In Eden and the Ten Commandments: Thoughts on God Through Fiction, Wendell Grainger, PhD, delivers two enthralling tales that challenge our understanding of morality and existence.The first plunges readers into a gripping expedition to Eden, where a tantalizing opportunity presents itself: the chance to retrieve fruit from the Tree of Life. But God did not let man have the fruit after the fall. The choice between unbridled power and faith in God fractures the expedition into opposing forces - one advocating for the fruit's retrieval and the other vehemently against. Tensions escalate to war within Eden.The second story transports us to an unknown wasteland. Nameless characters, each embodying distinct traits, must navigate this desolate space, ultimately discovering an enigmatic, but vibrant city. Their journeys are only beginning though, for soon they find themselves in positions of power. Unaware of their predestined roles, their actions are intricately tied to the Ten Commandments. Life in the city becomes a nightmare and the "Dreamer" has to enter. To save the city, understanding and determination will be needed. More so, the Dreamer will need to find something with power to have any chance of success.Dr. Grainger doesn't just tell stories; he beckons readers to reflect on the nature of evil, the weight of their actions, and the foundations of morality. Stripped of names, the characters serve as mirrors, allowing readers to bypass preconceived notions and truly think about the tales unfolding before them.
