A Fanciful Flight of
Imagination! July 19, 2008By Jim Nichols, Artist/Lecturer/Author of "Persistence of Memory" and "Case Files Revealed: The UFO Art of James Nichols"
With her new book, “Flying Between Heaven and Earth”, author Gina Jones brings us a fanciful flight of imagination that is both highly entertaining and yet thoughtfully compelling. Her tale follows the perils and pitfalls of a darling novice angel, named Nicole, who is caught up in her first harrowing experience of modern ‘reality’ on planet Earth as a flight-attendant trainee. Nicole’s rookie misadventures unfold into a more vast drama of good and evil each playing out their respective competitive roles as humanity hurtles toward a perplexing and prophetic destiny in 2012.
Thru her engaging narrative, Gina reminds the reader how our lives are all intricately layered, interwoven and unique as we follow along our individual paths of self-discovery. Having experienced a full career as a flight-attendant herself, Gina reveals her own keen observation of how our culture’s hollow, self-defeating passion for material gain blinds us from the dazzling discovery of our true spiritual identities.
Through her cast of characters, Gina also shares a seriously thoughtful examination of the possible future scenarios humanity may be facing as we approach this prophesied nexus point in time…2012. Does humanity face ultimate obliteration or sublime renewal? Join angel ‘Nicole’ as she seeks the answers…
A great read for someone in
need...of an intro to some spiritual issues April 3, 2008 By Eric Rehnke "Spiritual Traveller" (Irvine, CA, United States)
Two concepts were presented in this book, no, actually three, that make this an important book for someone searching and asking questions about what is going on and WHY?
The concept of spiritual creatures, angels and demons, having meetings and discussions about what to do about things on Earth is a very new idea for most of us. I thought that it was a war between good and evil. But, the more I think about it, the idea that Jones proffers makes a bit more sense. I can even picture all of it happening just as she describes. Good spirits and bad spirits argue about the outcome of things and do their best to influence us humans in this "free will" world. And may the most influential win it all. And yet, the idea that these "good and bad" spirits are just part of a larger "game" and are playing parts even makes the concept more interesting and compelling.
Another concept that fascinated me was of the "veil of forgetfulness". This is what happens when we, as multi-dimensional creatures enter into this three dimensional existence. Our "reentry" dazes us and causes us to forget who we are until we can awaken to our condition. Of course, if you accept the idea that we re-entered this existence by choice, you could argue that we agreed to forget ourselves for a time. How else could we expect to live here like this is all there is and we are playing for keeps?
And the third thing I enjoyed was how our guardian angels interact with us and influence us while we are living our day to day lives. And that all the experiences we have in this life are planned to teach us something. Of course, since we are in a "free will" world, we don't do the right thing too often and have to pay the consequences for our actions.
Okay, that is four concepts. But, you get the idea.
Jones writes in a lively style and breaks the book up into lots of chapters since most of us don't have long periods of time to devote to reading these days.
Oh, and I almost forgot, the Mayan Calendar is featured here and how it relates to 2012. Now, this is an area where a number of people have wildly different theories over its significance and what is supposed to happen when 2012 rolls around.
Ok... five concepts.
This book presents one picture and googling 2012 will garner LOTS of others. There are references in the back of the book to get you started.

Flying Between Heaven and Earth lifts the Spirit and awakens the Soul to soar beyond our current beliefs into a higher state of awareness.
Thoroughly entertaining and a great read!
I Just Loved It!!! January 29, 2008By Lanaiya King
I read Flying Between Heaven and Earth and just loved it!!! What a pager turner!!! I had so much fun because I read it while flying to the east coast for Thanksgiving. It was just so very captivating and also filled with spiritual guidance and principles. I found myself looking at the people sitting around me and wondering what I could learn from them, and even studied the Flight Attendants looking for hidden agendas of the Light!
I just adored the ending, and as I read the last few pages, as with other great books I've read, was sorry for it to be done; almost like losing a good friend.
This book is a must read, whether flying between Heaven and Earth, or just after the plane lands on Earth!
My Hat is Off to Gina E.
Jones! December 2, 2007By Pastor Floyd
Gina E. Jones' ability to draw the reader into the natures and circumstances of her characters is superb! Nicole, the angelic heroine, was both fascinating yet conducive to one's sympathy, as she valiantly struggled with the forces that bear upon all of us humans, as we, too, are obliged to struggle with them.
