After watching a brief interview with the famous cult leader, Isaiah Hoffman, Tyler Caldwell is intrigued by the multimillionaire who reportedly invested all his fortune in a cult of survivalists. Isaiah Hoffman, the leader of a religious survivalist cult, is said to have invested all his income in a place known as the Gardens of Eden. Tyler, a media reporter, is intrigued by this man whose views contrast with other religious views in the sense that he believes that there is no God. However, he accepts that Christ existed but states that Jesus was not the Son of God. He prophesies the collapse of society, and he builds the Gardens of Eden in an unknown location in New Mexico to safeguard his followers when this collapse occurs. Tyler visits paradise, and he is enchanted by the scenery of the place. After taking a tour of the place, where the people are encouraged to live without modern facilities, he makes a huge resolve to leave his former life, and later on, he joins the cult. While he's in the cult, Tyler, now Lysander, notices suspicious things concerning Isaiah Hoffman. He unearths deep secrets buried by the philanthropist, and he is at a loss for what to do. What was the prophet lying about, and who is Isaiah Hoffman? Will Tyler confront him with his findings, or will he move with the flow to aid peace? Get your copy of this enchanting read and quench your thirst for the unknown.

This insightful book, the gardens of eden by d. chris lemme, is an intriguing read that brought the possibility of life without modern aid into my mind. Isaiah Hoffman and his team built a paradise in a desert in New Mexico with only little aid from the outside world. I was impressed with a few things concerning this book. Foremost, it was mind-reeling, as I was amazed at the idea of survival without technology. Isaiah predicted the collapse of society, and I saw some truth in his predictions. Consider the Roman Empire: they were so strong and mighty until the Britons won them in battle. The author of this book made me realize that the USA may be the strongest country today, but some other nation is sure to topple it someday. This fascinating read was laced with romance, as Tyler had some exciting adventures with the women in the cult, most of which I enjoyed reading about. By the way, the adventures were highly detailed, so beware of the explicit mature content in the book. On the other hand, Tyler's character was somewhat gullible, as he was easily thrown off balance with his suggestions. The book was an interesting read, and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Do take time to check it out.

Sincerely, I was offended to realize that Isaiah Hoffman didn't acknowledge the fact that God exists. He was adamant with his religious ideas, stating that Jesus Christ was a prophet but no son of God. I am religious and not spiritual, but I still found it hard to read on after realizing that Isaiah's view of religion contradicted mine. Nothing else bothered me about this book apart from the religious aspect, and if you agree that God exists, you too may find it hard to finish the book. However, it was a highly enchanting read, and I'm sure you'll love it.

This book was professionally edited, as it contained only a few errors. From my standpoint, the appropriate rating for this book is 4 out of 5 stars, as I did not see any reason to rate it as perfect. It was a nice read, and I certainly enjoyed the reading process, but certain factors, such as suspense and thrill, were lacking. The mood was somewhat calm and mild, but the pace rose and dwindled with time. Check it out, and satisfy your curiosity.

In conclusion, I appropriately recommend this book to lovers of romance, fiction, and fantasy. If you're interested in a sustainable life without technology, one that involves a multimillionaire who believes in the collapse of society, check out this book. It's certain to blow your mind.

This is a great and compelling review. The summary is also very clear and engaging.

A society can collapse for various reasons, as history proved many times. Our western society might fall, and in that case, the collapse would lead to devastations following food scarcity, fall of our civilized society, lack of medicine, and even more. However, I have to say that I'd rather die than live as a peasant. That said, I'm curious about this novel. Thank you for your great review!
