Thanks for the great review! I like the idea of a sci-fi book that mixes with religion and biblical prophecy. This book sounds like a thrilling story and I love series so I’m looking forward to diving in to this one.

I like that the author in his book brought together a young boy and a police detective. Although the main motive for fighting good against evil is standard, I like that the writer contrasted virtues and flaws. It is commendable that the author gradually developed the plot and dynamics of the plot.

I enjoy thrillers, but this one may include a bit too much fantasy and sci-fi for my liking. I do enjoy stories with a strong but powerful plot line of good vs. evil, but I'm not so sure this book is for me. From the sample, it does seem well written for those who enjoy this genre. Thank you for your honest review!

This is a very good insight of the book and curiosity is definitely on. I am really interested in that stone that Kurt found. I really like novels that involve detectives ;you never get bored when reading about them,if the book doesn't satisfy you. I also like that this is a sequel book so, the next one should offer even more.

This sci-fi fantasy thriller looks interesting. The possible link between the mysterious stone that Kurt found and the murder case investigated by Detective Bailey is striking. Also, it is striking that the plot is dynamic and full of action and suspense.

Thanks for reviewing, The focus is good versus evil.
How do you destroy evil?
The battle between good and evil is as old as time itself and has yet to produce a victor.
I think the termination of evil is a broad idea, maybe time some day will produce a victor.
But in the main time, good and evil will be growing as wheat until the day of harvest is fully come, that's when the Lord of the harvest makes his final decision.

While the plot seems complex, I find the old good versus evil trope to be too overused. I will skip this one.
