Publisher's summary

When a brilliant billionaire is diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer, he realizes that all his considerable wealth cannot prepare him to meet his Maker. But he has an idea that might: he will stage the ultimate reality show. With his true agenda hidden, he auditions followers from all the world's major religions, inviting them to the trial of their lives on a remote island, where they must defend their beliefs against spiritual challenges. Oliver Finney, a feisty old judge with his own secrets, is chosen to defend Christianity. As the program takes a strange twist, he quickly realizes he is trapped in a game of deadly agendas that may cost him his life.

With Internet access monitored, Finney sends coded messages to his law clerk, Nikki Moreno. Aided by a teen crypto-geek, Nikki soon discovers the key to understanding Finney’s clues in an apologetics book Finney wrote and must race against time to decipher the mysteries contained in the ancient words of Christ before her boss dies defending them.

loved it

wonderful book. so well written that it's hard to stop listening. and the narration was great too, easy to listen to with just enough voice dirr3cnces to make the characters ore realistic. highly recommend this book for anyone 12 and up. it's pretty clean but overall the subject matter is for older kids and adults I think. supports the Christian view but does not disparage other religions.

Refreshing

To have a good book with no profanity. Wonder why I am just now seeing the books by R. Singer? I will be listening to some more.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT!!

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

I have not read the book, but the audio version is super good! The narrator is great with the voices. I loved his Southern accents!

What did you like best about this story?

The views of the different religions. Randy Singer had to do a TON of research to write this book, and it paid off.

Which scene was your favorite?

The cave scene toward the end of the book.

If you could take any character from The Judge out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Judge Finney. I would love to hear stories about his cases and life as a judge. But, it would be fun to spend time with the Swami, too! I loved his character!

Any additional comments?

Randy Singer proved that a book can be exciting, suspenseful and, at times, funny ... without offensive language. I highly recommend this book as well as any of the others he has written. I would have given it more stars if you offered them!

Very good book with twist that keep you guessing

This was a book that I really enjoyed. The narrator did an excellent job with the characters voices. I found myself wanting to listen even if I only had 5 minutes to spare. I intend to look up more books from this author and narrator.

Different story line

Very unique story line. I did have trouble understanding some areas, but I would recommend it to someone smarter than me.

Worth the wait

The book focuses on the various religions. I would find myself wanting more religion tied into the times outside of court. there is a great deal spent on coding. While my brain couldn’t wrap around that concept, it was worth racking my brain as the ending was Very powerful.

What a testimony

To all Christians, Christ Jesus is Who we should reflect. Praise be to Jesus, our Lord and Saviour!!

Unexpected Ending

I really enjoyed this book! I learned a few things, and spent a few hours contemplating what I read...very thought provoking! The plot had some strange twists, and I liked the characters - particularly Wellington...wonder if perhaps there will be a 2nd book? I would definitely recommend this book to a friend!

Interesting book

The Judge is an enjoyable read.
Absorbing plot. Good points about love. Faith. Sacrifice. Kept our interest to end.

Twists and Turns

What a great read! Characters are so well defined that you will feel like you know them. The story takes such unexpected paths that the ending is a big surprise. Hold on for the ride!
