According to the review, this book seems fascinating, making the reader question the reality of life that we all know catches my attention. It revolves around a mission to kill God and incorporates aspects such as aliens, occult societies, secret codes, and human biology/psychology. Also, it is suitable for any religion despite the title. Undoubtedly, it is an original and interesting work.

This sounds like an interesting and intriguing book. I like the fact that the lesson is learnt and understood at the final sentence. I'm also interested to find out what happens in the middle and what makes the second part of this complex book wierd.

Save the Last Bullet for God by JT Alblood seems like an interesting book especially to the lovers of this genre. Unfortunately, it's not my cup of tea. I will skip it but will recommend the book. Congratulations on the BOTD. Great review!!
Books are beautiful.

An interesting title that’s not very revealing, really minimalist and conceptual cover art, and a genuinely interesting and unique writing style.
Not to mention having good backing of a well-written review.
I commend both the reviewer and the author.

Sounds like a very creative piece of work, but it's not my type of book. I'm sure many readers will appreciate the time travel feature.

Thanks for the honest review. This sounds like an intriguing story that has a complex storyline. Knowing that Hitler was into the occult makes this an interesting concept. With the science fiction and time travel pieces, take the information in a whole new direction.

I am curious about this book. I also wonder if it's a bunch of conspiracy theories pieced together. I don't think I will be reading this. Nice review!

Insightful review I must say, but the part that mentions mission Kill God is a put off for me. I think I'll simply pass on this one.

Even though the review mentions that the book is not an attack on Christianity, the title puts me off and I won't be reading this book.

From the sample and your review, this sounds like a very complex story. One with aliens and such, which is not something that I would be interested in and would have a hard time following.

I read the sample and it is has a very complicated plot. Lot's of jumps through time which broke the flow of reading and made it difficult to follow the rhythm of the author.
This book is focused on extra terrestrial beings, covert operations, alien invasions and mind control blended perfectly with the life of other characters as they come alive in this story.

Time travel has always been an intriguing concept for me and one I am always looking forward to read. The plot of this novel is as intriguing! The review mentioned about this book requiring an above average intelligence to fully comprehend it. This puts so much pressure for me to make it a point to really digest the novel🙂
