Review Disclaimer
The
Apes of Eden – The Journey Begins by Jon P. Gunn is a fascinating read. I got
caught up in the book and had a hard time putting it down.
Jon P
Gunn wrote the book in “rhymed iambi pentameter thus falling into the category
called heroic couplets. Each line has 10 syllables and the pairs of lines
rhyme.” This follows the style of Geoffrey Chaucer and many of the plays and
sonnets of William Shakespeare. For me this made for a great read.
The
author developed a story around spiritual restlessness using apes as his main
characters as they travel through human history looking for God. He did a great
job of taking a very deep, philosophical subject and creating a fictional look
at it. The story was easy to follow and very well written. I really like the
way Jon P. Gunn developed his characters and made them real and easy to
identify with.
I
really enjoyed reading The Apes of Eden – The Journey Begins by Jon P. Gunn and
I recommend it to all readers.
