Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
The line that divides fiction from fact is not always as clear as it may seem.

Two plus two equals four, right? But what if just once two plus two equaled...five. Hard to believe?

Absolutely.

But for the young people whose stories are related here, that is exactly what happened. Each of them experiences something that simply could not be explained.

For instance, two boys forced to spend the night in their car during a bad storm learn the next morning that an eyewitness swears he saw four burly men inside their care scare off a gang. But who were the men? The boys were alone that night. Another time, a teen on the way home from a date comes upon strange alien forms in the road ahead. He chases after them only to discover "humanoid" imprints in the grass. Not even the local sheriff can explain it.

Mysterious sightings, alien encounters, guardian angles, ghostly hauntings, bizarre visitations...In dozens of stories teens relate real-life experiences with the unknown.

5 out of 5 stars Fascinated   June 19, 2002
I have just finished reading the book, "Face To Face With The Unknown," by Sherry Hansen Steiger. It is truly a fascinating book, I enjoyed reading it immensely. Particularly the chapters on Ghosts and UFO's. This book has my five star rating.


4 out of 5 stars True Stories are of Great Interest   December 5, 2001
I have read this book, as not only do I know the Author, Sherry Steiger, but several of my own contributions are included here, beginning with the story of my group, The U.S. Psi Squad, on PP17, and the episode involving one of my young students learning psychometry (PsiTouch) and a little piece of unknown rock taken from a very unusual place. (Michael Weingart)Michael and the Stone. (...)
This book should be a valuable reference for those trying to grapple with the reality of Psi and Remote Viewing.



2 out of 5 stars Lame   July 29, 2001
I'll be honest -- I thought this book was lame. Some of the stories were pretty good, but others (especially the chapter on Angels) were really stupid. The story about the key to the magic garden was extremely terrible. If you like the unknown, I would suggest reading other books and dodging this waste of time.


5 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC!   June 15, 2001
This is one of the most amazing books I have ever read. Each one of the stories really gives you something to think about and discuss with your friends. To think that these things really happened gives me goosebumps. The research in each section leaves little doubt that there is more than a remote possibility of X-files type events --all around us, and it makes me want to find out more! I LOVE THIS BOOK.
