The book Killing Abel by Michael Tieman is a book written to help curious hearts get a fill of satisfaction for their curiosity. Killing Abel would help each of its readers know the details that were overlooked in the story of creation. Ranging from the lives of Lucifer, Adam and Eve before and after the fall of man in the garden of Eden, the array of curses meted out on them, how they faired after being expelled from the garden, and their ordeals while they were trying to cain a son, not to forget the chaos that erupted when Abel was killed by his brother cain, the whole lots of battles fought to get back right with their creator, God. The book would also help anyone who finds it hard to let go of their ill-fated pasts, have the know-how and applications of deep reflections, and also how to discover the good that every situation brings about either a positive or negative. In the book Killing Abel, one would see how well love and a good justice system put in place can help achieve a good social order and how law and its sanctions on the other hand further help with the deterioration of a good justice system. And just as the Bible says, that the ways of God aren’t our ways, this book helped achieve that since the writer made sure that it took a while and mostly lots of reflections before each writer gets to understand what message God was passing across to them.

I love this book so much that it would be a part of the best books that I’ve read in 2022. The part that got me to experience a sporadic mind-shift was that notion of Eve being the culprit that brought about the fall of man at creation was nullified, I had to take a back seat and then fully calm myself down in order to let the whole story sink into my system. For every reader or to be readers of this book, you all be should be ready for a whole lot of turns and twists. Michael did a good job in trying to create a picture of what and what was probably left out in the real story that the Bible made available to us. For example, I’ve personally thought that Methuselah was just a man that trodden the surface of the earth and then left just like that, unknown to me, he was the perceived role model of the only man, Enoch who had faith in God and in the process built an ark and by doing that, he got to save his family and every animal's God wanted to be saved from the impending flood.

I don’t know the particular mode of writing deployed by Tieman on here, but it’s a very good one in that it helps every reader see and understand clearly what was being said. I’m very sure that every reader of this book would agree that this book is a well planned and thought out one therefore there’s nothing not to love about this lovely book, Killing Abel.

When one is perceived to do a good job, the best thing to do is to be grateful for such a gesture. Therefore, I’ll be rating Killing Abel by Michael Tieman a 4 out of 4 stars for being such a very lovely story with no perceived traces of typos.

My recommendations would be for all and sundry, irrespective of one’s religion, race background, or political standing, there’s a lesson to be learnt by everyone. Children and as well as curios teenagers are however not advised to have a go at this book. More so, fathers, mothers, teachers and politicians and so on should have a look at this book, for it will help them make some reasonable decisions and adjustments in their daily lives.

This novel was a nice book in many areas. Although I didn't agree with all of the writers stories I cant deny it was a good read.

That’s actually a very thoughtful perception, and since the book is in the nonfiction category, I think it’s all well and good.

I didn't love the book as much as you did but I admit that it was a very good read. The imaginative writing of Michael was on point.

I enjoyed reading this book. Although I have my reservations it still didn’t change my general view of the book. It was interesting though. Nice review.

I have read this book and I completely agree with you that it is a book that satisfies curiosity. Before this, I had never heard of the term "caining a son" . Great review.

A very concise and sincere review this is. Killing Abel is also amongst one of my best books for this year. I had to go read again because it was just so mind blowing. And I must say, my understanding and relationship with God strengthened after reading this book. If only all stories in the Bible were written like this. How different Christianity would be today.
