Andrews knows Yahweh with a true heart

Revisado: 01-07-22

Outstanding presentation, outstanding research, bringing characters to life in ways I’ve never thought of. Thank you Mesu Andrews for creating this tapestry of life to surround the biblical character of Job and his wife!

Not Christian fiction

Revisado: 10-31-21

Gives no glory to Jesus Christ, whatsoever. The author seems to know evil much better than he understands good. Endorses superstition, glorifies mankind, worships a human being, is non-biblical, and I found it appalling. Don’t bother to read it.

Story good, need a new narrator

Revisado: 10-30-18

The story is intriguing but the narrator has no idea how to use pauses. he runs one sentence into the next without a breath or heartbeat, even when the speaker is changing. you can't tell who is saying what. it is extremely unnatural and disconcerting. i will try to avoid buying anything Lamont reads b/c it is so annoying.

Awful! I will never read another Dekker book

Revisado: 07-08-17

What was most disappointing about Ted Dekker’s story?

this book dwelt on the most ignoble and corrupt aspects of unregenerate human nature, and then tied in the Bible in the last 15 minutes of the story, as if that made listening to ten hours of grotesque madness ok.

What didn’t you like about Rob Lamont’s performance?

this narrator spoke so fast it took all the fun out of listening. no pauses between sentences even when the speaker changed. words were spoken so fast they were incomprehensible. a very poor reader.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

certainly not worth ten hours of crazy.

Any additional comments?

i read Christian books for the uplifting power of God. it was missing in this book.

good story, rough narrator

Revisado: 08-21-16

What made the experience of listening to Asher the most enjoyable?

the story is pretty good except for using the name Jesus as his Greek name instead of Yeshua when none of the Greeks had heard of him yet. most of the story adhered to the biblical accounts, except for that blatant error. the narrator was a piece of work though, stopping after every phrase as if it was the end of the sentence, mispronouncing common names like Bethlehem, and a few other idiosyncrasies that made it difficult to listen to.

What other book might you compare Asher to and why?

na

How could the performance have been better?

teach the narrator to read smoothly.

Who was the most memorable character of Asher and why?

asher - throughout the story. fairly credible character.

too much demonic

Revisado: 06-23-16

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No, when the text included satanic prayers in latin read out loud i turned it off. it is probably extremely realistic - there is definitely demonic worship in the vatican, but i don't want to spend my time hearing about it.

Any additional comments?

no verbal satanic prayers. words have power and these are curses.
