Had I Not Chosen

Book 1 of the ArchAngel Missions

De: Joshua Loyd Fox

Narrado por: Corrie Beard

"The only choice that matters, Gwendolyn," the ArchAngel said. "The choice between life and love."

An elder ArchAngel of the host was given a mission. Change the world, while changing the lives of those who could do the impossible. The rub? The ArchAngel Chamuel could only use choice to fail or succeed.

In a world that desperately needed clean, renewable energy, Benjamin Reeves created a way to achieve the impossible, but for him, it was merely fiction. On the opposite side of the country, Gwendolyn Murphy found a way for this impossibility to become reality, but for her, it was a matter of applied theoretical physics, in which she was the world's foremost expert. Two people, worlds apart, both with pasts rife with loss and pain, are given choices: to change the world, or to change their own lives. Had they not chosen the way that they had, Earth's future would have suffered for it, as would their own.

And so begins the seemingly separate stories that make up The ArchAngel Missions series.

the journey the main character took before he finally found his twin flame

I was engrossed in this book when I read it (5 stars) and was excited to listen to it just to hear it read out loud adding an additional lair of inflection to how I interpreted this talented authors words and amazing story.

a Great Book

A real page-turner: Very engaging characters but also depth and magic and a narrative sweep that never leaves these characters behind. An impressive tour de force that is always working at multiple levels, with the small human stories and the hints of expansive, even cosmic changes which are afoot. I look forward to reading the other novels from Joshua Loyd Fox. Expect to be impressed.

Cute love story with an interesting plot angle

I really enjoyed listening to this book. While the dialogue seems a little forced in a couple of places, the overall storyline was hopeful and engaging. The narration was spot on, smooth, expressive, and believable. Very impressive for a first novel and a first-time narrator.

An interesting read

Overall, I enjoyed this love story aspect. I see where some fantasy/science fiction elements become present and wished there were more. I felt the bones of a great story were hidden in this book. I loved the idea of a mystical presence trying to help humanity, but the interactions felt repetitive. I will say the narration was great and gave the characters a sense of presence. However, the plot that brings our two main characters together felt stretched out to a point that I wondered where the story was supposed to take me.

Great start

Great start to a fantastic series.

I can not wait to hear the next one.

The reader was pleasant as well.
