Good job in plot creativity, overlapping storylines,and characterizations. Clear writing that could be not he'd up by working with a strong editor into more elegant prose. you did An amazing job of creating An antagonistic tone towards Suba from the first words. While fun, the coincidences in your plot may open you to the same criticisms that Dickens endured. overall I enjoyed the read...keep writing...only one inaccuracy in the final chapter disturbed me. Revelation is singular.
It's a good read... Dan Brown wannabe... Sometimes it's hard to follow all the concidences and how the author ties in all the tiny details.. but what the heck... it's fun
The author has done a fine job in doing the research for the information given in this book. It is rich with information which would intrigue everyone equally. My only complaint is that the book ends on a very dull note. The end part could have been more action filled.
Very interesting, just waiting for the next one, Mr.Medler. Really and for sure. I am a 74 yr. old grandmother and always dreamed of writing this novel. Thanks so much. My favorite times in History. I'm ordering this book for my daughter's library. And so she will read it.
Slow start but sure picks up speed! Very entertaining. Does need some work though. As the last commenter put of, "still needs some polishing". Had a hard time putting down the second half!
Good! Very Good! Congratulations to the author. I can't wait to read more books from him. At some point I felt lost with all the explanations but not for a long time. Too much text in French though, I had to keep scrolling down looking for the English translation. Bit all in all the best book I have read for a long time
The story was interesting, with lots of actions. I did not enjoy the author's style of writing, and I felt that the book was in the pre-edited version. It still needs quite a bit of polishing.
I finished reading Quatrain last night. It's not a stretch of the imagination at all to see this book do very well in the printed book market. Quatrain has a kind-of Da Vinci Code type of a feel to it. I liked the multiple character building, it felt similar to how Stephen King has many small part characters. All in all, I had fun reading Quatrain and even found myself peeking ahead during the exciting parts as if I couldn't read it fast enough.
Started of interesting and then too many different story plots, too many leads to follow and up to 15% of the book nothing made any sense. Sorry if I'm been harsh but when a book grabs the attention should keep it somehow, It has potential but needs to be cleared from a lot of unnecessary stories within it.
I absolutely loved this book. It was fast paced, action packed and very well
researched. I agree with a few others that it would make a very good movie.
This was a good story with lots of action. There was one large unanswered question but that was easier to overlook than the author's somewhat unprofessional style of writing and lack of a good editor. But I'm not sorry I read it.
It was a little distracting when you introduced 11 year-old Justin Idris on page 8. You introduced his mother as Amy, and then called her Karen on the same page. Other than that, I was enthralled with the first ten pages and looking foeward to reading it all. God bless.
Very goo0d book. Pity some of the hook ups with other characters was a bit too twee, but very enjoyable book. Would make a good film starring Nicholas Cage!
This book is definitely in the quality and suspense of Dan Brown and his DeVinci books. This book will keep you on the edge, (got me in trouble with the wife, couldn't put it down.) Great history, I mean this was a great book.
This is by far the best ebook I've read from this website. Great job with the research and keeping the suspense going! Hopefully, it has been prophesized that there will be more books from you in the future!
Great read. Author blends present with 16th century Nostradamus -back and forth. Always on the edge for some new turn. A master in the making - Author, that is.
