On The BackDavid Ponder is back. This time the fate of mankind is in his hands.
This is mankind’s last chance. Centuries of greed, pride, and hate have sent humanity hurtling toward disaster, and far from its original purpose. There is only one solution that can reset the compass and right the ship, and it consists of only two words.
With time running out, it is up to David Ponder and a cast of history’s best and brightest minds to uncover this solution before it is too late. The catch? They are allowed only five tries to discover the answer.
Readers first encountered David Ponder in The Traveler’s Gift. Now, in The Final Summit, Andrews combines a riveting narrative with astounding history in order to show us the one thing we must do when we don’t know what to do.
Many years have passed since David Ponder discovered the Seven Decisions during a divine journey through time. Now 74 years old, Ponder has lost the one thing that mattered to him most: his wife, Ellen. Despite his personal and professional success, he now sits alone at the top of his 55-story high-rise contemplating the unthinkable, just as he did 28 years ago.
However,just as things are looking their darkest, Ponder is informed through divine channels that he is needed now more than ever. Together, with the help of hundreds of his fellow Travelers, from Winston Churchill to George Washington Carver to Joan of Arc, he must work to discover the one solution that will save humanity. Time is running out, and the final summit of Travelers must work quickly to avoid dire consequences.
The Final Summit explores the historically proven principles that have guided our greatest leaders for centuries, and how we might restore these principles in our own lives…before it’s too late.
Oh my! Where to get started! When I first read the back of this book I did not know if I would be able to get into it or not. But, my fears quickly dissolved after the first few pages! It seemed that the more and more I read the deeper and deeper into the book I became.
In this book Andy has creatively took important people from the past and integrated them into the story line of the ‘travelers.’ I love that I was able to read about these important people and get a much better feel for what they accomplished in their lifetime. I was even able to read about important people that I might have never heard of before nor would I have known the important role that they played in the past and what they did that changed the world as we know it! For example a man named Eric Erickson! You yourself might not have heard of him but I promise you that if you read this book you will know what he accomplished in his life.
The Final Summit is not just about these important people from our past but also about David Ponder and the two word key that he needs to solve to save human kind. I love how the story plays out and you are able to really get a feel for each individual and what kind of person they might have been. But also on a bigger level. Like what would happen if you had all of these amazing people all in one room together. Or even better in heaven with archangels! How amazing!
I found this book to be very captivating! One of the best that I have ever read!
