In this superb thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author James Rollins, Sigma Force must battle a group of rogue scientists who have unleashed a diabolical project that could bring about the extinction of mankind.

Salvation . . . or annihilation?

What if scientists could bio-engineer the next great world prophet—the next Buddha, Mohammed, or even Jesus? Would it mark the Second Coming or initiate a chain reaction leading to the end of mankind?

Formed during the Cold War, a think tank of world scientists known as the JASONS have discovered a way to manipulate and enhance autistic children who show savant talents—mathematical geniuses, statistical masterminds, brilliant conceptual artists. Yet among their young patients a strange side-effect begins to arise. Before it can be analyzed fully, a rogue group of the JASONS begins their own secret experimentation with a cadre of the best children. Their goal, to create a world prophet for the new millennium, one who can be manipulated to create a new era of global peace . . . a peace on their own terms, that is. But such manipulation has grim consequences as a biological meltdown among the children begins to occur—turning the innocent into something far more frightening.

To stop the JASONS before they engineer the extinction of mankind, Commander Gray Pierce of SIGMA Force races against time to solve a mystery that dates back to the first famous oracle of history—the Greek Oracle of Delphi. But can the past save the future?

    I was taken aback by my reaction to the first ending of this story, then shocked at the true ending. Rollins always surprises and entertains. Pretty much exhausting at times but always worth the read. On to the next!!!

    I loved the Indiana Jones meets Professor Langdon characters in this book. I thought it kept my interest threw out it. I only gave it four starts though because, I felt it had a somewhat disappointing ending.... He left it open (yes, I know it's a series of books). Thought it would of had a better ending then it did I would recommend this book to anyone....

    James Rollins has a habit of boring us to death with too much setup and too much technical detail. I have read all the Sigma series up to this episode. While some of the stories have been stronger than others, this one by far was the worst. This story is comprised of so much filler by way of technical jargon, side stories that go nowhere, and far too little action that you actually have to try to remember what the story line is as you proceed through the novel. I would recommend skipping this one.

    This book, and three other Rollins downloads, was missing whole chapters of text. Impossible to read.

    If you've read more than one books from this author, you already know the pace of the story. It is very hard to drop the book as the suspense will keep turning pages after pages. I personally really enjoy this one.