Through Ms. Jones' imaginative genius, I flew between Heaven and Earth!
Inspiring! November

With its centuries of Light Beings remembered for their services on Earth and Heaven in dealing with the ever-pervasive dark forces, this story highlights the awareness of the one angel that holds the hope for humanity in the days ahead.

A Gift to Humanity! October

This book is a gift to humanity. It is genuine, bringing hope and faith to the reader. I found that the minute I opened it, I was compelled, I could not put it down. It took me on a journey into what is truly and really important in our lives. Each chapter brought me to a realization, of how our lives intertwine with certain people and events that show us the miracles, that there is something more guiding us.
This book is a lamp in a great sea of darkness, it is the inspiration that gives us hope, in the end it will make your heart sing a new song!
An apocalypse story with a
celestial
twist, and a riveting read from cover to cover Oct 6, 2007By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
Former flight attendant and later founder of the spiritual message-delivering company "Scene The Light Productions" Gina E. Jones presents Flying Between Heaven and Earth, an original novel of angels set in the bustling modern day. As the divine cosmic plan for the Earth nears its 2012 culmination, as predicted in the Mayan Sacred Calendar, global chaos, bizarre weather, worldwide terrorism, and an increased fear of flying permeate the world.
Infinity Airways, an airline operated entirely by angels, strives to move people toward their higher purpose and aid spiritual evolution through opportunities to balance their heavy karmic and emotional baggage. Amid this divine work, one angel named Nicole, who volunteers to be an Infinity Airways flight attendant, unwittingly falls from grace when she becomes fully human. Caught in the war between Dark and Light, and enticed by the temptations of Darkness, she must learn to confront her human weaknesses and shortcomings in order to play her role to help save humanity in its final days upon Earth.
An apocalypse story with a celestial twist, and a riveting read from cover to cover.
Wow! and...Wow! September
14, 2007By Terrance R. Snyder, a well read retired blue collar
I had intended to read only the back cover, because I was already into another book, when my wife brought in 'Flying Between Heaven and Earth'. Ok, I read the preface and then Gina's message to the readers, and I was hooked! In fact, I couldn't put the book down. I related to a number of the characters and not only did I identify with their circumstances, but in the end, realized that a deeper knowing within me had been triggered. I got it! I understand!
Gina Jones is brilliant! I felt more enlightened and was actually 'moved' to take steps forward in my personal life after feeling stuck for a long time. The intrigue of this book, and its blending of Spirituality with human need, struck a new cord, a very positive one for me. Thanks Gina. Now I am waiting for your next book.
I've recommended this to all
like-minded friends! September

This is a story of hope and redemption. Did you ever wonder how an Angel earned the status of Archangel? I hadn't either until "Flying Between Heaven and Earth" landed on my doorstep. I was riveted and transformed by this 'factional novel'. It had been many years since a book spoke to me like this. Truth is woven throughout, like triggers, that ultimately brought me to a point of surrender, and a new level of awakening in my personal life.
Gina's first effort at flying solo is an E-ticket ride. This felt more like riding first class in a hologram, while viewing a bigger picture than mankind could ever imagine.
You will love this book! Now to see it come to life on the big screen. Stephen Spielberg, are you reading this?
Consiousness Raising! August 5, 2007By Luz Hanaii, a poetry lover and writer
Flying Between Heaven and Earth has provided a greater awareness of the Mayan Calendar and the year 2012 for me. I found myself late at night unable to stop reading. Gina Jones has done a wonderful job in making the characters come to life. Soon into the reading of this book, I realized that this book would make a very exiting and fun movie. This would be a good avenue for non-readers to be aware of the cosmic changes that are soon to come in the near future.
A must read for truly spiritual enlightening!

A Must Read. . .
A great read with a
captivating "higher" perspective! June 25, 2007 By Karen Stone "DreamBeats CoCreative Coach"
I just finished reading Flying Between Heaven and Earth for the second time ! I was captivated by Gina's story and read it through the first time as quickly as possible - - - I HAD to find out what happened !! Then, realizing there was deep wisdom behind the story itself, I read it again, focusing on the incredible spiritual and consciously evolved perspective Gina has presented about this most incredible time in the history of our planet - and humanity itself. If you have studied, or ever felt an intuitive glimmer of interest in, the Mayan Calendar, angels, ancient wisdom, the evolution of consciousness or the escalating rate of change in our world, I would highly recommend that you pick up Flying Between Heaven and Earth as soon as possible and enjoy it!
