Title: Under Tiberius

Author: Nick Tosches

Narrator: Jonathan Davis

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 19 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-04-15

Publisher: Hachette Audio

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 38 votes

Genres: Fiction, Religious & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

A work of dangerous and haunting beauty by America's last real literary outlaw.

Under Tiberius is a thrilling story of crime and deceit involving the man who came to be called Jesus Christ. Deep in the recesses of the Vatican, Nick Tosches unearths a first-century memoir by Gaius Fulvius Falconius, foremost speechwriter for Emperor Tiberius. The codex is profound, proof of the existence of a Messiah who was anything but the one we've known - a shabby and licentious thief.

After encountering him in the streets of Judea, Gaius becomes spin doctor for Jesus, and the pair schemes to accrue untold riches by convincing the masses that Jesus is the Son of God. As their marriage of truth and lies is consummated, friendship and wary respect develop between these two grifters.

Outrageous and disturbing, Under Tiberius is as black as the ravishing night, shot through with fierce and brilliant light.

Members Reviews:

Roaches delivers!

I would imagine that this book will resonate better with Atheists than Theists. Very funny in places!

Not worth the effort

Maybe it's the effect of knowing pretty much how the story is going to end, but I found this book to be painfully boring. I gave up about 2/3 of the way through.

Interesting primus inadequately explored

Would you try another book from Nick Tosches and/or Jonathan Davis?

Yes

What could Nick Tosches have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

His exploration of the theme that Jesus was an impostor, helped by a noble birth Roman is interesting. NT borrowed too much "thought process" from modern times. Would have been more interesting if he had tried harder to capture the thinking processes of the 1st century human.

Which character as performed by Jonathan Davis was your favorite?

Jesus

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No.

Any additional comments?

I was very intrigued by the idea of this book, but the execution was inadequate. I was disappointed.

Good idea that doesn't come off

This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I was looking forward to a wry, tongue-in-cheek take on the gospel story, that was just as likely to have happened as the ones we have handed down in the Bible. I had heard Nick interviewed on NPR and liked the extract he read. But instead, I found this novel very labored, crude and too serious, so I am going to return it. I like what I think the author is trying to do but I don't think he succeeds. And it could be the fault of the super-intense, takes-himself-far-too-seriously reader, that didn't bring out a spark of humor in the chapters I listened to.

I much preferred Lamb by Christopher Moore - that was a really good listen.

What could Nick Tosches have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Shortened it, made it somewhat more humorous.

What didnt you like about Jonathan Daviss performance?

Laborious, serious, monochrome.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Under Tiberius?

I would have cut down some of the crudity and "toilet" scenes - not removed them altogether, but once the point was made, move on.

Loved it and hated it

The story itself was fabulous - a fascinating potential backstory.

The three Kiverson children have different personalities and see their mother's death differently. Kevin Kiverson wants revenge and wants the Duncan's to pay for his mother's death. He comes up with a game that might cost them their lives and the lives of their friends.

Very well written

I read a of of Christian mystery. I love when a character ha to make that challenging decision of 'me' or God. This book is a wonderful example. Thank you.

Another good one

Another thank you to Julie G.Gilbert for an interesting and also positive good read. I would recommend this to others who enjoy fast paced good books.

Another great book

This one is as good as the last one. I can't wait fo r the next one. Lots of supence

"Evening Crime Drama" Enjoyable

"It's only a matter of time."

"I don't doubt that, Patrick. I just wonder how long it will take, and how many will die before this is over."

Kevin Kiverson is just one dangerous malefactor in a family notorious for crime. He's out for revenge when he goes after Julie Ann and Patrick Duncan of the FBI. The married pair of special agents are reluctantly drawn into Kiverson's game, but the stakes heighten when the Duncans' baby becomes a target in The Kiverson Case by author Julie C. Gilbert.

I'll maintain that reading the books in the Heartfelt Cases series is good when I'm in an evening-crime-drama-like mood. The books are more like television episodes than movies, length wise, so they're perfect when I'm looking for suspense but am short on time.

Although this second book in the series can likely stand alone, I might have felt a little at sea at the beginning if I hadn't read the first book. There's some head-hopping in the story, and I had a bit of trouble keeping track of who exactly was doing or saying what, a couple times. The villain might've needed another side to make him a more believable character, and I found the story's climax to be a fairly tame one.

Still, I like how the series makes a place for faith without trying to wrap everything up in a perfect bow, and I'll certainly be going on to read Book Three.

Publisher's Summary:

From the Introduction by Eric Elder

There was a time when I almost gave up celebrating Christmas. Our kids were still young and weren't yet hooked on the idea of Santa Claus and presents, Christmas trees and decorations. I had read that the Puritans who first came to America were so zealous in their faith that they didn't celebrate Christmas at all. Instead they charged fines to businesses in their community who failed to keep their shops open on Christmas day. They didn't want anything to do with a holiday that was, they felt, rooted in paganism. As a new believer and a new father myself, the idea of going against the flow of the excesses of Christmas had its appeal, at least in some respects.

Then I read an article by a man who simply loved celebrating Christmas. He could think of no greater way to celebrate the birth of the most important figure in human history than throwing the grandest of parties for Him - gathering and feasting and sharing gifts with as many of his family and friends as possible. This man was a pastor of deep faith and great joy. For him, the joy of Christ's birth was so wondrous that he reveled in every aspect of Christmas, including all the planning, decorating and activities that went along with it. He even loved bringing Santa Claus into the festivities, our modern-day version of the very real and very ancient Saint Nicholas, a man of deep faith and great joy as well who Himself worshipped and adored the Baby who was born in Bethlehem.

