The Voice by Bill Myers & US/Canadian Giveaway

Synopsis:~

When Charlie Madison's 13-year old niece barges into his life, he is suddenly forced to use the Special Forces training he retired long ago. Her parents created a computer program that recorded the actual voice of God—and a radical religious group kidnapped them to gain control of the technology.

Now Charlie must come out of retirement to rescue both the parents and the program, tapping into a lifetime of experience he has tried so hard to forget. There is far more at stake than the safety of the parents or even religion. If the voice of God created reality, it can destroy it. If controlled, it would become a weapon of mass destruction making all others obsolete. The trio fights against various religious powers and major governments... until the program is discovered and played back with unimaginable results.

My take:~

In all my years of reading, The Voice is my first Bill Myers book but I can assure you it won't be my last.

Bill Myers has created an intriguing and energetic story full of characters to engage with and enjoy. Charlie's austere demeanour hides a broken spirit which is slowly brought back to life by his precocious and entertaining niece, Jasmine, the beautiful and friendly Lisa who is hiding more than her skill with a Glock, and a mission that could change the foundations of the world - literally! If that isn't enough, this is a book that is sure to get you thinking on matters of God and His supernatural power.

Fast paced and edgy with unique characters and a doozy of a storyline, The Voice is a cracking good read for men and women.

Available now from FaithWords.

Hmmmm....interesting book. Please enter me in the drawing.

I don't think I have the temperament for a military career, so that's a very difficult choice. Probably the Army.
