The Day the World Retreated by Jim Armstrong has essentially left me speechless- which is pretty much impossible!The magnetic draw of his descriptive talents that radiate off each page, the smooth and captivating way he has with words and the creative imagination from which this masterfully written book has emerged is simply amazing.A story full of energy, suspense, questionability, romance, time travel, all centered around the question of life choices, the question of God versus sciences, and second chances in life.What would you do if???Carl Winters and Dr. Cameron Decker happen to be two main characters Armstrong created with depth, realism and surreal humanness. Both far from perfect and when inevitably their paths cross Armstrong takes his book to a whole new level.After finishing, the question that popped into my head was what I might do if I had a second chance at life? Would I want that? Sounds dangerous to me.Bottom line is this book will keep you on the edge of your seat. You will fall in love with the characters and no doubt ironically you may discover newfound hope in the weirdest places.Do yourself a favor. Read the book and let the author know your thoughts. It really is that good!
