On Amazon, this book didn’t rate very well. Here’s the chart I copied today:
Out of 102 Reviews:
5 stars - 28
4 stars - 22
3 stars - 15
2 stars - 23
1 star - 14
When I looked at it a few weeks ago, there were less 5 star ratings than today. After the ratings, I scroll down to read the reviews and I see “obvious holes” in the plot. Even so, I want to read the book. When this happens, I opt for audio and find a copy at the library. I’ve never read a Preston book and was looking forward to the experience.
Bottom line, I loved it. I didn’t see the obvious holes, but could understand why the author is getting bashed. It’s a science verses Christianity thing. I’ve noticed such books get stoned, so I tend to not listen to the negative reviews. For me, it’s an awesome audio book. But first, let me go over the key points.
Believable Story - I’m gonna say yes. I also loved the author’s writing style and the dialog was so on target.
