About this listen

Gaspar De Rouse, a Templar knight, a man murdered by his brothers for the secret he possessed, resurrected and made immortal. Given a second chance at redemption he has walked the earth for over 700 years. Dominicus Bureau, a renegade priest, torn between his vows and the secret he pursues, a secret protected by an immortal. He carries a silenced pistol and uses it, often. Alex Donovan, a modern day warrior thrust into an ages old war, a war between good and evil, heaven and hell. Armed with an ancient chronicle of the life of Gaspar, Alex searches for the immortal and perhaps his own destiny. All three men, passengers on a Slow Boat to Purgatory.

The characters were engaging, storytelling masterful, and subject matter handles with the skill of an artist.

This is how the subject of Angel's and demons should be approached. This has a feel of a Dan Brown novel and Dante's inferno

One of the best surprises I have found on Audible. The story is well written and I enjoyed all of the characters. I am also a huge fan of Christian Mythology so it was just right up my alley. I do hope that the author or audible will be releasing more of this what seems to be the beginning of an amazing series.

Excellent
