Thought provoking

Jeff did a wonderful job thinking through this story. The begin was a bit slower, but then it picks up and continues to impress. Such a wonderful way to portray the gospel and shows the hope we have in Christ.

You won’t be disappointed

Great storylines that are not only riveting but also well-thought out with great attention to detail. Great for all ages with a wonderful message of hope.

Entertaining & Suspenseful

Though this was not the usual genre I listen to, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was very well written, entertaining and suspenseful. Dr. Phineas Cook believes the Garden of Eden truly exists and he just can’t seem to rest until he finds it. Phineas just wants to prove the garden exists however he soon discovers there are others with less than honorable reasons who want to discover it. When Ruth LaPhage offers to finance an expedition to find the garden Phineas declines realizing her reasons are to enter the garden and take from it. Unfortunately things go awry from here. I found I really had to listen and pay attention as there was a lot to this story, however it was well worth the effort. It was intriguing and at times quite action packed. The biblical references intermingled with the technological aspects in the story were quite fascinating. I am a devout Christian so I was interested in seeing how the story would all end up. There were tragic moments in the story as well as exciting ones and all in all it was a very entertaining story narrated by a talented artist. Paul Curtis did an exceptional job with the narration. He has such a talent for bringing all the characters to life and making listening to the story a wonderful experience. I received a free copy of this audiobook and have voluntarily provided an unbiased review.

FAITH MEETS AI

James Bond meets Oral Roberts and Stanley Kubrick.

I made it halfway through. The narrator was not bad, but not the best.

Not for me.
