The Footprints of God Audiobook

" I can't put this down! After all the heavy books I've been reading this was a great mindless one! "

" Good, fast-paced thriller about artificial intelligence. "

" This was a great conspiricy thriller, and I would've rated it higher, but Iles took a Biblical and philisophical bent that was way out there. "

" A great read once you get into it. "

" Such intricate details, amazing plot. Really makes you think! "

" What I love about Greg Isles is that he tackles so many different subject areas and settings in his thrillers. This one begins focused on a secret government research lab. There, a select group of scientists work to create a supercomputer modeled after the human mind that will be far more powerful. Dr. Peter Tennant was appointed by the president as the ethicist on Project Trinity and is troubled by aspects of the work even before his closest friend on the project dies, supposedly of a stroke. Tennant and the other scientists on the project each exhibit neurological problems that started after a brain scan as part of the project. As he delves into his friend's death, Tennant struggles with narcoplepsy and has visions with religious aspects that he comes to believe may be memories. His psychiatrist, Rachel Weiss, tries to help, and both end up on the run across the globe from those who wish to protect Project Trinity at all costs. Tennant and Weiss are determined to stop the supercomputer before it causes the extinction of humankind. The book's themes are large and thought-provoking. I found the characters less interesting and never was quite invested in their personal stories, other than, ironically, that of the doctor who dies at the beginning of the book. The action sequences are overall compelling, if a bit hard to believe. This is one of several books I read while recovering from surgery I had in early summer, so I wasn't feeling great and perhaps that colored my view of the book a bit. At times it just didn't hold my interest, but I finished it and found it worth the read. "

" Great book, I love all his books "

" bukunya lumayan seru, tapi banyak penjelasan-penjelasan yang panjang & akhirnya bikin agak membosankan.. "

" Interesting read, but ultimately unsatisfying. "

" ughhhhhh.... I found this book to be a total snore! And so, so weird! "

" This was an okay audio book, but not something I'd want to read. "

" I have read several other Greg Iles books that I really did enjoy.. This one not so much! So, I guess I was disappointed but I will read another of his because I have faith I will like the next one I try! "

" A great book much like a Dan Brown novel. I much enjoyed reading about the super computer threatening society and the main character's fight for survival. It was a compelling and interesting story with something for everyone "

" This is a good book. I almost gave it four stars, but it's not quite that good. It has an interesting sci-fi concept: downloading a human mind to a computer. If you like the techie sci-fi books, this isn't bad. "

" too scientific for me "

" My least favorite Iles book. "

" Good; Begins well with doctor overseeing at the President's orders the plan to make a computer modeled after the human brain; each of the participants gets side affects including his of believing he's been sent by God to stop the project. Drags toward the end. "

" Well written & intense. "

" Terrific thriller! "

" I love this author nis books make you really think about how little you know about your government. Mankind is ingenious, maniacal and fascinating. "

" Love a good futuristic type book "

" Very good book. Interesting fiction that is simlar to Dan Brown. Fast paced and makes you think. "

" It was a great read and stimulated my mind but not Amazing. "

" this book was absolutely amazing. pure genius. "

" Good page turner. Quick read. When you want your mind to stop thinking about anatomy and histology, this book is a good distraction. "

" Weird premise. Good read however. I like the other books from this author better. "

" I loved this book. Totally riveting! "

" Good book - sort of like The Da Vince Code and Angels and Demons in that it makes you think about your beliefs - this time about creation, Jesus and the Resurrection, and such. "

" Good plot, nice story, not much of a mystery, cat and mouse labyrinth...expected for an action/thriller novel,...but I enjoy reading it with a bit of suspense "

" Iles can move from WWII to the New South to mysteries to near-future science fiction, which is what you have here. It was provocative with its theological aspect. "

" I really enjoyed reading this, the first book by Iles that I'd read. Lots of action as well as interesting ideas and plot twists & turns. Well done! "

" This book was sci-fi cool. It was imaginative to the leaps of quantum physics. The ending went a little over board, but still it was a darn good read. Nice change of pace from the romance thrillers I read so often. "

" This was really good and very well researched by the author. If you are looking for a science versus religion book, this will hit the spot. "

" I like Iles, but this one didn't do it for me. I can only shake my head and ask what was he thinking? "

" not as good as most Greg Iles books "

" movie material with the leads being played by Jim Caveizal and Sandra Bullock. Very insightful and thought provoking. "

" Started out great. I blasted through the first few hundred pages, then it went downhill, blasphemous even. Definitely not written by someone with any understanding of God. Even taking that into consideration, I found it hard to finish. "
