The Eye of God
By James Rollins
- Release Date: 2013-06-25
- Genre: Mysteries & Thrillers
Description
In The Eye of God, a Sigma Force novel, New York Times bestselling author James Rollins delivers an apocalyptic vision of a future predicted by the distant past.
In the wilds of Mongolia, a research satellite has crashed, triggering an explosive search for its valuable cargo: a code-black physics project connected to the study of dark energy—and a shocking image of the eastern seaboard of the United States in utter ruin.
At the Vatican, a package arrives containing two strange artifacts: a skull scrawled with ancient Aramaic and a tome bound in human skin. DNA evidence reveals that both came from the same body: the long dead Mongol king Genghis Khan.
Commander Gray Pierce and Sigma Force set out to discover a truth tied to the fall of the Roman Empire, to a mystery going back to the birth of Christianity, and to a weapon hidden for centuries that holds the fate of humanity.

5By CassieFay21I am a fan of anything James Rollins. I can be dead tired after a long day of work, mom, wife, etc...; but if I open a James Rollins novel I get a second wind. Before I know it I have two hours to sleep before my day starts all over again. That's how captivating his stories are.James rocks!
5By GB346Have read every one of his books and loved them all. I can't wait for the next one.Good story, bad storyteller
4By The ParrotheadLove the Sigma team. Really appreciate bring more of each character out every time. There is always depth and breadth in these stories that really grab your attention. I listen to these stories when I run, and appreciate the intrigue every time. But this narrator is terrible. I assumed they brought him on for his ability to speak the other languages in the story, but there has to be someone better. Timing is off, pauses are wrong, and too slow in his speech. Ugh. I have to rethink which stories I'll listen to vs read from now on.Lots thrown into the mix
4By HookedOnNovelsRollins packs a lot into this story— speculative science, some supernatural, history (real and invented); I just wish the characters were more richly developed.The best
5By NjellyThis is by far the best book that Rollins has ever written. Excellent!The eye of god
5By Wanda88888If u haven't read a James Rollins book yet, what r u waiting 4? His writing is always fast paced action, right up to the end, a page turner. He mixes in science & technology facts that blow your mind but u know it's really true. His books keep getting better & better, I just can't wait for someone to make one into a movie!My first
5By Tisham12While waiting in line I just happen to pick up this book and it intrigued me from the very beginning I brought it on my IPad read it over the weekend and Loved it, I am going to add the paper edition to my collection.Great Book
5By Stiner.777This book was amazing. The theories posed is this book makes you think about could have been. Also, it was to see some new characters with unique talents. Finally, it was sad to see two of the character that I grew to love in the previous book die in this one. You will grieve with the rest of sigma force fans after reading this book.The Eye of God
5By Dio2333Excellent read. Once you pick it up you don't want to let it go until that last page. Highly recommend it!Good, but a bit tedious at times
3By Windflyer3This book started out very exciting and gripping. But, as it wore on, the action seemed to be repetative and predictable. By the end, I was skipping over parts and glad to reach the end.Love my Sigma novels
5By Samm.1This was a great book, I wouldn't say my favorite Sigma, but great none the less. I do think it dealt with theories that some might find hard to wrap their minds around. I had to reread some pages and really let some thing's sink in. As always love the page where he wraps everything up! Please keep them coming Mr. Rollins !!!!Ridiculous storyline.
1By Further LookingUsually I can enjoy a far-fetched thriller, but this one is just too far out there with no plot along the way. Don't waste your money.A redemption
4By ynptrailrunnerThis book was a truly enjoyable redemption from the horrific collaboration of The Blood Gospel. Rollins needs to remain a solo writer. Long live Sigma Force.Riveting
4By JerrylachAnother page-turning thriller shrouded in searchable facts. What we have all come to expect and admire about Mr. Rollins.Great!
5By StephUSICan't wait to read his other books!What a relief...
5By vertskis...to read a Sigma Force gem after that ridiculous pile of coal dust call The Blood Gospel. The Eye of God moves the Sigma saga along in the familiar globe trotting, action packed formula we love!The eye of god
2By StanfarmerThis was poorly written. The plot was convoluted and confusing. It seemed to have been written in unfocused pieces. Too unrealistic and far-fetched. Would not easily pick up this author.
