Review of 'Enoch Rising' on kindle vella
I started reading this kindle vella story because I saw it on a facebook post and thought it sounded intriguing. I was so wrong. This book is downright mesmerizing.
The author does a wonderful job of weaving narratives past and present into each other as well as profiling characters that make them not just interesting but irresistible. Even though flawed and very human, I wanted to find out, no, I was desperate to find out what happened next.
Mr. Perkins has an awesome style of giving detail of surroundings and people that are just enough to intrigue without going so far as to lose interest. I also loved the little details. The descriptions of why an assassin has a certain tattoo, the keeping of dialogue relevant to the time period it’s from, the clacking of heels in an empty hallway as a scientist walks determinedly.
All of these add up to an immersive experience that I thoroughly enjoyed.
This book reminds me of Dan Brown’s ‘The Divinci Code’ only better. Time jumping back and forth from ancient Egypt to modern-day New York with a stop off to explain the origins of an assassin have me completely engulfed in this story about a lost book of the Bible and the ramifications of it.
I’m reading this story on kindle vella and currently, I’m up to episode 23 and anxiously awaiting the next episode. This story has been added to my growing list of vellas I will recommend to readers looking for an amazing read.
Fans of Dan Brown’s book and anyone who loves action, adventure, historical, fiction, and thrillers will love this story.
