In Washington D.C., a homeless man dies in Commander Gray Pierce's arms, shot by an assassin's bullet. But the death leaves behind a greater mystery: a bloody coin found clutched in the dead man's hand, an ancient relic that traces back to the Greek Oracle of Delphi. As ruthless hunters search for the stolen artifact, Pierce discovers the coin is the key to unlocking a plot that threatens the very foundation of humanity. For an international think-tank of scientists has discovered a way to bioengineer autistic children who show savant talents into something far greater and far more frightening—all in hopes of creating a world prophet for the new millennium, one to be manipulated to create a new era of global peace . . . a peace on their own terms.

From ancient Greek temples to glittering mausoleums, from the slums of India to the radioactive ruins of Russia, two men must race against time to solve a mystery that dates back to the first famous oracle of history—the Greek Oracle of Delphi. But one question remains: will the past be enough to save the future?

Average Customer Rating:

'The Last Oracle' is my first stop on the Rollins rollercoaster!

Customer Rating:

This is my very first James Rollins book and I must say that I really, REALLY enjoyed it! Even though there was a lot of scientific "stuff" in it, I didn't get lost and didn't feel stupid! Rollins definitely has a way with words and driving things along at a MACH-3 pace. Although Gray is the main character I had a blast reading about Kowalski. This dude had me laughing out loud with is numbskull comments and brute strength. If you are a fan of political, scientific, somewhat religious, somewhat historical-fiction, military, secret covert operation, secret societies, DNA jargon, thrillers... then this is the PERFECT book for you! So now I have to go back and read his early work because I want to see how Sigma and Gray started and I also want to see how he writes other stuff. I envy those of you who get paid to read!! AAARRGGGGHHHHHH!!! Lucky !!

Favorite Author

Customer Rating:

James Rollins is by far the best author I have every read a book by. I became a fan of his after reading "Amazonia". I have read every book he has ever written, some of the older books twice. I love his Sigma Force books, but I have to be honest and say that I wish he would write another novel like "Amazonia", "Excavation", etc. Like I said, I love his Sigma Force books too, but it would be great if he would write another adventure book with strange creatures, crazy locations, and the deadly situations that made me a huge fan in the first place. I will continue to buy and read everything he writes, but one more crazy adventure with unexplained animals would be great. To fans of James Rollins first books like "Amazonia", etc.: you should read James A. David's "Footprints of Thunder" and "Thunder of Time"; and to die hard Sigma Force fans, you should try David Lynn Golemon's "Event" and "Legend".
