Have tried downloading it twice.

I had to re-listen to it, so I could put together certain items. It was hard. The reader sounded like he had taken a couple of Vicoden or took voice lessons from Sylvester the Cat. The music of Michael Jackson's Thriller was kind of annoying. It needed a different introductory tune. It really wasn't my cup of tea, so my comments can be thrown out if you like. The story just didn't flow fast enough for me. I agree a lot with what Andre said. This book WAS hard to follow and I lost interest in it at times.

Mr. Schefrin has an amazing knowledge of all things Israeli and Jewish. The details about the city and the history really drew me in. At times I did find the story a bit difficult to follow as there were so many characters and they were so intertwined. I just can't say enough about the details in the book though. I feel like I learned so much about Israel after finishing this book. Really amazing story. Mr. Schefrin has an amazing knowledge of all things Israeli and Jewish.

Suffice it to say that I, too was worried about rapture occurring before Mr. Schefrin got out the last chapter, and not being around to enjoy it.... Thanks again for a GREAT book, and now I'll head back to Consider the Elephant! George, Fort Worth, Texas Great ending, and I won’t spoil it for you here.

The world the author has created is one so completely alien to my experience I find myself reviewing the feed to make sure I don't miss any plot elements. Mr. Shefrin does a great job of explaining to the reader the theology involved, but you need to listen to at least a few chapters for this information. Trust me, it comes together and is explained bit by bit, but in a meter that becomes familiar the further you get into the story. I especially enjoyed the description of the polo player getting coated in manure, <i>"... like a chocolate-covered strawberry"</i>. Great visual, that one. And I couldn't stop laughing at the prayer scene with the Goys. <b>Hysterical</b>! I'm sure my co-workers were convinced that I'd taken leave of my senses. Again, another winner for Aram Shefrin. Please keep 'em coming! -George, Ft. Worth, Tx; www.thepublicdomainiac.com I recently added this to my aggregator, and am really enjoying the story so far.

I can;t find the word for it. It can be a little hard to follow and is not one of those stories you can sit back and relax in because one must really concentrate to keep up. The characters need to be more defined. I mean that I find it difficult to know who is speaking sometimes. I find this story a little vague sometimes. I can;t find the word for it.
