When Dr. Tom Greenbaum faces that question after successfully discovering the secret to time travel, he knows the time, place, and event he will witness: the death and failed resurrection of Jesus Christ. Dr. David Goodman, Tom's colleague and closest friend follows Tom into the past, attempting to avert a time-space catastrophe, but forces beyond their control toss them into a dangerous end game where they are tempted by evil characters, betrayed by friends, pursued by an assassin from the future, and haunted by a demon that cannot be killed.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"What surprised me, with [Robinson's] take on the possibility of two 21st century men meeting Jesus, was the utter lack of predictability.... He offers a new perspective on ripping apart the time-space continuum I am shocked no one has ever considered before now." ( Round Table Reviews)

"[A] thrilling and fast-paced 'what if?' scenario." ( MidWest Book Review)

"[A] rollicking adventure.... The story opens explosively and is laced with suspense and humor. Robinson writes quite well and is an up-and-coming author to watch...we'll hear, read, and see a great deal more from him in the future." ( Christian Book Previews)

What about R. C. Bray’s performance did you like?

Everything!! He is awesome! My favorite since becoming a member of Audible. In fact, I just used his name to search for new books. He makes the characters. He makes it so you feel like you are in the book and not being read to. Sometimes I forget that there is one man talking, not multiple characters.

Any additional comments?

There are some parts that are very frustrating but overall the story was very intriguing. Time travel to the time of Jesus. I had to download. I like how they protrayed the relationships between the 12 and Jesus. I also loved how it all came together. It is a very interesting read.

Interesting Concept

Any additional comments?

Interesting story of time travel, which always makes my head spin. My biggest problem with the book is that one of the protagonists, although Israeli and grew up in the Jewish faith, has become an avowed atheist. He is a brilliant scientist married to a devout Christian and has absolutely no knowledge of the New Testament of the Bible. For example, something simple as knowing who Lazarus was, I would expect a scientist to have a clue. And surely he would have heard of Jesus walking on water. And the excuses he comes up with to explain away Jesus's miracles make no sense, and are lame reasons, coming, again, from an intelligent man who created a way to time travel.

Great premise. Badly done.

I found the book to be simplistic and very onesided.I was definitely expecting much more.

Excellent!

I’ve listened to many Jeremy Robinson books and have thoroughly enjoyed them all. He is obviously a believer and reflects it in some of his books. Kudos to him. Can’t wait to listen to more of his.

Storytelling at its finest

What an interesting and trippy way to tell this story… I loved every minute of it. As always, an impressive job by Mr. RC Bray.

Didymus

Admittedly, I was reluctant to give this a go. However, after listening to many of Jeremy Robinson’s books, I chose to listen. I was not in any way disappointed. Thank you to Jeremy Robinson for this work and to RC Bray for his performance.
