THE BOOK
The world will not be the same
After the most horrifying terrorist attack on the planet resulted in the destruction of millions of lives
and the contamination of millions of hectares of fertile land, new global guidelines are set for the survival
of humankind. With new security and control models in place, technology becomes the saving power.
As we shape our destiny like no other species, The Vatican Games proposes a post-apocalyptic world, based on current trends and poses questions of what is to be human in a technological age.
Eerily relevant at the moment, The Vatican Games predicts a not so outlandish forecast for our near future. But the novel is more than an eerie story with uncanny resemblance to the present global challenges. Whilst offering twists and turns that can take your breath away, the book brings up topics and ideas on power, politics, technology, war, the planet and human behaviour, building up to a thrilling finale.
Readers and reviewers have called it 'visionary, hypnotic, intense and deeply imaginative, a book full of ideas from a perceptive and inspired observer.'
