Synopsis
IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME, AND WITNESS ANY EVENT, WHERE WOULD YOU GO? 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.
Customer Reviews
Poor attempt to merge time and Jesus
To describe this book as anything other pure religuous fiction is a travesty. There is no science , unless you count a flash and a bang as some form of time travel. The author's truly pathetic attempts to convince us that all the events in the Bible are somehow gospel,(sorry, an absolute oximoron if I ever heard one)and his stubborn refusal to address paradoxes , which to be fair no one really can understand is annoying and irritating in the extreme. If you are a religious this Book is for you but if a sci fi fan forget it, as in my view it does nothing to forward the genre in any sense whatsoever
What a start
Vivid and spectacular. Really paints a picture of what life could have been like in Jesus's time. As a religious person this book really touched an imaginative point in me. Fantastic Read and well done!!
Time Travel - What If?
The time travel theme of this book attracted me as I have always had an interest in the subject. I found the book to be an interesting, fun holiday read. What if we could travel in time, where would we prefer to go? Who would we like to meet?
