Reviews
* From 'Publishers Weekly' This globe-crossing action thriller, like its predecessor, evokes the spirit of Dan Brown with welcome doses of Lee Childs ex-military tough-guy grit.
* From Vince Flynn A non-stop locomotive of a thriller. Combines labyrinthine plot twists, global terrorism, and the darkest depths of psychological warfare in a thriller that had me burning the midnight oil 'til breakfast... Kuzneski is a master in the making.
* From James Rollins 'Sword of God' is as convincing as it is terrifying. Riveting and relentlessly paced, here is novel that will be consumed in one sitting. Chris Kuzneski proves again that he is thriller writer for the new millennium.
* From Douglas Preston Reading 'Sword of God' is like jumping on a runaway freight train hurtling toward disaster, with the fate of the world in the balance... A fabulous premise, great characters, rich settings, and mach-5 pacing. Explosive!
