About this listen

Saint Joan of New York is a novel about a math prodigy who becomes obsessed with discovering the Theory of Everything.

Joan Cooper is a 17-year-old genius who was traumatized by the death of her older sister and who tries to rebuild her shattered world by studying string theory and the efforts to unify the laws of physics. But as she tackles the complex equations, she falls prey to disturbing visions of a divine being who wants to help her unveil the universe’s mathematical design. Joan must enter the battle between science and religion, fighting for her sanity and a new understanding of the cosmos.

Listening to the introduction I did not expect to enjoy this book greatly . However it was surprising and enjoyable and I would recommend it .

Surprising and enjoyable

I loved this book up until the last few chapters, which left me unsatisfied. I think the author doesn't like God very much and some of the plot regarding this didn't make sense - God's asleep at the wheel most of the time but still manages to run the universe?? The subject of string theory fascinates me and the intro on it was great.
The narrator Jesse was brilliant, I completely forgot it was her doing all the voices, she was that good - female and male characters. I'll check out her other stuff and that of the author.

Engrossing thriller mixes science and religion
