By: Tom Lowe

Narrated by: Mikael Naramore

Length: 17 hrs and 34 mins

Publisher's summary

When former CIA code breaker Paul Marcus receives the call, he thinks it's a hoax. He's asked to analyze a cache of papers found locked in an old trunk. They were the last manuscripts written by Isaac Newton. Using Newton's math and notes, Marcus begins to see a pattern leading to a prophecy so frightening, to reveal it will change world events.

At the time of his death, Newton was searching for ancient biblical codes that may open a locked window into future events. Newton helped explain gravity - but could he do the same for human destiny?

Another High for Lowe

Spellbinding story with lots of turns and twists. Superb narration of this nifty narrative. I'm ready for the next Tom Lowe novel, but this one will be tough to top.

Excellent Audiobook!!! Cross the board GOOD!!!

What did you love best about Destiny?

I am not one for giving reviews other than stars! But this book was just cross the board good! This was a "Dan Brown" but with a religious setting. Action, suspense, drama with a touch of romance! It was well "read" by Mikael Naramore. Tom Lowe did a great job with this book!!!

What other book might you compare Destiny to and why?

Dan Brown - Angels and Demons, DaVinci Code, Inferno and his other one!

No lasting impression. OK for read

Not one of the best books I I have read but certainly not the worst perhaps it is just not my usual genre

The Newton Compact

If you could sum up Destiny in three words, what would they be?

Corruption + Absolute Power

What did you like best about this story?

The story was constantly on the move ... The author planned well and he always had control of the story not vice versa

Which scene was your favorite?

Fernier relating his story and gaining a desire for one more quest in his live

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Oh, what a web we weave

Any additional comments?

Long story, but there is never a dull moment...the readers never rushed or got bored with the story, and that in its self was a real pleasure

Kept me entertained

I liked the story a lot. All the turns keep you wondering. It is a go read. My only turn down was to discover that it was an undercover plot

over reaching plot, let down for biblical sci fi

There were too many instances of plot advancements that were beyond unrealistic (and I love sci fi).

Destiny

This ways a great story. It was well crafed and even though it was long the story was excellent!

Fun adventure!

I'm not sure where the other commentors were coming from, but I really enjoyed Destiny, narrator and all. It's an exciting adventure, with all the elements for an entertaining listen. Hidden codes, murder, deception, conspiracies.

The narrator did a fine job too in my opinion! Listen to the sample, you can tell for yourself if you do. It moved at a good pace. Lovely escapism fiction!

Too Much Fat

I love Tom Lowe's writing. Hischaracters are wonderfully drawn but this particular book was over long repeated over and over and was hard to finish. if he had not repeated his information so many times and put so much information into each chapter the book could have moved much more quickly and would have been much more interesting to listen to.
