A Must Read - Great Book!

I'm a huge science fiction fan, and I particularly enjoy stories with time travel themes. I'm also a committed Christian. I've long felt that there's a lack of quality Christian fiction, and there's almost no Christian science fiction. I can understand the difficulty in creating a sci-fi/Christian story line, but Jeremy Robinson accomplished it. The Didymus Contingency is one of the very few spiritually oriented fiction books that I've thoroughly enjoyed.

I couldn't put this book down. It was a great read on many levels. The science fiction angle was compelling. The characters were well developed and the story was creative and entertaining. At the same time I felt uplifted spiritually. What else can you ask for! I can strongly recommend this book!

Favorite Book

This is Jeremy's first book and WOW!!! It is my favorite book. I have read all his books so far and they are awesome. I can't wait for his new books to come out. If you want to read a good, fast reading book, this is defenitely it.

Promises a lot delivers so so

I was looking for another off shoot of The Da Vinci Code, so perhaps this is why this book was so disappointing. The writing for me was too bland. Robinson could have taken the theme and run away with it. Unfortunately, all he did was walk. A "nice" read, but nothing extraordinary.

What a read!!!!!!

This book has a very different premise...time travel to the time of Jesus. The story was very researched and a thrill to read. I loved the subject matter as it combined both "thriller" and religious aspects. It made me think, laugh and cry! I highly recommend this book!

Stunning Collision of Biblical History & Science Fiction

Whether you find yourself a believer of the Christian Bible or not, author Jeremy Robinson has crafted a sci-fi thriller that any history or sci-fi enthusiast will love. He has created a character, a quantum physicist named Tom, who has the brains, the ability and the resources to use science in creating a way to travel in time.

Through a series of events, he also has a strong, personal motive to travel back to the time of Jesus of Nazareth for one purpose: to prove the man is a fake. But when he meets Jesus, he is surprised at how "human" this so-called deity really is. The author paints a refreshing picture of the historical Jesus through his novel that makes you reconsider your own view of the man.

Where the author's skills shine and where the books develops its paged-turning, hard-to-put-down quality is in the way the author creates his fiction in a way that's true to the historical texts he uses as a reference. Each section is filled with dangers from the current timeline as well as dangers from the first century. Through it all, Tom continues to the bitter end in proving that his friend, which Jesus becomes to him, is, indeed, a fake. The scientist in him forces him to seek the truth in spite of his feelings.

Through the well-crafted words of a fast-paced thriller, the author takes you on a journey of one man's personal pursuit for the truth, regardless of what history, and his closest friends may think. This is one journey you will be glad you took with Tom.
