Acerca de esta escucha
How much loyalty does a mother owe to her son? And how does a doctor choose between faith and science?
Christine Garrett is investigating an unusual malaria outbreak on the south coast of England. As she threads the connections between the dead, she discovers links to her son and the charismatic leader he follows. In finding the source of the spreading plague, she is forced to decide between her old faith and the reason that has brought her to a lightless place.
Frightening, gripping and with unexpected twists, The Pattern Maker is a timely story of the dangers that arise when ideals, technology and human talents are perverted by absolute belief. It explores the human cost when people are seen as means not ends, asking questions with no easy answers.

We live in a world where respect, gratitude, and appreciation have been replaced by efficiency, dismissiveness, and even fear of genuine connection. Sometimes, we don't stare up from our screens and devices long enough to realize there is even another person on the other side of the tweet or email. "Is anybody out there?" One thing is for sure: This speed of life has taken a toll on our basic use of good manners and etiquette. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the decline of professional business communications.

This personal story about a spiritual journey away from Christianity is an honest examination of what we can know about God. Popular religious beliefs and practices are challenged, with potential new information for those who may be questioning their faith. After formal academic study of religion, Baptist minister David Ramsey became agnostic and left the ministry altogether. In this book, he shares how his search for truth led to personal doubts about the foundation of Christianity, the resurrection of Jesus, and eventually the very existence of God.

Many of us are starting to become tired of this game of life. We have been comparing and striving all our life. But no matter how much success we have achieved - we are still hollow and still have found nothing fulfilling. We don’t even know if happiness exists because it is no longer a living thing in our experience - it has become dead, as we only know it as a concept or memory. We have sought self-help advice, philosophies, and religious teachings to transform ourselves, but have not gotten anywhere.

The machines started popping up around the world. The offer was tempting: with a simple blood test, anyone could know how they would die. But the machines didn't give dates or specific circumstances - just a single word or phrase. DROWNED, CANCER, OLD AGE, CHOKED ON A HANDFUL OF POPCORN. And though the predictions were always accurate, they were also often frustratingly vague.

A great thriller on a topic that is getting more a
Would you consider the audio edition of The Pattern Maker to be better than the print version?
The audio version is well done and a pleasure to listen to. But the two are different when you wnt a book you want a book, when you want to be read too, you want to be read to. And while it isn't an essentile feature the cover is great!
What did you like best about this story?
Bio terrorism is in the news right now. Envisioning how it could both happen and how difficult it is to stop makes a great read and listen.
What does Emma Powell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her voice is great to listen too - but as an American we all love a british accent.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, but i couldn't - it took several.
Any additional comments?
Its really well done. Loving foward to more from both Lim and Powell
