Forty years after a mysterious billionaire disappears, he suddenly resurfaces with a dark secret that shocks the world.

In this enthralling third novel in the God's Lions series, Cardinal Leopold Amodeo is once again teamed with a group of scientists and archaeologists as they are led to the inescapable conclusion that a very real evil has arrived in the world.

Based on recently declassified documents and real-life technological breakthroughs, John Lyman takes listeners on a wild ride into a future that is already here, where technology takes flight in the hands of one who has vowed to destroy mankind.

Another great story! Well read and engaging. This is the third book in the series and they keep getting better. Although the author is writing from a perspective of catholic faith, I love the openness to other religions. I am not a catholic but I have loved all three books so far. On to the next one for me!

Fantastic

This book is the perfect blend of history, religion and suspense. It kept me fully engaged and made me want to start the next book immediately.

I have enjoyed all of the books in this series, it is a topic with many paths as the author noted. However, there are a few quirks that are annoying. The narrator is good, but he has a high saliva drive in his regular voice and even more pronounced in the different voices. I have never heard so many people in need of a spit. Then there are several basic inaccurate items names - it is the Resolute Desk, not Resolution. The desk was made from the HMS Resolute. It is the National Security Agency and not the National Security Administration. I imagine there are more I missed since it appears the author did limited research.

Interesting, but basic plot.

Read the other two and now this one, the narrator did a good job. Going for #4.

A lot of action, breath holding suspense and thought provoking question of good versus evil. The God's Lions series is a must read for anyone who believes good will always win over evil. Kudos to John Lyman for a great story.

A Fictional Story.....Or Maybe Not??

For a group of people who know beyond the shadow of a doubt that they are in God's army, fighting a holy battle in his name, they seem to lack faith...

Where is the faith?

These books and the narration are some of the best I have read or listened to. They need to be made into movies.
