Critic reviews

"What surprised me, with [Robinson's] take on the possibility of two 21st century men meeting Jesus, was the utter lack of predictability.... He offers a new perspective on ripping apart the time-space continuum I am shocked no one has ever considered before now." ( Round Table Reviews)

"[A] thrilling and fast-paced 'what if?' scenario." ( MidWest Book Review)

"[A] rollicking adventure.... The story opens explosively and is laced with suspense and humor. Robinson writes quite well and is an up-and-coming author to watch...we'll hear, read, and see a great deal more from him in the future." ( Christian Book Previews)

Honestly, I'm surprised I haven't heard of a story like this sooner, and I'm so glad Jeremy Robinson brought it to life! Absolutely incredible story that will keep you listening nonstop.

Awesome story!

Awesome book!
A real page turner!!
Love how this author sucks me into the story right away!!!

Loved It!!

I think every one has thought about what it would be like to ge back in time. This reminds me of my own hidden desires to go back. Jeremy chooses an event and then creates what you would have experianced it, if you were really present. Jesus as a normal guy, with little pranks and indepth descussions. I was very impressed the whole concept of the book.

I really enjoyed this book!

I am such a sucker for time travel but this book does it really well! It covered all my logical questions about not only time travel but what it might be like for a modern man to travel back 2000 years and try to survive without screwing up the past.

The reader was excellent and conveyed the attitude of the characters quite well.

It was a fantastic premise and carried off quite well. Bravo!

Loved it!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. Jeremy Robinson and RC Bray are always my go-to team. excellent job . Definitely worth the credit.

Interesting idea, will not be listening again.

At the right price, I could be convinced.

Was The Didymus Contingency worth the listening time?

This book gave me a different perspective to consider, which I always think is worthwhile. Was it life-changing, no.

Fun take on the Jesus story.

What did you love best about The Didymus Contingency?

Interesting angle for the retelling of the Jesus story. The time travel makes it fresh to our current take on history.

The death of Jesus was memorable.

Have you listened to any of R. C. Bray’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was the first. Not bad.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Enjoyed the take on history.

A mind bend

Great narrator and author. I loved having the Bible come to life. The writing was well done, but there was one love story that I found a bit hokey. It came out of no where with no real build up to make it seem natural. Made me barf a little. Sometimes characters would sound like another character. A few times Tom didn’t sound like himself. But it didn’t happen often. Bray did a great job narrating Legion. Putting together the entire timeline and how the chain of events is circular, seems like a great conversation to have while high. It definitely makes you go “whoa.” Or at least it did for my simple mind.

Exciting and Heart Warming Story

RC Bray once again provides an outstanding performance. He is a master of many voices.
Jeremy again writes an exciting story that keeps me entertained and wanting more. These two are a winning combination.
