Stars — I really struggled with this one & tats something I seldom when reviewing books, especially crime or adventure thrillers… But this isn’t your average narrative! Re-reading this now in mid 2022, I do feel like the theology aspects are less daunting to face and this slowed a less complicated skepticism, more of a pokey disjointed ness this time around. I'm not entirely sure where I begin while reviewing this one. The premise originally turned me off it because I don't really like reading anything to do with religion. I was afraid that It was going to be a very pro-religion, anti-atheist book, or vice versa. But it wasn't really plugging any kind of stance, and all of the extreme characters were nut-jobs regardless of their religious orientation. Which is the point I suppose. Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know! I found that the storyline required the reader to suspend disbelief at times, but you know something? I was happy to do just that, for such an exciting and compelling read!

Which reminds me, there’s a scene in which someone loses a baby, which I felt wasn’t dealt with as well as it could have been. It’s kind of mentioned in kind of a throwaway fashion and then not alluded to again, and in fact it’s never quite made clear whether the baby even existed in the first place. It seemed a little lazy, especially for something like that where I think writers have an obligation to do the job properly. I have no problem with fantastical novels - after all I gave 5 Stars to Michael Rutger's The Anomaly! I was given a Roy grace in2011 I was reading James Patterson and Michael Connelly books and since 2011 I try to buy all your books .must say I did not the cold hill books keep writing I will keep reading Reply Peter James is a British best selling writer of fictional crime novels.

Absolute Proof is a thriller that grips from the outset but it’s also incredibly thought-provoking, asking some of life’s biggest questions about science and faith, setting big pharma and high church on a collision course that could change the world. I was thrilled when Peter asked me to provide the narration for his latest, most compelling book.” Host was adapted into a made for tv movie by the US Network in 1998. Dr. Joe Messenger, played by Peter Gallagher, gives into the seduction of a terminally ill woman. He later finds that she has uploaded herself into a computer. Now she threatens to destroy his family from beyond the grave. ITV made Prophecy into a feature in 1995. A Ouija Board, an archaeologist, and a widower with his son are all connected. And the ending? Where do I start? The ending left far too many unanswered questions (see spoiler protected bit below). It was ambiguous and anti climactic and I expected more from an award winning author who has sold more than 19 million books. Absolute Proof was a meandering novel with some interesting points about religion but the unresolved ending left me underwhelmed and unlikely to seek out any of his other novels.

Absolute Proof – Peter James

What follows is a compelling story of murder and mystery told in multiple plot lines running parallel to the main story then diverging with a race against time that ends in multiple deaths. James brings up a lot questions about God’s existence and his motives. If God’s existence was proven would it unite the world or divide it even further? You will not find the answers in this novel only speculation as it is more action/adventure than philosophical. P: Its genesis was in 1989, I got a phone call out of the blue from an elderly sounding guy saying is that “Peter James the author?” and I go “Yes . . . ” and he says, “Thank God I found you! I'm not a lunatic, I was a pilot in the war, I'm a retired university professor, and I have been given absolute proof of God's existence. And I've been told you're the man to help me get taken seriously . . .” Sensational – the best what-if thriller since The Da Vinci Code ' - Lee Child, author of Killing Floor .

I wont ruin it by talking about the 3 clues suffice to say they take Ross around the world and as word of his quest and findings come to light all kinds of people enter the story from a rogue Pastor to atheists to the Pope himself! In writing this review, I have drawn on the following press interviews with the author at the time of its release: I am addicted to Peter James’s, the Roy Grace series, so I was excited to read something completely different from his usual works. Basically Ross, a well known journalist, gets a call from an old man telling him he has proof that God exists!....Ross then tries to confirm/deny this via 3 clues that the man gives him....as I said thats ‘basically’...what is involved is immense and no wonder the book was 30 years in the making!
