This book, the first title in the series "The Real Lives of Adam and Eve", covers the time from their births up until the time of their banishment from the Garden of Eden. It is divided into two chapters, the first covering all the events from birth until entry into the Garden at the age of 20, and the second covering all the events that happened during the 7 years they lived in the Garden - including, of course, their temptation and fall from grace. In this book, the people, places, and times are real. But the story is considered by literary critics to be fiction. But is it really? Maybe this is the way it actually played out. After all, it is diligently based on existing historical records - writings from ancient scribes and scholars who meticulously tried to document the truth of events that happened before writing was even invented. This book presents a plausible scenario - a history of events - told here mostly from the perspective of Eve herself - as reminisced to her son Seth. How she believed it all played out, why it happened the way it did, and what it means for their future life together. Immerse yourself in the thoughts and feelings of Eve, considered by many to be the progenitor of us all. Putting away the effect of hindsight, you'll be able to ask yourself, "Would I have acted like Eve did, if I had been in the same situation? Or would I have done otherwise? Just what would I have done?" This is a powerful blend of history, philosophy, theology, romance, spirituality, and personal drama - all mixed together into an informative, but easy-reading, inspirational tale of courage and fortitude. A total fantasy based on an overactive imagination? Or a literary history enacted as a rollicking adventure story? Take your pick.
