Reviews - What do customers think about Ark Fever (Legend Chaser)?
 | Interesting, but not worth 225 pages. Aug 6, 2006 |
Bottom line, the subject matter is very interesting, and Bob Cornuke's role in the quest for the Ark is worth reading about, but this book should have been 25 pages, not 225.
Unless you're truly interested in an adventure story about every detail of every expedition, you'll agree. It's like he, when writing the book, struggled to come up with things to say to make the book long enough. I would not recommend the book; I'd recommend that someone who's interested visit the Web site for 20 minutes and call it good. | | |  | Some will mock, some will not care and other's will rejoice.

| Ark Fever by Robert Cornuke is a very good and exciting read. Cornuke a retired detective, went on to become a real life Indiana Jones. Who went all over the world searching for Biblical relics, such as the Ark of the Covenant, the Ship Wreak of Paul, Noah's Ark and many others. This book Ark fever is about His search for Noah's Ark, as well as the why people search. It involves dangerous Mountain Climbing in Dangerous CONDITIONS IN dangerous COUNTREYS (IRAN AND TURKEY). This is a guy's book (action packed) for sure, and I think, anyone would like it. tales of near falls and falls, terrorists to avoid, Hostel Government's and secret Police. The book is very well written, being a former detective Cornuke is very detail oriented, the book will grip you and not let you go, I think I have Ark fever now. Should I give away the end, does cornuke find the Ark? Let's just say; some will mock, some will not care and other will rejoice. | | | | Must Read May 2, 2006 |
| I usually don't read a book through in one night but did this book. Cornuke does a great job writing of his adventures to find Noah's Ark. His fortitude and commitment were commendable and rewarding. I hope there is a follow up to what he has discovered. Cornuke also gives an inspired insight into salvation. This is a must read. | | |  | Very interesting! Mar 10, 2006 |
| This has been facinating to listen too. I constantly feel like I want to get out there and become an Biblical adventurer. I would have liked to hear more about the Spiritual and inspirational aspects of the journey. These are mentioned here and there but for a long time Christian, my soul longs for more. Great adventure though! | | |  | More religious than expected. Mar 8, 2006 |
Ark Fever is my definition of a three star book. It was a quick and easy read, but I am glad I checked it out from the library and didn't buy it. The book is a first person account of Robert Cornuke's trips around the globe (actually just Turkey and Iran) in search of Noah's Ark. I was disappointed in a lot of aspects of this book, expecting more discussion about how he came to choose his sites and what he has done to analyze his findings. Unfortunately, the book tends to be a somewhat arrogant account of how he illegally tramped through different foreign countries, putting himself, his companions, and his unsuspecting tour guides at risk from the elements and the authorities. But don't worry, Mr. Cornuke's stories all have happy endings, as he describes how he single-handedly saves entire expeditions of more experienced climbers and mountaineers. This scenario repeats itself over and over throughout the book and gets pretty tiresome. Regardless of what you think about the governments of the countries he visits, it is irresponsible and selfish to do what he does after learning that his actions may very well get his government guide's family killed; yet that is exactly what this "Christian" relic hunter does.
Apart from the repetative expeditions, the book does not contain much more information about the ark. Mr. Cornuke only briefly describes his thought process to pick locations, twice he goes on a trip to what he considers the wrong mountain. As far as what he finds, there are a few pictures of rocks in the back of the book that he seems to claim are really pieces of a petrified ark.
If you are looking for an easy weekend book about some trips to hunt for Noah's Ark, with a large helping of the religious significance to Christians of finding the ark, this might be the book for you. If you are looking for a logical and scientific search to determine if such an item exists and where it may be, skip this book. I would classify this book as a religious adventure book, with a lot of time spent discussing spirituality. It was not an unbiased account of the facts behind the ark. | | | Write your own review about Ark Fever (Legend Chaser)
