Evolution is advocated and taught at all Catholic schools and universities as a biological and real force, leaving the creation of the soul to God. While fundamentalist Christians seem to have a problem balancing faith and science, especially when it comes to the debate concerning Evolution and Creationism (or Intelligent Design), the Vatican has never seen a problem balancing these two extremes. I was raised Roman Catholic and attended Catholic school until my high school years. If you like all-stops-out, high-concept adventure, this one's for you. Why Hollywood hasn't snapped his books up yet is a mystery, but it's doubtful any big-screen version could capture the author's gung-ho enthusiasm and intellectual curiosity.
Rollins keeps getting better with every novel, and his fast-paced thrillers are feasts for the imagination. The author interweaves these stories, following the Sigma Force team members as they risk their lives to get to the heart of one of humankind's greatest mysteries: the origins of life itself. In South Africa, a mythological beast is apparently alive and well and preying on wildlife. In Denmark, someone is buying up rare historical documents connected to Victorian scientists (for instance, Charles Darwin's family Bible), and the purchaser is desperate enough to kill for his prizes. In Nepal, a strange plague has struck a remote Himalayan monastery, and a Nazi swastika is found on a cave wall. The globetrotting adventurers of Sigma Force, that elite American special-ops team, return in this high-powered thriller.
