To most people, something as bland and unremarkable as this stone-like object wouldn’t even warrant a second glance. However, as those who take possession of it soon discover, this particular object is much more than a simple stone, having traveled over a billion years to reach them at a specific moment in time.

Unlike other inanimate objects, this one possesses the power to bend destiny to the benefit of whoever holds it. Without consideration or regard for either good or evil, it amplifies the desires of the holder and manipulates the energy surrounding them shaping fate to their advantage.

With each new recipient, the artifact expands its knowledge while passing the sum of its experiences on to them. Although its mission is quite specific, its very existence is the closely guarded secret of a society sworn to recover it—a task which proves to be far more challenging than they could ever have suspected.

From the moment it breached the atmosphere, Earth’s clock had been ticking with the survival of the entire planet hanging in the balance.

What an inspiring story! Can I get an artifact? Please? Well, maybe not, but that's okay. Would I still be true to myself? I believe so. What about you? Perhaps there's an artifact right here, waiting to be discovered. This author’s imagination soars to new heights. The narrator’s performance was truly stellar. Five stars, without a doubt!

What an interesting story. The main character, the driving force of this story is a rock? But no ordinary rock for sure. Travel through time with a determined rock, and the people who share its journey. Sean Cordry performs this story in an engaging way that kept me tuned in and wanting more.

The Artifact will make you think of the bigger picture of something other than yourself as a whole it will make you think of humanity and how it seems we never change as a whole. The artifact may seem like nothing but an unassuming little rock, but its true meaning goes much deeper in the history of this planet as well as the universe. I live the premise of the book and must admit that it gave me pause the think about the people and their true nature, and I must admit it is truly frightening. The deeper I got into the book, the more and more questions about life and people I started to ponder. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but in my opinion, this book is a MUST READ or LISTEN because it is interesting, unique, and thought-provoking. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.

overall a great story line that uses real historical events to creat the flow of time which is a nice twist.

only thing that should be revised is that itbwas just released, but the timline is already come and gone in the real world which leaves me thinking this took way longer to produce that it should have, or it needs revised to make it somewhat into the future real time.

that aside, overall a really good book

great story line that uses real historical events
