A Perfect America

De: Peter Meredith

Narrado por: John Eastman

Phil Tarsus is a dreadful instrument of State justice. He's an Inquisitor, a man who makes a living rooting out and executing those people who have been charged with treason. Guilt or innocence mean little to him - he has quotas to fill after all. Yet when he unwittingly stumbles upon a secret involving someone high up in the new American government, he becomes a target himself. Unfortunately for Phil, there's nowhere to run that the government can't find him.

In the year 2122, in the perfect state of America, the government owns everything...from the shoes you wear, to the apple you eat, to your next door neighbor. The government owns everything and is everything. Under these conditions Phil can trust no one but the man he's slated to murder next.

incredible

I now have a new favorite author. the story, the plot, the twist, and the bang were great. can't wait to read/hear more.

Good book but way to much bible talk!

Would you try another book from Peter Meredith and/or John Eastman?

Yes

Would you recommend A Perfect America to your friends? Why or why not?

No. Interesting story but it contains to much bible talk. I almost gave up on the book.

What aspect of John Eastman’s performance would you have changed?

Nothing

Did A Perfect America inspire you to do anything?

No

Any additional comments?

A pretty good book but for me it was ruined by too much talk about God and Jesus. So I would not recommend this book to anybody who does not like to be preached to about Jesus and God.

A MUST READ!!!

Warning, the contents of this book are addictive, you find yourself restless, unproductive and flat out unresponsive. If you experience loss of social skills, family life and or sleep deprivation; buy another novel by Peter. This story immersive, complex and masterly crafted. It poses the question, what if we continue down this path we've started. What if opportunity gave way to "equal opportunity". If faith gave way to "facts". The depth and evolution of the character keeps you wanting more. As you explore the perfect America, you can find yourself introspecting and really learning about yourself as well as the world you live in.

Interesting concept, a bit preachy, poor narrator

This was an interesting concept. Although, I felt a bit like I needed a tinfoil hat! Many of the concepts and beliefs that Meredith’s characters preach are thoughtful and based upon historical truths and biblical parables but difficult to imagine America getting to that point. The media having so much power though is not a far stretch. He has created an extreme world, but that’s where Meredith thrives! This is not my favorite of his books but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The narrator was tough. I didn’t care for his cadence. It was too Captain Kirk. It made the story hard to listen to at times. I have my faith in check and don’t mind “God talk” but it may be too much for some. Thus this book gets an overall 3

A Parable and a Warning!

This amazing piece of fiction is also a warning of where our country is headed. When truth becomes subjective and lies become truth there is nothing solid in which to stand. Phil’s eyes are opened by an unlikely character. The journey is a harrowing one however! Twists and turns and switchbacks lead to an exciting well written read that had me hooked from the start!
