I feel that anyone wanting a well researched, historically accurate novel based in religious ideals needs this book. But before you read Roadmap To The End of Days, I implore you to read Friedmann’s previous novels. Both The Genesis One Code and The Broken Gift build up to the core ideas of Roadmap To The End of Days, giving the reader ample context for more complex ideas. And if his third book is any indication, both his previous novels will be just as enjoyable
