Rating: Summary: A solid suspense mystery Review: I read this novel just to see what all the ruckus was about and what would motivate 750 people to write in here about it. This is a story about the coming of a female messiah who stirs up a world-wide tumult. Exactly what this novel appears to have done. I can't speak to the religious issues in the book because I'm not a religious person. All I can say is that this is an excellent suspense mystery, as well written as any I've ever read. If it has some controversial elements to it, all the better. Any book that can get 750 people off their cans and talking has something going for it.
Rating: Summary: Fresh and original Review: Not having any idea what to expect, I picked up and read this novel over the weekend. It's quite a thick book but it reads very quickly; very fast moving. I should also admit that I was quite unable to put it down once I started it, something I've not fallen prey to for many a year. Without question, this is a thumping good read and one I'll recommend highly to all acquaintances. If there's one novel you should read this year, undoubtedly, this timely journey into the new millennium should be it!
Rating: Summary: Great book! Review: This book was a gift, in more ways than one. I got it as a Christmas present, and have thoroughly enjoyed it. If you can afford to lose a few nights sleep, read this novel. You won't be able to put it down.
Rating: Summary: Wow! "The Greatest Book Ever Written"? Review: Is there a joke here I'm missing? This and Furland's "masterpiece of literature" are the greatest books written in 5000 years? Let me catch my breath. This is more like The Hardy Boys meet Nancy Drew At the Apocalypse. If Franklin W. Dixon were a theologian and cultural observer, this would certainly be the case. Unfortunately, Kleier and Furland are now "enlightening" Mother Theresa! LOL! A big grain of salt for these reviews. Last Day neither expanded my mind or cured my sciatica, but then I'm not "a professor of literature at a major university." Mercy!
Rating: Summary: The Truth Condemned By The Church Review: It is no surprise this book has been condemned by Rome and placed on the List of Forbidden Books. This is a book of knowledge and supreme enlightenment by a courageous author who dares shed his burning light upon the rot in the foundations of the church. The front page review in the NY Times said, " Mr. Kleier has done a service to humanity." There is no denying the power and truth in this book. The corruption it has exposd through the medium of great literature has sparked a spiritual revolution so intense that millions laugh at excommunication in order to read the book that changes lives. Jeza _is_ the New Messiah and she can not be stopped.
Rating: Summary: One of the more interesting books I've read in a long time Review: It's nice to come across a book like this. I heard it was good, but I wasn't expecting something this different. I like books that challenge me and my mind set, and this one certainly does. I also like books that know what they want to say and say it effectively, but in ways you can't anticipate. Again, this one excells at it. My only complaint is I felt the chapters on Racine unnecessarily slowed the action at times, although I found them interesting. All told, this is one excellent novel that I highly recommend.
Rating: Summary: A Book They Will Read For Centuries To Come Review: The matter of dates debated here obscures the fact that this is the greatest book ever written. All who read this masterful piece of literature will have their very soul transformed as Mother Theresa did. She spent many hours studying this book. Nothing like it has been bestowed on mankind before. I agree that Jerry Furland is also a literary giant of immense inspiration and held in nearly equal awe for his masterpiece of literature. The fact is that these authors are geniuses, prophets, and messiah-like messengers of incredible power. As a professional literary critic, I have never read anything so wonderful before. No one has.
Rating: Summary: The calendar is superfluous Review: After having read the reviews and consequently the book, I have come to the conclusion that the arguements regarding the accuracy of the gregorian calander is a mute point. The fact is that Kleier has written a great book. Is it fiction? Yes. Nobody has made a claim to the different. Anytime we blend the current and extrapolated technology of today with Biblical revelations we will have dissagreements as regards timing. The fact is, nobody knows. I was highly entertained by this novel, as I am with any well researched and vividly written work. I would recommend Kleier's work to anybody interested in this genre. For a more reality-worldly based view into the next decade, I would also highly recommend "Transfer:the end of the beginning" by Jerry Furland. We are running out of time to split hairs. Read, learn, enjoy.
Rating: Summary: my head is spinning! Review: Talk about an amazing book! It's like a magnet, you put it down and it keeps tugging at you till you get back to it. Even after I finished it, I couldn't get enough. I hated to see it end. Jon, Jeza, Litti, Hunter, I loved them--they are like real live people to me, and I miss them. I pray for a sequel, and soon. Until then, I'll just have to read it again. Please Mr. Kleir, a sequel!
Rating: Summary: It's all relative! Review: One of Webster's definitions of relative is: "existing or having its specific nature only by relation to something else; not absolute or independent." Another way of saying that the relative idea has no basis in fact and can mean whatever one wants it to mean. It's all relative, after all! The Reader from Brooklyn, NY can't accept the fact (not "idea" as claimed) that the Gregorian calendar is off by four years. But to the relativistic mind it's no problem ignoring historical fact in favor of a relative untruth to lend weight to one's favorite belief. There is no error in the fact that Jeza dies (at least) 2004 years after the birth of Christ. The errors in the Fatima letters are not made right by the earlier error in the Gregorian calendar; an error rooted in earlier error is still an error no matter how relatively simple one wants the "truth" to be. Prophesy related to Jesus' birth, life, and death were not based on relativity but anchored in real time; Christ was born on a certain (absolute) day in the past and not according someone's relative context. Kleier's double error doesn't change the fact of Jeza's untimely death exceeded the 2,000 timeline by at least 4 years. Period.
