Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Suspenseful thriller
Review: This is one of the best new novels I have read this year. It is filled with suspenseful action and intrigue as the author follows several characters through a fast-paced mystery. Yet, it also makes a powerful statement about the ominious implications of biotechnology and the lack of ethics surrounding these developments. A page turner all the way, it includes a surprise twist near the end that keeps you guessing. If the author can keep it up, he may rate comparisons to John Grisham -- one of my favorite authors.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Edge of your seat thriller
Review: This was my first experience with James Scott Bell. If his other novels are as exciting and fast-paced as this one, then it will definitely not be my last.

As a former fan of James Byron Huggins who has been turned off by his recent nonsense which has been passed off as readable fiction, I was refreshed to read a Christian sci-fi thriller that was believable, enjoyable, and lacking in space wasting sentimental drivel.

The idea of the Nephilim has intrigued me ever since my first year Biblical Hebrew class when we studied Genesis 6 and the idea of the Nephilim. A friend and I in that class discussed a Christian sci-fi novel based upon the Nephilim, but not in the manner in which Bell did it here.

"The Nephilim Seed" touched moral themes which are ever encroaching on our post-modern society, and I believe that Bell addresses those issues in a laudable, conservative manner. As science and technology continue in their present course, Christian values and morals will likewise continue to be attacked as outdated.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Five Rivets is More Like It!
Review: You'll have a hard time getting out of your chair while reading The Nephilim Seed. The fast pace literally propells you from chapter to chapter and you'll find yourself wishing you could take the whole day for reading "to find out what happens next!" Bell's salty character "Jed" is a winner, and someone you'll root for from beginning to end.
