I really appreciated that every time a puzzle was solved three more appeared it was realistically set up and taught me a lot of the British experience during WW II. (Please look up the grammatical definition of “farther” and “further.” I can’t believe no one caught that.)

My German friend asked me why don’t we “just get over” World War II; Germany has. I firmly believe something is wrong with German culture to participate in and then “get over” the War. This illustrates the kinds of depravity done in the 1930s and 40s—but most of the population participating in one way or another. And it told the effects of people housed in concentration camps. (Why did she KEEP mentioning the gods? They were overwhelmingly bullies.)

Lots of politics, battles, and sex. I discovered in Chapter 7 that Achilles and his companion, Petrocles, are lovers. A large portion of the book covers the years of the war with Troy about Helen. The reasons for this war are pride and honor. Stupid reasons to kill tens of thousands of people.

What does a food detective do?
Some of this was very dry, even though I have a food science background. Other parts were fascinating. It’s amazing that the origins of these diseases are discovered at all. (The narrator mispronounced several
scientific words. I suggest they’re looked up before saying them.)

I don’t know how she came up with all the cute story lines! (PLEASE look up the difference between ‘farther’ and ‘further’ in a grammar book.) I look forward to spending more time with these characters.

I kept feeling this is Book 2, as there were many important people & situations referenced, especially in the first couple of hours, that I needed to know but didn’t. I’m not familiar with feeling lost. I enjoyed the book when I knew what was happening. AUTHOR (& editor): Please look up the grammatically correct way to use “further” and “farther.” You used it incorrectly all through the book.

There was some sex in another of the series, but it’s been multiplied here. If that’s what you want, go for it. There is about half story line; the rest is sex.

This is the story of a long-married childless couple who run an orphanage in Haiti. There, they meet and fall in love with a preschooler with, it turns out, a very rare brain tumor. They take her home to Detroit with them, where they discover she’s got maybe 4 months to live. They go to extreme lengths to find a cure, extending her life by several years. In the meantime, the family, friends & caregivers all fall in love with her. The reader will, too. The author reads his book and really tries not to break down. But I did—several times, even though I’m not a crier. I’m very glad I listened to this book and learned about this disease and followed this family during their quest. You will, too. (Socialized medicine would not have done these Herculean efforts to extend her life, but the author is wealthy-ish. She would have died quickly if left in Haiti.)

I was hesitant about the length of this novel, but I ended up thoroughly enjoying being in that world. It began with Atlantis and included its destruction. Two seemingly disparate story lines came together beautifully. Note: PLEASE look up the grammatically correct uses of ‘farther’ (distance) and ‘further’!

I really liked the first two books, but not so much this one. His vision of the afterlife made no sense, was confusing & creepy. I kept losing the thread of the story, and that’s not something I do.
