About this listen

If you could go back in time...and witness any event...where would you go?

When Dr. Tom Greenbaum faces that question after successfully discovering the secret to time travel, he knows the time, place, and event he will witness: the death and failed resurrection of Jesus Christ. Dr. David Goodman, Tom's colleague and closest friend follows Tom into the past, attempting to avert a time-space catastrophe, but forces beyond their control toss them into a dangerous end game where they are tempted by evil characters, betrayed by friends, pursued by an assassin from the future, and haunted by a demon that cannot be killed.

Critic reviews

"What surprised me, with [Robinson's] take on the possibility of two 21st century men meeting Jesus, was the utter lack of predictability.... He offers a new perspective on ripping apart the time-space continuum I am shocked no one has ever considered before now." ( Round Table Reviews)
"[A] thrilling and fast-paced 'what if?' scenario." ( MidWest Book Review)
"[A] rollicking adventure.... The story opens explosively and is laced with suspense and humor. Robinson writes quite well and is an up-and-coming author to watch...we'll hear, read, and see a great deal more from him in the future." ( Christian Book Previews)

Brilliant and so thoughtfully written. I loved it. The concept of the book is truly wonderful, the back story with its time machine and money grabbing, ladder climbing executive's, a good reminder of what we are aware of in our own communities and work places.
Interesting questions and doubts wind through the main story, some leaving you to work it out through your own circumstances, some given simple, yet obvious answers.
The characters are believable and fun, making it a real pleasure to follow the walk of Jesus and his disciples to the cross and resurrection.
Love and wit, death, evil and confrontation is all here with an extra chocolate flake in your Joes icecream.
The accuracy of the wonderful bible story is like no other, this is a book that you can listen to without feeling as if your being lectured to in Sunday school.
I highly recommend you listen / read this book.

Of course I can't end this without giving R.C Bray a mention, in this be has excelled his abilities in carrying each of the players, their accents, bruffness, gentleness and passion terrifically and wonderfully portrayed. Well done mr Bray.

As usual Jeremy has produced a brilliant piece of literature which makes this old atheist want to believe. Keep writing mate and keep making me question everything.

I could be a believer

Taking subjects that have been written about many times before but giving them a fresh & interesting twist that will keep you listening. The characters were well developed so you start to care what happens to them.

The narrator has a very clear and 'easy on the ear' voice and does well to give each character a separate tone which obviously makes the story a lot easier to follow.

Already looking forward to listening to book 2 in the J. Robinson Origins series. 👍

Thoroughly enjoyed the story and its narration.

I listen to books at work , I finished this at home 🤩, the story was gripping , characters well thought out and engaging , I just couldn’t stop listening .

Though I don’t see myself as a religious man , faith I don’t feel has been a gift I have yet to receive , this book questions with out forcing it on you and I really enjoyed it

Highly recommend

Have a little faith !

For me, Jeremy Robinson books are a bit hit and miss. ‘The Didymus Contingency’ is not one of the better ones. The plot is on the more unbelievable side of ludicrous, which in itself isn’t a problem; I’m always up for a bit of escapist nonsense. Unfortunately, it just isn’t very well written and does take itself rather too seriously. Some of the characterisation and dialog is just plain cringe-worthy. I have struggled to get to the midway point, but am afraid I am going to have to give up on this one. Even Mr Bray is not on top form here. I would personally suggest having a listen to ‘Mind Bullet’ first, which is also ludicrous, but an absolute belter of a ride.

Not one of the better ones...
