 Ad Nauseum June 30, 2008

Maui H.S. "The only book I have read worse than this was a very bad POD author. This is not to put down POD. Most POD books are written much better than this one.
I cannot believe a brick and mortar publisher edited and published this trashy novel.
There is little plot. The action is trite and cliche without a hint of suspense. I will admit the novel does have somewhat of a plot.
The plot is ruined with trite and sappy dialogue. This novel could be the result of a first year college student the dialogue and scene setting is so bad. The action is wimpy and completely unrealistic. I didn't feel any empathy for the characters at all. The characters were two dimensional wimpy and sappy like the dialogue.
If the book wasn't bad enough the reader or in my case, listener, has to put up with born again christian propaganda ad nauseum. This was my first and probably my only Joel Rosenberg novel. The editor should have been fired for letting this one go to print."
 Imaginative Concept, Mixed Execution June 27, 2008
I found this book very easy to read, and was intrigued by the concept of the Copper Scroll and following the clues to an ancient secret. It seemed a little like "National Treasure" in that aspect. The unfolding of the mystery was well done.
The story in other aspects was not as well done. There was a little that felt like "24" mixed in, some "Left Behind," and lots of personal drama and dialogue.
I expect the main characters in a book like this to stretch believability, but the husband and wife team are way past believability.
I do recommend the book, and enjoyed reading it. The disappointing elements of this book, however, have made me think it is time to put this series down and move on to something else.
 Excellent read prior to "Dead Heat" June 20, 2008
A little slow at first if you haven't read his previous books. But very entertaining and well written. Keeps you glued to the book to finish.
Wonderful continuation May 22, 2008

Copper Scroll is probably my favorite in the series. Filled with intrigue and unexpected events, once again the plot seems to be taken from current events. I never knew a "copper scroll" existed, until this book, and became more interested after finding out more about the actual artifact from a Google search. You certainly need to start with the first book, but this book makes the whole series more than worthwhile.
 Good Yarn, a bit preachy though May 12, 2008
The Copper Scroll (Political Thrillers Series #4)
The story was entertaining and well-paced. My only complaint is that the buyer should be aware that the book is somewhat preachy. I was not aware that this series could be classified as Christian Fiction. I don't have a problem with religious books, only when they are not advertised as such.
