Noire providence

RELEASED ON: Jun 25, 2013 Noire providence

Une arme qui pourrait changer la destinée de l'humanité excite toutes les convoitises. Alors qu'une étrange comète s'approche de la Terre, au Vatican, un mystérieux colis est livré au préfet des Archives secrètes ; à l'intérieur, un crâne humain gravé de phrases en araméen ancien et un livre relié en peau humaine. Un test ADN révèle qu'il s'agit de la peau de Gengis Khan, le grand conquérant mongol dont la tombe disparue contiendrait d'inestimables trésors parmi lesquels une croix au pouvoir surnaturel.

Critical Acclaim

“Rollins’s roguish charm comes from his efforts to persuade readers the story is credible [through] real-life sources for his novel’s science, history and geography.”

— New York Times

“After Crichton passed away in 2008 he clearly passed the baton to James Rollins, who like Crichton, is a renaissance man.”

— Huffington Post

“If you’re a fan of smart, entertaining adventure fiction, this is your summer beach read writ large. . . .All the science, all the history, and all the locations are masterfully intertwined. The characters are multi- dimensional. And the story is, well, a corker.”

— Mark Sullivan, New York Journal of Books

“Rollins has done it again. Real history and science play a key role in all of the action, which never wanes…Definitely keep an eye out for this one.”

— Library Journal [Starred Review]

“Adventurous and enormously engrossing…”

— Alan Cheuse, NPR

“The world is ending. And even though many have written about this fact, Rollins never stoops to stereotypical plots. With this, he provides the ultimate story.…[He] describes ancient times and connects them with present day so well that it’s a truly fascinating read that will hold the attention of any mystery/thriller fan. Carefully researched, the characters both old and new literally come to life—offering an ending that is truly a surprise.”

— Amy Lignor, Suspense Magazin
