I enjoyed the trip back in time to the days of the Biblical patriarchs. The author drew some interesting characters and scenarios making use of the Biblical accounts of the Nephilim giants and some of the ancient creatures like the Behemoth. One could feel the intensity of unbelief and unrestrained immorality that must have existed, and how hard it must have been for Noah and his family to endure the mockery and scoffing, especially since it took 120 years from the time of commission to when the ark was finally put to use during the flood. I would like to have seen a little more character development with Noah's family, and felt that on occasion there was so much other story to tell that we didn't get to fully know these key characters. Otherwise, good read.
