Even though I knew Abel's end, I was really sad. So yes, Abel was my favourite character.

I think my favorite one would be Noah. He was obedient. God chose him to build the ark. However much people ridiculed him for building the ark, he did not stop. He pushed on with God's command.

I think that the sort of expansion on Cain that is not found in the Bible was very interesting, but who doesn't majorly sympathize with Abel. He is just the definition of a character who deserved better.

Not read the book in full, but with fellow review handy and from the sample glimpsed me remember one and only --Abel. Of course, the entire story revolves around him. His tragic sufferings seem unfortunate, and the unfavorable life path he has to go through makes readers empathize about his fate.

I loved all three – Abel, Cain and Noah. There were all amazing characters. They all affected me in different ways. It's really hard to pick one out of the three.

The vantage point the author gave to Cain was interesting, Adam and Eve were pretty non-excistent in the grand scheme of the story. So I would stay Cain.

Abel was my favourite character in the book. The portions described Abel made me emotional and I couldn't complete reading, without tears from my eyes.

My favorite character remains Eve. Eve was zealous and wanted to make an achievement. Even though she was convinced by the snake, she also was interested in Gods knowledge. She was also able to convince Adam to eat the fruit. I also like Abel. He was gentle and loved God.

Abel's humble personality got me glued to the book till his death. I couldn't help but shed a tear when he died.

Cain definitely was my favourite character. This is because I found it difficult to predict him. In the end I kept wondering what choice he would finally make. I was disappointed with it but anticipating it was exciting.

Even though just reading the title let's people know the ending of Abel. It still made me sad and he was a great character.
