Children of the Gods - James Stevens - Bog

Father Marco Scallazi is a priest. But he is not just any priest. In fact, he is unique. Alien Ambassador to the Holy Roman See, for the last decade he has been convinced that President Kennedy's assassination was linked to a conspiracy involving the infamous Area 51. After years of running up blind alleys, he is eventually contacted by someone who informs Marco that, for a price, he is not only willing to furnish him with proof of his long held suspicion, but much more. During the clandestine meeting, however, the whistleblower is silenced and Marco is involved in a near-fatal accident that leaves him in a coma. He awakes several weeks later to be confronted by a dystopian world in which most of the human race has been wiped out by a mysterious disease. A chance encounter with a group of survivors led by former SAS assassin Jared Hunter and his daughter - the last remaining descendants of Christ - affords him the opportunity to outline his theory. Convinced by Marco's sincerity, Jared agrees to lend a hand. Determined to uncover the truth, the intrepid band set off on an epic voyage that takes them from the streets of London to Las Vegas, and finally Area 51, the most secretive and well-protected base on the planet. After a series of life-threatening encounters with a sinister cadre code-named Majestic 12, the subterranean labyrinth reluctantly reveals its secret. What they find shakes them to the core: some secrets are best left undiscovered!
