5.0 out of 5 stars The Ecklesia Project, February 9, 2000

"bajl" (Washington) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ecklesia Project (Hardcover)

It felt like I was there, watching it all unfold ... and being the first of a "trilogy" I'm anxious to read the sequels! I always like seeing the movie after reading a book, and this would make for a great movie. The authors very descriptive writing style allows you to follow, in your minds eye, every move of each character and know exactly the feelings of each character, what they're seeing or experiencing, ... it's definitely captivating with lots of unexpected surprises - I highly recommend this to all readers ... not just science fiction fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new dominant "Force" in Science Fiction, September 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Ecklesia Project (Hardcover)

With the style of Stephen R. Lawhead, the excitment of Star Wars and the polish of Star Trek, Ray A. Hansen has written a truly compelling piece of Science Fiction. Vivid descriptions open the book and the characters, whether good or evil, are commanding. No "fluff" here, this is a piece of Science Fiction you can sink your teeth into! Share this book with friends and family - it is refreshingly free of torrid elements that embarrass, but don't add to the content. Plan on staying up late to finish this one, and be prepared for the sequels. I'd say a new dominant "Force" in Science Fiction is upon us!

4.0 out of 5 stars A hard book to put down, November 17, 1999

This review is from: The Ecklesia Project (Hardcover)

The Ecklesia Project is a book which keeps its reader in suspense from beginning to end. Ray A Hansen has done an excellent job of sequencially unfolding a plot that makes its reader beg to read more. His allegorical usage throughout the book keeps his reader on his/her toes as they are introduced to characters, names, and situations throughout the book. I highly recommend it.
