Product Description

Product Description

Returning to Rome from a forced sabbatical, a Jesuit cardinal discovers that a dark force born of vengeance from an ancient religion has been unleashed against the world. Thrust into an end-game scenario, the cardinal joins with a dedicated team of Israeli and Spanish scientists as they race across the globe to stop a unspeakable evil ... only to discover that they may already be too late.

Once again, the meticulous background research that has become the hallmark of author John Lyman's novels is evident in this bone-chilling sequel to his bestselling book, God's Lions - The Secret Chapel, as readers are transported into the cloistered world of scholars, archaeologists, code-breakers, and intelligence specialists who have discovered evidence of an evil force that has ruled a single family for over seven hundred years. Put on a pot of coffee. This page-turning thriller will keep you up until the wee hours of the morning.


COMING THIS SUMMER: "GOD'S LIONS - THE DARK RUIN" the third book in the "God's Lions" series.

To echo previous reviews I bought the Gods Lions books as a pair and read them in a matter of days. Highy readable and very engaging characters. It is true House of Acerbi doesnt have such a heavy supernatural/religious element as the first book, but in some ways it makes for a better story as the plot does not jump around so quickly which allows you to buy into each of the teams endeavours as they unfold. This is great quality work in the genre at a ridiculously cheap price. Well done John, pleased to have a new author on my watch list.

An excellent sequel 21 Dec 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
John, in his second book, has again produced a book that captures the essence of good and evil and its impact on the world. The book took me three days to read and that was only because I had to work inbetween times and of course sleep. The historical detail is excellent as is the up to date information given. The story moves at a breakneck pace and is full of action as well as more sobering moments. Interesting ending which is a contoversial subject in the Catholic church and leaves the way open for book number three. Give this book a read, you will not be sorry although you really need to read book one to get an insight into some of the characters.

another 5 star smash 10 Jan 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I am so glad I downloaded this and the prequel. A mix of Indiana Jones/da Vinci code and James Bond, make for a very engaging story, though I do feel that this second book lacked some of the supernatural and Bible Code elements of the first book. Totally absorbing. These books would translate well into a movie. Totally hooked, I hope that the ending presages a third book in this series. More if you please Mr Lyman
