A tremendous amount of research must have gone into this book, and into the hands of an author who knew what to do with it.&lt;/strong&gt; J.G. Sandom has written previous thrillers, but this was my first introduction. It won't be my last.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"The story is historical fiction written with a factual base. &lt;strong&gt;Exhilarating, penetrating, even while switching between centuries as far back as A.D.33, does not lose its focus.&lt;/strong&gt; But there are many red herrings: who does one trust? Is anyone who or what they seem? is even the quest what it seems? These are but a few of the questions that must be solved.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"&lt;em&gt;The God Machine&lt;/em&gt; is purported to be a direct line to God. Does it work? This work of fiction will have the reader asking many questions along the way. Such luminaries as Benjamin Franklin, Leonardo da Vinci, and Thomas Edison are among the many seekers and inventors in this story. The search is claimed to be to follow clues to the hiding place of The Book of Judas, but the action mushrooms as the search changes direction. &lt;strong&gt;I recommend this book to readers of action, historical fiction, historical religion, and fans of thrillers&lt;/strong&gt;."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
