Review of Killing Abel
[Following is a volunteer review of "Killing Abel" by Michael Tieman.]
In the Bible, there are certain parts that may leave readers feeling confused or incomplete. Killing Abel by Michael Tieman is a novel that attempts to fill in these gaps by telling the story of the creation of the earth to the time of Noah. The book explores the consequences of man's disobedience, including their exile from the Garden of Eden. It also delves into the lives of Adam and Eve and their children, including Cain and Abel, who represent good and evil. The novel follows Adam's struggles to obey God's commandments while also dealing with the conflict between his beliefs and those of Enoch. If you're looking to gain a deeper understanding of the story, this book is definitely worth checking out.
This book is excellent, offering a wealth of captivating qualities. The plot progression is particularly noteworthy, delving deep into the reasoning and providing new insights beyond what I already knew from the Bible. To my surprise, I encountered a wealth of intriguing information and scenes. The plot unfolds in a linear fashion, beginning at the beginning and building towards a satisfying conclusion. I particularly appreciate the way Michael Tieman explores the reasons for Lucifer, demons, and Cain's descent to hell, as well as the depiction of the flood and the creation of the ark. The middle and ending sections of the book are particularly noteworthy, as they are filled with engaging developments.
The overall theme of the book brought back memories of many questions I had as a child. To my surprise, the author, Michael, was able to answer all of them, including how jealousy led to Cain's murder of his brother Abel and how Noah was able to construct the famous ark. I was impressed by the fact that not only were biblical questions addressed but also scientific ones. For instance, the story of Noah delves into the origin of certain precious stones. The author takes the limited information from biblical texts and expands upon it to create compelling stories that are accessible to all readers. I found the book to be truly remarkable and a credit to the author's hard work. While some elements of the story may be considered overly fictional, it does not detract from my admiration for this excellent book.
One downside to this book for me was the underdeveloped character of Abel. I found that he was not utilized to his full potential and did not leave a lasting impression on me. I believe the author could have done more with this character, which is why I would rate the book as 4 out of 5 stars.
The book was exceptionally edited. I didn't see any errors while reading. I would recommend this book to readers who love Christian fiction out there.
