Fatherless

A Novel

De: James Dobson, Kurt Bruner

Narrado por: Bernard Setaro Clark

The year is 2042, and the long-predicted tipping point has arrived. For the first time in human history, the economic pyramid has flipped: The feeble old now outnumber the vigorous young, and this untenable situation is intensifying a battle between competing cultural agendas. Reporter Julia Davidson-a formerly award-winning journalist seeking to revive a flagging career-is investigating the growing crisis, unaware that her activity makes her a pawn in an ominous conspiracy.

Plagued by nightmares about her absent father, Julia finds herself drawn to the quiet strength of a man she meets at a friend's church. As the engrossing plot of FATHERLESS unfolds, Julia faces choices that pit professional success against personal survival in an increasingly uncertain and dangerous world.

FATHERLESS vividly imagines a future in which present-day trends come to sinister fruition.

Frightening

I pray that God will intervene before the world gets to this dreadful place. But at the rate it is going the transition specialists will be unfeeling robots by the actual 2040’s. Dear God save us from ourselves!

Great Story, Voices are not creative

Would you consider the audio edition of Fatherless to be better than the print version?

I have not read the printed version

What did you like best about this story?

I like that it looks into the future of where liberalism could take this nation if we let them. Great concepts and interesting characters. More than one point of view.

What aspect of Bernard Setaro Clark’s performance would you have changed?

The mens' voices were pretty bad. They did not sound very natural at all. The women's voices were not very creative either.

Thought Provoking

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Anyone interested in getting a glimpse into the future of the family needs to read this.

What did you like best about this story?

These authors produced a masterful work of fiction that shows what life inlooks like in the future when society refuses to be governed by God's Word. What's right becomes wrong and what's wrong is somehow altered into what's right. Value and sanctity of life slowly diminishes from people's awareness. The mind blowing part is that this story was also created using data that demographers use to calculate projections about population in the future.

Which scene was your favorite?

I lost my breath during the scene when Matthew (I think it's Matthew) the care taker choses not to switch his clients oxygen tank and walks out of clients home knowing he got away with murder. Sharing God's truth angered the kid So much he committed murder to stop himself from having to hear he follows a lie.

If you could rename Fatherless, what would you call it?

No other title would work

Any additional comments?

What an amazing film series this could become with a movie director whose a gifted and talented visionary!

They don't make movies like this anymore though

Eye Opening!

I don’t typically like to read this genre, however, because Dr. Dobson was a part of its publishing I decided to try it. I’m so glad I did! This book was eye-opening to me in many ways. The story showed me how things will be in the future due to our selfish ways of thinking and living. It also made me aware of how the media and government try to control our perspective.
