Product Description
FROM THE ICE...

A mammoth, flash frozen in solid ice 10,000 years ago is brought to the surface by a team of scientists. An act of sabotage frees the giant from its icy tomb and reveals the secret held inside.

OUT OF THE MAMMOTH...

The body of an ancient woman, cloaked in furs, slides out of the mammoth's belly. But it is not the woman that holds the team's attention...it is the object she is clutching...a device created by an advanced civilization.

THE HUNT IS ON...

The device is accidentally activated, summoning forces who seek its destruction. It is the key to mankind's salvation and freedom from the men behind the curtain, pulling the strings and leading humanity towards destruction.

Good vs Evil. . . . . But which is which?  
I have quickly become a Jeremy Robinson fan. I have bought and read all of his published novels so far. I will pre-order his next available title. I don't do this for just any author, only authors whose books I know I will truly enjoy.

This novel has action, suspense, thrills, good vs evil overtones, some science fiction, and religious threads as well. Jeremy Robinson manages to wave all this elements together in a very good manner.

It may not be Paradise Lost, but if you enjoy thrills and stories that move along like an Indiana Jones movie, you will love this one.

Great Sci-Fi/Adventure Combo  
I am a big James Rollins fan and was recommended to read Robinson's books. I sure am glad I did because this was a great read which reminds me very much of Rollins' early works. I have read some of Robinson's comments and one of the things I liked about this book is that there was a bit more sci fi and monsters than some of Rollins later works. This book reminded me a lot of Deep Storm by Lincoln Child, but it went a lot farther in actually introducing you to the aliens and their intergalactic war. I liked that a lot; I felt that Child did not show us enough of the Sci Fi side of Deep Storm.

Another great think about Raising the Past is the moral questions that it brings up. It certainly is a novel that made you think. I downloaded it for free on WOWIO and was certainly happy. I am currently deployed in Afghanistan and really enjoyed the escape to the Arctic. Great job, Jeremy. I have since ordered the Didymus Contingency, and am very excited about that being a Christian. I will certainly be buying your future novels!

Eh  
I did enjoy this book it just seemed liked there was something missing in the story. Other than that it's a good quick read and worth your time if you like the author.

Raising the Past  
Good book. A little short, but well written. Certainly looking forward to the sequel. I Emailed Mr. Robinson and he said one is planned but will hinge on sales and reviews.

A good read, enjoyed it a lot.

Raising the Past  
This book is sweet!! I totally loved it. Jeremy Robinson has an incredible imagination. Action all the way through. Anyone who doesn't like this book needs to go back to romance novels! I'm off to buy Didymus right now!
