Though this book is considered fiction, one can see reality on most of the pages. If we look at our world with awareness, we will see it in the pages of The Ezekiel Code. A must read!

This is a big book, but I did not want to put it down. I was intrigued to see how it turned out. Its faced paced and will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Ezekiel (Zeke) Banyon was named by his mother after having a dream the night before she gave birth to him, that she should name him Ezekiel. Zeke was going to be a priest, but instead, he runs a homeless shelter named Seattle Gospel Mission.
Zeke decides that he needs help and then hires Angela Martin. Zeke is quite impressed with her abilities around the office and she helps him to get "up to date" inside his office.
Zeke finds an old calendar with strange numbers created in a series written by the last manager of the shelter. Zeke and Angela start investigating and realize that the numbers match a code - The Ezekiel Code. As further investigating continues, they realize that the numbers relate to biblical passages.
Their are others that do not want the truth to be told, and Zeke seems to be the only one who can save the world from what lies ahead to be disastrous.

After taking over as director of a homeless shelter, seminarian dropout Ezekiel "Zeke" Banyon stumbles upon a mysterious document listing a strange series of phrases and numbers in his predecessor's office. He and Angela Martin, a recently hired employee of the shelter, become fascinated with the odd phrases and codes. They set out on a journey which leads them to believe that the English Alphabet may in fact be a cipher of some kind; that built into the very fabric of the language itself are coded messages that have been there for centuries. But where did this code come from? What message does it contain? What are the implications to humanity?
Zeke and Angela soon find they are not the only ones interested in discovering the secret of the code. Other more nefarious and conspiratorial organizations' power and future are in Zeke's hands. Some want to protect him while others want him destroyed.
Gary Tenuta's Ezekiel Code has elements of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code as well as the adventure of Preston and Child's The Ice Limit. Mostly, however, this novel is like an entire season of the X-files packed into one book. Tenuta covers a lot of ground and topics including: acoustic levitation, out of body experiences, area 51, ancient Catholic Church and Jesuit secrets, Mayan calendars and predictions, Isis and the great pyramids, Gematria, parallel universes, the Illuminati, conspiratorial organizations, parallel universes, electronic voice phenomenon, and more. This requires a fairly high suspension of disbelief factor by the reader and Tenuta does a good job integrating these diverse concepts into the story.
While English Gematria, which is the assignment of numerical equivalents of words usually associated with Hebrew, is the main concept driving the Ezekiel code, the pace of the novel can occasionally be interrupted by its frequent appearance. Regardless, I found myself engaged throughout the story and googling a number of the curious and fascinating concepts raised in order to learn more about them. Gary has clearly done considerable research in writing this novel. Fans of the X-files will enjoy The Ezekiel Code.

The Ezekiel Code is one of those rare books, that once you read it, you will never see the world in quite the same way - a mark of excellence in storytelling. It changes you because it opens a portal to so many fascinating concepts, some of which are right before your eyes, laced throughout our lives and history, and others, which exist just beyond our general understanding, that it will keep you thinking and wondering about what it presents long after you've read it.
As a story, The Ezekiel Code quickly became a `place' I wanted to escape to every day. I grew attached to its main characters, Zeke and Angela, and accustomed to being a part of their world, and I didn't want it to end. The characters are alive, fully formed people that seem very real, in richly detailed surroundings. They start out in the most ordinary of circumstances, but are drawn, through many twists and turns, through synchronicity, into a captivating mystery that begins to surround them and take over their lives. Their path is a dangerous and winding one where dark and light continuously battle for supremacy. Slowly, subtly, the main characters, and you, the reader, are taken down the rabbit hole, and you will wonder over & over again, could many of the things the author presents, be real, be true? There is a great deal of evidence to say that yes, much of it could be, and that only enhances an already engaging and compelling story. Indeed, this book is so loaded with mysteries & intriguing theories that a reader could then proceed to spend the subsequent twenty years studying them with immense interest & zeal. Note: The Ezekiel Code could very well be the beginning of many an addiction to uncovering hidden truths, deep mysteries, secret societies, metaphysics, ancient knowledge, quantum physics, (and many other sciences and theoretical concepts that I will not mention for fear of giving too much away) - you have been warned!
I was struck by the breadth of knowledge and passion the author obviously has for his subject matter. In fact, this is one of those instances where I am as fascinated by the author, who embodies his work, as I am the story. Loads of research went into crafting this book. There are many novels that will *razzle-dazzle* you with technology, weapons, and smart, sophisticated "super-people" that none of us could ever relate to. These can be formulaic and forgettable. They may be good reads at the time, but they don't stay with you, simply blending into a sea of similar stories. The Ezekiel Code transcends this, because it is at once relatable, yet so dense in what it offers, that you will find yourself bringing things up that you learned from this book in conversation with your friends & family, and engaging in absorbing and lengthy discussions for a long time to come.
The Ezekiel Code is high-concept fiction, with great action & adventure, and is a completely unique story with a powerhouse ending. An unforgettable read!

I love synchronicites and that's what Gary has plenty of in this amazing book. From the very first page, you are drawn in and wonder why such a plain ordinary everyday guy comes to be the "Chosen One". I love how it unfolds and how everthing and everyone comes into play. Gary has written every emotion possible for the two main characters. It is like a rollar coaster ride. The best part about this book is that it has all of my interests (from the Mayan Calendar theory,the Secret Socitey Groups,the Merkaba,numerology, meditation and more)all rolled into one book. Near the end of my journey of this book there were so many interesting synchronicities that happend to me that there are too many to list. The best one I'll mention is on my road trip from Ohio I was coming out of a Tim Horton's and right beside my car door on the ground, were exactly NINE pennies...you have to read the book to understand. Yep....there are no coincidences....I do rank this book very close to the De Vinci Code if not BETTER...Way to go Gary, I look forward to the subsequent one in 2010...
