Reader's Reviews: In The Realm Of Eden
|
|
"IN THE REALM OF EDEN is a barn-burner. A page-turner. I can't say enough about the joy this book brought to a brief period of my life. After finishing it, I felt that I had been moved one step closer to nirvana, to the afterworld, to a more total understanding of who I am and where I've been--and, more importantly still, where I might be going. This book is the subconscious link that has been missing in my life, the link that joins everyday human endeavors to the sublimity and peace of the hereafter.
The author's use of imagery is real and effective, and the dialogue is crisp and believable. Add a storyline that only an award-winning film producer (which Emery is) could devise in that fertile and unfettered mind of his, and you begin to get the picture:
This is not a book to read. This is a book to savor. Slurp.
Five stars. And-a-half."
-Don Bacue, Executive Editor,
International Features Syndicate
From American Society of Authors and Writers - In Review
"IN THE REALM OF EDEN is an extraordinary, suspenseful page turner by an
author who possesses an unusual, but insightful understanding of the human
condition. The challenge for readers will be to keep from putting it down
before they reach the startling and totally unexpected ending. A really clever
novel from a writer with vision! This is a thriller and should be a major
motion picture."
-Tom Garrett,
Professor, Film Media Arts,
University of Tampa
"Bob Emery’s IN THE REALM OF EDEN is full of taut excitement and a wonderful storyline, it makes for a fabulous read. I could not put it down until it was finished. I would look for the next volume in this, hopefully, serial adventure. If I published books, instead of media, I’d have jumped on this great novel."
-Michael Bennett,
President, TMW Media Group
"A terrific mix of Michael Crichton and Jeffrey Deaver. IN THE REALM OF EDEN is a wire-taut political thriller, with danger all the way, a fascinating cast, and a breathless ending."
-James Thayer,
Author of The Boxer and the Poet
"From Flores Island, Indonesia, and the deep jungles of New Guinea, to the White House and the sands of New Mexico, IN THE REALM OF EDEN will shock and surprise. A riveting and frightening chase and a finale that is astonishing and unsettling and just might be a prediction of things to come. A great story."
-Richard O. Jacobs,
Attorney and Author of Crash Landing
"An ambitious new look at an old tale of deception, crisply told, with rich imagery and an ear for dialogue. Emery provides something for everyone, allowing even the most skeptical to get caught up in the interwoven tales of political intrigue, science fiction, and the human condition. We’ve all asked the question, ‘Why are we here?’ After reading IN THE REALM OF EDEN, we may not like the answer."
-Elise Warner,
News Senior Editorial Producer, New York
"IN THE REALM OF EDEN is an action-packed, sci-fi adventure that looks outside our planet and sees the nature of the beast within. It was an exciting ride, an enchanting and suspense-filled journey with a nail-biting race between rogue government agents after an out of this world visitor and a young White House aide on the run. Eden reaches for the stars and delivers a fantastic and gripping earth-bound adventure... the vivid characters spring to life."
-Michael Sarcona,
Television Producer, New York
