BLASPHEMY (Douglas Preston) - April 2/08

This follow-up to Tyrannosaur Canyon is completely ridiculous yet pretty entertaining. Preston tends to go over board in the theological stuff, which was a little too out there for me to comfortably follow. But the twist at the end - the head scientist guy wanted to create his own Scientology-esque religion - was admittedly pretty nifty, and it's hard not to admire any book that so willingly portrays devout Christians into moronic sheep who'll kill at the drop of a hat (well, after they're told via e-mail that the Armageddon is coming). *** out of ****
