"An unusually alarming and thoughtful thriller... Clever and terrifying."--"Kirkus" "A superb read!

You'll be up all night with this book."--Jeffery Deaver, "New York Times "bestselling author of "The Sleeping Doll"

"Science versus religion--the ultimate crunch. Douglas Preston has written The Novel of the Year, an extraordinary, unique, fascinating, wildly imaginative mix of thriller, satire, Sci Fi, and every other genre in the book. "Blasphemy"--you're going to love it."--Stephen Coonts, "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Assassin"

"Terrifyingly realistic. An electrifying page turner. Preston at his very best."--Nancy Taylor Rosenberg, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Revenge of Innocents""With "Blasphemy," Douglas Preston has finally gone too far. One way or another, I'm afraid he may burn for this book."--Lincoln Child, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Deep Storm" ""Blasphemy" takes the latest theories of physics and pits them against the ancient religious beliefs that they now threaten, in an explosive, hell-bent and finally deeply moving book that I doubt I will ever forget. It literally made me pace as I contemplated the ideas that crackle through these pages, and it gave me pause as I realized that the physics here is so close toreality that the face of God that appears in this book may soon be, in real life, before us all."--Whitley Strieber, "New York Times" bestselling author of "2012: The War For Souls" "In "Blasphemy," Preston rips the toga off God, and what remains is simply the answer to the most profound question of human existence...why are we here? A stunningly great read."--W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear, "USA Today" bestselling authors of "People of the Nightland" and the novels of North America's Forgotten Past

""Blasphemy" is one hell of a good book. I couldn't stop reading, and at the end I had to force myself to slow down!"--David Hagberg, winner of three American Mystery Awards and "USA Today" bestselling author of "Dance With the Dragon"

"Preston has taken a fascinating concept and implemented it brilliantly. It's one of those books you think and talk about after you've finished it. I loved the characters. Even the sleazy ones were well-done. Science meets religion with a side order of politics. The mixture is explosive!"--Larry Bond, "New York Times "bestselling author of "Dangerous Ground""Can science discover God? "Blasphemy "is a stunningly ambitious novel that lives up to its goals. The theme is nothing less than the question: Is science the new religion?"--Barbara D'Amato, Edgar Award Winner and author of "Death of a Thousand Cuts"
