2.0 out of 5 stars
If only I had studied harder in math,
By Greg Slade "Grga" (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Shiloh Project (Paperback)
Beaucage has a doctorate in mathematics, so it should come as no surprise that his protagonist is a mathematician. (If that's not enough of a warning, this book is the first in a projected series called "Mathematicians in Love.") The premise is that knowledge of a particular mathematical construct allows one to travel backwards and forwards in time. Thus, two mathematicians, sceptic Mel Schwartz and nominal Christian Ruth Foster (and their fellow travellers) meet Daniel, Herod, the wise men from the East, and, of course, the Holy Family. They also witness the destruction of Herod's temple. They also meet God, and leave the plot begging for a sequel, on which Beaucage is working.

SPELLBINDING, SOUL-ENRICHING!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Shiloh Project (Paperback)
This book should come with a WARNING label! I couldn't put it down!The authors ability to write a spellbinding and thought-provoking plotline with interesting characters whom you come to care about, is unparalleled.
As a woman who doesn't often pick up science fiction novels, I found The Shiloh Project enjoyable, fascinating and soul-enriching. Something I can't say about much of todays literature.
It is obvious to the reader that David Beaucage put a lot of research and thought into his book. As a man of science, mathematics and God, Mr. Beaucage has written a fun, Bible-based, time travel book, chock full of romance, computers and formulas that, if you're not careful, could change your life forever! He's written about faith without being preachy, love without being mushy, and math without being DULL.
Trust me, you'll love this book!

Faith and Science Together At Last!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Shiloh Project (Paperback)
Finally a man of science and learning has written a novel which creatively weaves faith and a plausibly extrapolated science (the best science fiction) into a story of romance and adventure. The level of vocabulary and the brief use of science and math challenge the reader without intimidating. I found myself totally convinced of the possibility of time travel. As with all romances, the ability of love to overcome obstacles is once again a major key to the plot. All hopeless romantics and adventure addicts will want to read this
