven-to share with others the encouragement they had received from its revelations. Nolene and her husband live in Melbourne, Australia, and have three married children and twelve grandchildren. Ann Richardson is an award-winning narrator. With a background of drama and music prevalent in her Midwestern upbringing, she delights in narrating fiction and portraying characters with a variety of accents, including Scandinavian and Southern U.S. Being of Swedish heritage is an important facet of Ann's life, as her father was a Swedish immigrant, and she travels to Sweden every few years to spend time with family and brush up on speaking the language. In her spare time Ann is a volunteer narrator for Learning Ally (formerly Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic), and also enjoys sculpting, painting, long-distance running, and hanging out with her family in Northern California.
