Title: Operation: Jade Helmet
Author: Ashley Fontainne
Genre: Christian Fiction\/Suspense\/Futuristic
My rating:<\/strong> 3 of 5 stars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not gonna lie; this book’s not my cup of tea. I read the blurb going in, and I thought it would be some great techno-thriller. At thirty percent, I was still waiting for the blurb story to kick in. I feel a little like I was ripped off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Operation: Jade Helmet is a big story told in small snippets of times in different locations. It’s meant to encompass a global event, the end of times. We were warned, through all sorts of worldwide chaos, Global warming, and talks of one government to rule us all. Good and evil are amassing their armies, and the fight is here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Clearing begins, my children.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I did feel like there was a great deal of proselytizing and pandering done in Operation: Jade Helmet. It feeds off of many of today’s most controversial and sometimes debased conspiracies. It stokes many fires regarding social media being evil, scientific advancements playing god, and that left to themselves people are easily lead astray and indoctrinated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, it’s a ‘no,’ but I know that there is an audience out there for this book. Operation: Jade Helmet will be something that moves the right reader. I just can’t forgive its superiority complex. I give it three stars because it’s not necessarily that the story is a bad one; it’s simply not a good one for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
