Altar of Eden

A Novel

By: James Rollins

Narrated by: Paula Christensen

“Every James Rollins delivers mach-speed mayhem, throat-clutching suspense, high-style adventure, and a terrific story told terrifically.”
—Steve Berry, author of The Romanov Prophecy

The thriller king praised for his “edge-of-your-seat excitement” (San Francisco Chronicle), James Rollins storms the New York Times bestseller list with every novel he writes. With his latest breathtaking blockbuster, Altar of Eden, Rollins takes a breather from his Sigma Force adventures (Map of Bones, Black Order, The Judas Strain, et al) while delivering all the action, surprise, and intensity for which he’s well known—and loved. Combining science, history, and breakneck suspense—and a secret tied to the Book of Genesis—Altar of Eden is sure to satisfy every James Rollins fan while winning over a slew of new converts.

captivating

Wow very intriguing, captivating, story. Enjoyed story and theme, creative plot and theory. I will listen again and I do not do that often.

I love James Rollins!

This is one of his earlier books and he gets better over time. I particularly like how he always ends with what's "fact or fiction " it definitely makes it more interesting. I can't say I really cared for the narration. The narrator was too fast, not allowing time to digest what you heard. Sometimes I couldn't even understand her. This is why I would rather read.

A good James Rollins book

The premise that the book is based on is interesting. It also helped to have the author's comments and explanations at the end. It's definitely worth the download and time!

Gripping Story

I loved it. Well researched book with human emotions. Everything I expected and even more

mediocre

I have read and enjoyed other books by this author but this one not so much

Not Rollin's Best

This book reads like a bad movie on the SYFI Network

Good story!

Great story! I wasn’t used to James Rollins being narrated by a female so that took a little bit to get used to. Paula did an overall good job, but her accents were a little difficult...not many non-Cajuns can do the accent well. But she gets an A for effort! Overall I would recommend this to anyone!

Loved It

You can't beat Rollin's for a great roller coaster of a story. He takes you on a journey of man's experimental obsession with animals, the devastating effects, between the animals and mankind. The lesson's learnt. He is a great story teller will have you on the edge of your seat. The narration is OK.

Awed yet again

I love this book so much! Every twist and turn has you on the edge of your seat! The narrator is also a natural for this book. She expresses each emotion and character so well.

Good story...bad accents!

If you don't like it when narrators miserably fail at attempting accents, stay away from this book. It is really distracting.
