The Sign by Raymond Khoury
2.0
Finally...I finally just got irritated with this story that I was determined to be done with it. I appreciate how passionate Khoury is about his contention that religion is tearing us apart more than it's bringing us together, and in some ways I can agree...too much hate is preached by leaders of many religions now, leaders who must know they're subverting the Word.
I appreciated the pacing of the book...breakneck action with characters who never show up on the same stage until very late in the book. I didn't believe Matt's character could be as knowledgeable about as many subjects as he was: guns, hand-to-hand fighting, crashing cars; stealing cars I DID believe...the rest, not so much.
Gracie...I was supposed to identify with her, but we never connected. Father Jerome? Another near-hit.
My stubbornness is the only reason I finished..that, and how much I liked his other book, The Last Templar. Kept hoping...