So why not celebrate the birth of Christ? Why not make it the biggest party of the year? Why not make it the "Hap-Happiest season of all"? I was sold. Christmas could stay - and my kids would be much hap-happier for it, too. I dove back into celebrating Christmas with full vigor, and at the same time took a closer look into the life of the real Saint Nicholas, a man who seemed almost irremovably intertwined with this Holy Day. I discovered that Saint Nicholas and Santa Claus were indeed the same...

Members Reviews:

Well done

Great story of the life of St Nicholas. Well written and an easy read. Appreciated do the short explanation of truths vs fiction at the end.

Keeping Christ in Christmas

This is a wonderful story that reminds us why we celebrate the birth of Christ. St. Nicholas devoted his life to Christ. The story tells of his devotion to helping others his entire life, with unfaltering belief, despite persecution, in Him. The story also makes me remember my friend Lana who also lived her life with the same unfaltering belief, that her disease was in Gods hands, no matter what his plans for her turned out to be. His plan was to call her home.

Everyone in our house loved it.

This is a fictionalized telling of the life of the real St. Nicholas. The author makes a list at the end of the book to tell the reader what is fact and what was added to flesh out the story. This book made a beautiful addition to our Christmas festivities last year. We are planning to read it each year. To assist in that the book is broken into convenient sections to know how much needs to be read each day to finish on Christmas Eve.

This is a biography for everyone to read.

We started by buying one copy. We liked it so mych we bought 8 more copies for friends. From their remarks, we bought 5 more copies. again, raves! So we bought 4 more.

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 8 votes

Publisher's Summary:

The Baby Left Along The Oregon Trail & Rescued By Christian Pioneers is a heart-warming story about a poor wagon train making its way along the Oregon Trail. The train may be poor but the Christians on it are strong. A Native American baby is found along the trail by one young man and he takes it immediately to the wagon train. There are no nursing mothers on the small train and no source of food for the infant. The young man and one experienced woman and one very young woman come to a unique solution to help the baby thrive and this has a Grapes of Wrath feel about it. Still, there are many obstacles both internal and external before they reach their destination.

Members Reviews:

What a fascinating tale!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book to a friend who was going through trials. This story is proof that God works in ways that we can never fathom. Troubles we have that are so awful turn into marvelous plans in God's hands.

What about Joe Smiths performance did you like?

I really liked how Mr. Smith read the various characters - particularly the nice Betsy and the horribly nasty Big Jaw and Chigger characters.

Any additional comments?

This story had so many twists and turns along with interesting facts. I definitely want to listen to this tale again, especially when going through trials. It's very uplifting!

Hake has hit one out of the park again.

Kelly Eileen Hake knocks it out of the park again with this book and it's companion book. Proud to read it and then send as a gift to family. Recommend all I've read by Hake and her mother Cathy Marie Hake. Great writers.

Unsure.

I have loved every book this author has written,but I am on the fence with this one. It seems that confusion was a large part of the reading of this book. Starts out with the ages and talents each Darlyn girl possessed. But never an age or description of Greyson or Miles! The color of Grey's eyes,and that was it! I actually looked back several times to discover what I may have missed. I am one who loves to visualize the characters, with that one flaw my enjoyment was lessened.

Enjoyed this historical novel!

I enjoyed this book. Interesting characters, romance, humor, back in buffalo hunting days in the west. Good characters and conversations. I love this author and this was a good book!

Five Stars

Enjoyed these sisters. Can hardly wait for the next one to come out.

Five Stars

Love this Author. Such good reading for pleasure.

Publisher's Summary:

"I can hardly believe what has happened. It's utterly overwhelming, and I have no idea what to do. After all, I'm only 15 going on 16. I never expected to witness the end of the world. I certainly never thought I would be the cause of it." - Jonathan Parks

England faces utter ruin when a viral pandemic erupts in Central London. Within hours of infection, citizens become ravenous creatures seeking to feed upon and infect any living thing they can find. Swiftly they break through Armed Response teams and military units, leaving an ever widening swathe of devastation and chaos in their wake. What started simply with one boy, may now scour the entire globe. As Britain desperately tries to contain the plague, foreign powers seek to isolate themselves, while their clandestine intelligence agencies race to find the boy who may be the world's only hope for finding a cure.

Crisis Sequence picks up where Descendants Saga: Vendetta left off.

Members Reviews:

Riveting and action packed!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book because it is entertaining, compelling. I enjoyed listening to it immensely and cannot wait to start the next in the series!

What other book might you compare Rage to and why?

I am not sure what I could compare it to because I have never read or listened to anything quite like it. If anyone likes suspense and zombies and/or end of the world senarios, I say read or listen away!!

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scene had to be when Sharon succumbed to the disease in the subway. It was suspenseful and I felt a twinge of anxiety wondering what would happen next!

If you could take any character from Rage out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I really like Jonathan's perspective and the way he analyzes things, so I would probably want to talk with him over dinner.

Any additional comments?

This book was very well written. I was able to picture what was happening in my mind more vividly than I normally can while reading or listening to other books. Can't wait to listen to the next one... which will be soon!!

Great Representation of a Great Book!

Where does Rage rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

Out of the four I've heard? FIRST!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rage?

You really grow to appreciate life when you wake up and something hasn't gnawed off half you're leg - Jonathan Parks

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

"I never expected to witness the end of the world. I certainly never thought I would be the cause of it." - Jonathan Parks
