Every fan of Metaxas should read A Fish Out of Water to get to know him better. He alludes to a possibly sequel full of “miraculous” events and I would really like to read it.

This book is fascinating and the topic is very Crichton-worthy. I don’t quite think it would have completely ended up with the storyline it did if Cricton had finished it instead of someone else.
