This is my first audio by this author.  It is a little different story for me but I enjoyed listening to it from beginning to end.  I enjoyed how the narrator brought life to the story by using different tones.  The story has some suspense in it as well.  You could tell when something was going to happen by the narrator’s tone.  I enjoyed the characters and the growth of the plot.  Lucifer finds himself back in the Garden of Eden only to find his Cain with some troubles.  What happens you will need to listen to this audio to find out.  I did enjoy listening to this book and glad that I picked it up.  I highly recommend this audiobook.
