About this listen

When brilliant archaeologist Dilara Kenner is contacted by Sam Watson, an old family friend who says that he has crucial information about her missing father, Dilara abandons her Peruvian dig and rushes to Los Angeles to meet him. But at the airport, Sam speaks instead of Noah’s Ark—the artifact her father had long been searching for—and the possible death of billions. Before Sam can explain, he collapses. With his dying breath, he urges Dilara to find Tyler Locke—a man she’s never heard of.

Two days later Dilara manages to track down former combat engineer Tyler Locke on an oil rig off Newfoundland. Her helicopter transport goes down well short of the oil rig’s landing pad and Dilara and those aboard nearly drown. No sooner is Dilara safely on the rig than she convinces Tyler the crash was no accident. Tyler agrees to help her uncover the secret behind Noah's Ark and, more important, her father's disappearance. As the picture begins to come into focus, they realize they have just seven days to find the Ark before its secret is used to wipe out civilization once again.

With a chilling premise and a blistering pace, Boyd Morrison combines all the best elements of a blockbuster thriller with an intelligent and fascinating exploration of one of the Old Testament’s great mysteries.

Noah's Ark Meet Da Vinci's Code

Similar to the Dan Brown book. The Ark contains fairly cinematic writing. You can see how this could be made into a movie either for TV of the theater. The tale is engaging and contains some of the trademark trivia minutiae that Dan Brown wows us with in his books. If you are fan of the Dan Brown books, you will like this. If you are not, it's still worth a listen.

One of the best book

This has been one of the best action packed book that I have read. The only negative is the lack of romance that would have made this book outstanding

Very "Dan Brown" expect without the patience.

I do really appreciate the technical and scientific accuracy. I really like the open-minded take on religion and the Bible; making them believable again, but I think Dan Brown has ruined me. Throughout the story, I couldn't help but think this felt a lot like something he would write off he was in a hurry.

Interesting premise

I enjoyed the story very much. The author got the infomation on automatic weapons wrong. The AR-15 is a semi-automatic weapon. The weapon that looks like an AR-15 but operates on semi or full auto is an M-16. I have used both.

Long on action fighting, short on story

Two dimensional characters, no depth, very much stereotyped. Handsome hero, beautiful archeologist, diversity covered sidekick. Lots of fighting, hero always escaping. Once in awhile the author remembers this is supposed to be about the ark and saving the world.