Gina's characters are engaging and my imagination ran wild with the many dynamic settings in which the story takes place- from the glamour of Fifth Avenue in New York and the high decadence of the Las Vegas Strip to the heavenly council chambers where the Ascended Masters meet to offer us humans the support we need to successfully face the "end of ages" that will be upon us in a few short years.
Gina gives us a new look at the place we stand in history in the form of a GREAT story that is filled with hope and exciting twists and turns!!!
I recommend it
wholeheartedly! June 25, 2007 By Carla L. Rueckert-McCarty of L/L Research (Louisville, KY United States)
How would you like to be invited to sit in on a conversation between nine gods, goddesses, angels and sages from the Buddhist, Hindu, Islam, Christian, Mayan, Egyptian, Aztec, Zoroastrian and Jewish traditions?
That's the neeting Gina Jones creates in her novel, Flying Between Heaven and Earth. She peoples her world with the Prince of Darkness for a villain and a young and clumsy angel, Nicole, for a heroine. Nicole is a junior librarian in The Hall of Akashic Records and comes to Archangel Michael's attention when she finds a lost volume of the archives by falling into a bookcase and bringing it crashing down. On top of the jumble is the missing book.
She takes the book to Michael as he sits in on a meeting of the Council of Saturn, where the Council of Nine are in session working on the problem of how to help Earth as it approaches the year 2012. As Nicole enters, Mother Mary, Goddess Tara and Kuan Yin say, in unison, "Humans are still learning. They won't understand non-judgment until they know compassion."
How do humans find compassion? Nicole plunges into the earth scene we all know and love to find that out and emerges triumphant despite the enormous temptations of haute couture and fine living that Ashton, AKA Prince of Darkness, offer her. Do yourself a favor and sign on for a ride through Nicole's world. Find out what she did, and get ready for your own angel wings.
Miss Jones' background of 27 years of experience as a flight attendant or, as she prefers to be called, a Sky Goddess, informs and partially forms the style and environment of her venture into fantasy, science fiction and romance. Oh yes, and philosophy. There is a lively conversation throughout the novel on timeless topics such as good and evil, graduation, polarity and free will.
Miss Jones kindly gives to The Law of One, by Ra, which was channeled and published by our research group, credit for being a source of much of the novel's underlying cosmology.
But mostly, Flying Between Heaven and Earth is a good read and I recommend it whole-heartedly.
Piercing the
Darkness! June 25, 2007By Doug Berlie
Flying Between Heaven and Earth is a must-read for anyone trying to make sense out of our modern world! Gina E. Jones does a magnificent job tying together some of the recent events with an angelic attempt to help humanity as 2012 and the end of the Mayan calendar approaches. I found myself sometimes laughing out loud and sometimes crying with the predicaments Nicole, the main character, finds herself in.
Anyone reading Flying Between Heaven and Earth will identify with the characters and situations and see that while we have help 'from above', angels, like humans, have their own challenges to overcome!
A FALLEN ANGEL June
19, 2007 By Dorothy, A Reviewer
An angel falls from grace and takes on the traits of a materialist woman. Angel Nicole is a new flight attendant on Infinity Airlines operated entirely by angels with the passengers paired as seat mates to work out their earthly problems and move to a higher plane. The compelling story moves at a fast pace as Nicole is faced with one calamity after another. In her first book, author Gina Jones, weaves the the characters in unusual relationships in their effort to complete their journey before 2012, the cosmic plan prophesied by the Mayan Calender. A must read for the believers in angels, the Mayan Calender predictions and spiritual development.
A very fun ride and an easy
read! June 18, 2007By Tricia McCannon, The Mysteries Expert, Horizons Unlimited Productions
Flying Between Heaven and Earth is a fun, entertainingly glorious romp through the trials and tribulations of being alive on planet Earth. It has everything from ETs to Ascended Masters, sex to shopping, angels to demons, romance to mystery and is multi-leveled to boot! It takes us from the pits of addiction and despair to the heights of heaven, and it does this all with a joyful, upbeat smile!
Great Read!!!
