The Evolution of Thomas Hall by Kieth Merrill
4.0
Thomas Hall is a fantasy artist with abilities unlike any other--and an ego unlike any other. He has it all, it seems--cars, a boat, a beautiful art studio, women. However, with the help of his trusted agent Frank Berger, Thomas gets wrapped into an unwanted job painting a mural of Jesus and his miracles. With unforeseen circumstances altering his well-balanced life, Thomas now has much more on the line. He gets caught in a situation including a disabled but faithful little girl, another job that tests his own faith, an estranged father, a SAVE THE SEALS extremist, and a special woman named Susan Cassidy. This is his journey with miracles. Ultimately, he must decide for himself what to believe, how to act, and if he is willing to forgive.
I enjoyed this book and rate it ⅘ stars because of its thought-provoking writing and realistic plot. It included many conflicts that made the book very interesting and captivating. It starts out confusing due to how the perspectives switch sometimes. Farther into the novel, however, every aspect comes together and complements other parts of the plot. Many of the characters experienced character development throughout the story. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes realistic fiction, especially to those who are religious. This book deals with God and different spiritual aspects that are enlightening while still being thoroughly enjoyable.
