A professor questions science and faith as he searches for the truth—and a dinosaur—in this suspenseful, action-packed adventure.

After his sister’s death sends him into the loving arms of God, paleontology professor Travis Perego fights to reconcile the career he’s devoted his life to with his fragile new faith. His struggle between evolutionary theory and the Bible soon attracts the attention of the dean who makes at least one thing clear in Travis’s life. If he doesn’t figure things out soon, he’s fired.

Then a former student tells him of an experiment designed to prove evolution true. Could it be possible to retrace the path of evolution through bird DNA—to reverse engineer a dinosaur? If so, Travis could finally get answers to the questions plaguing his thoughts and threatening his career.

Desperate to know if the experiment succeeded, Travis searches the jungles of Costa Rica for the missing biology professor and the mysterious creature he created. On the hunt to find them, Travis meets Lenaia, a woman with her own reasons to search for the beast. Though both have secrets, Travis and Lenaia agree to work together before their chances of finding the animal—and the truth—evaporate into the thick jungle mist.

"Created has everything—suspense, romance, adventure….With an excellent set of credentials in her back pocket, Boekhoff has the writing chops to become the Michael Crichton of the CBA."—Katie Ganshert, award-winning author of No One Ever Asked

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Created has everything-suspense, romance, adventure, and an age-old theme that resonates with us all-what is truth? Janice Boekhoff deftly turns that question into a coin in story-form, with science on one side and faith on the other, and invites readers to turn that coin over in their hands. With an excellent set of credentials in her back pocket, Boekhoff has the writing chops to become the Michael Crichton of the CBA." -Katie Ganshert, award-winning author of The Gifting Series and Life After

About the Author

Janice Boekhoff is a former Research Geologist who pours her love of science and the outdoors into her suspense novels. Janice is a three-time finalist in the ACFW Genesis Contest. She writes from Southern Louisiana where she enjoys having only three seasons (cool, warm, and blazing hot). When she's not writing, she's hanging out with her amazing husband and three feisty kids or patrolling her backyard to keep her predator Vizsla (that's a dog, in case you weren't sure) from eating all the cute little geckos.

Created is a riveting action-adventure mystery that will keep readers in suspense until the last chapter. In fact, Janice Boekhoff EXCEEDED my expectations of her follow up novel in the Earth Hunters series!! I absolutely love Janice's style of writing and the way she moves the readers throughout the whole story; there was never a dull moment and the tale was peppered with interesting scientific data, but held fast to Biblical principals. I consider Created a must-read!

If you’re looking for an insightful, Jurassic World-esq, contemporary read that dabbles in creation vs. evolution then grab yourself a copy of Created and settle in for the wild ride. Just don’t get too close to the rheasaurus!

I was graciously provided a free copy of this novel from Janice Boekhoff. I was not required to write a positive review and the opinions I have expressed are my own.

I'm really impressed with Ms. Boekhoff's talent: the story is superb, the writing is outstanding, and I really love how she incorporates spiritual concepts throughout the story. There are some sad parts, and parts that brings a tear, but to me that's a great writer who can get their reader to be emotionally involved. Excellent job and highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book with something for everyone!

This book has it all - adventure, action, drama, and personal growth in characters. The author does a wonderful job with setting, making you feel like you're in the Costa Rican rainforest. Great character development - the characters work through real life struggles. This is a Christian book, but it is not 'preachy'. Creation science is explored as a main character tries to unite his faith with his scientific profession.

2.0 out of 5 stars A YA Christian novel
Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2017
Verified Purchase
I'd consider this book best described as a YA Christian novel; it's well written but very simplistic. I appreciate that it was clearly listed as a Christian novel. I don't care for religious books but the subject matter intrigued me and I thought maybe I'd just skip over the religious bits... but there are pages and pages of it. Not a bad thing for some but too much for me - I stopped reading midway. If you like a quick read and lots of religion mixed with your dinosaurs this book is for you.

A very intriguing subject and plot. Boekhoff will entertain you from page one as her characters explore deep questions in the need to find the Truth. They will encounter numerous obstacles that keep the action alive. The characters are loveable and the reader will want to follow their story. A highly recommended read.

This was an intriguing read. Boekhoff did a great job weaving a high-adventure plot with likable characters and suspense. But there was also the internal tension of a professor of paleontology who wrestles with his new-found Christian faith and the implications of believing in a Creator while working in the scientific academic world. The resolution is exciting and thought-provoking. Also will be a hit for dinosaur lovers!

I received this book at Christmas and loved it. I was drawn in from the beginning. It has suspense, romance, fantasy, and a message of faith wrapped into one book. I really enjoy the underlying thread of faith in Janice Boekhoff's books. If you are looking for a book that is hard to put down, with writing that flows seamlessly, this book is for you.