June 14, 2007 By GAgirl "becky" (ga,usa)
This is really a great read!! Gina Jones has a hit with her first novel!!! No matter what you believe, this book will make you think! As a flight attendant for a major airline for over 30 years, I can truly relate to Nicole's plight!! Miss Jones's personal knowledge of the airline industry makes for a believable storyline. She has made me want to research the "Mayan Calendar" and look more into my own spirituality!!
If you only read one new book this year, let it be this one!! I can't wait to see this book on the "Big Screen" & anxiously await Gina's next bestseller!!!
Reconnecting your
hardware and your software June 13, 2007 By Karen Majorowski - Editor of Daily Guide to the Mayan Sacred Calendar (Longmont, CO)
Flying between Heaven and Earth by Gina Jones is all about reconnecting parts of our self that have been disconnected for along time. Never have I read a novel that speaks so directly to our changing times. Having traveled a path of self-discovery my library is full of self help books but none has inspired me more than this refreshing look at life from above and below.
In 2005 I was introduced to the Mayan Calendar, according, I might add to the schedule of my own soul's purpose. My world view was expanded beyond belief and I joined the ranks of the newly enlightened souls on our planet. Knowing the true nature of the earth and we who inhabit it at this time was mind altering and truly brought me home to my self, reconnecting my minds hardware to the software of the heart and Divine Consciousness. The message of the Mayan Calendar, the cosmic design and universal pattern inherent in all was being revealed right on schedule.
It's a message beautifully told in Gina Jones' novel. It breathes new life into our old paradigms and belief systems opening up a portal to a unified field of consciousness. The journey of Nicole makes you laugh and cry and her innocence and honesty makes you question your own personal journey. Flying has always been a metaphor for freedom, especially self-realized freedom. Expanding your world view is what Flying between Heaven and Earth is all about. It's about integrating polarities and healing separation. Balancing Karma requires our full attention, and assists us in allowing the very best in ourselves and in the very best of this world to emerge. This book is right on schedule.
I met Gina on the super highway of the web, one of the many synchronicities gracing my life since opening to the Mayan Calendar. The connections I've made because of the Mayan Calendar speak volumes to the truth inherent in the universal language of oneness and light. Gina Jones is a true emissary of the light pouring in right now. Because creation is accelerating at such a rate, the Mayan Calendar end date being Dec. 21, 2012, more people, especially young people, prefer the medium of film as apposed to the time it takes to read a book. My two nieces can't wait for Gina's book to be made into a film. They are already in touch with parallel universes and their interest in the supernatural and paranormal is unprecedented.
Gina better hurry up, only 4 years left to write a sequel.
ANGELS?
June 12, 2007 By R. Edwards (Atlanta, Ga)
Flying Between Heaven and Earth was recommended to me by someone who knows that I am not a believer in angels. Since I am not "enlightened" the book remained unread for several weeks. One evening I glanced through several chapters and the character development grabbed me. Frankly, I could not put the book down. Gina's ability to contrast lives and relationships is interesting reading even for the non-believer. It is an excellent novel and I read it as such. Now I am anxiously awaiting the next episode in the angel life of Nicole, the central character.
Did I enjoy the book and would I recommend it to others? Since action speaks louder than words, I have purchased 15 copies for friends and associates.
This Is Your Captain Speaking
June 7, 2007 By Frederick M. Fox
I am a retired airline captain, and also a teacher and student of metaphysical science and philosophy. Gina Jones, a retired airline flight attendant, has blended her airline talents and experiences with a unique understanding of spiritual metaphysics, and other knowledge that I am also familiar with, to present this timely work for the benefit of the masses who need to be brought up to speed very quickly about events transpiring in our world.
Therefore, I recommend this book very highly and hope others will enjoy it as much as I did.
Aloha, Captain F.M. Fox
Better Days to Come
June 7, 2007 By Sara J. Malanca
Flying Between Heaven and Earth leaves the reader with a hope that better days can be in their future. It has enough spirituality in its pages to make you happy and give you hope. It also has enough current day crisis to make you relate to the current situation here on earth. There are plenty of heavenly ideas to make us want to believe in a "better place". Archangel Michael is enough of hunk to make us think "romance novel", and Nicole is a woman that we can relate to.
All in all, it is a novel with a very good message that can leave readers in a better mental/spiritual place.
