Publisher's Summary

As war rages in 1944, young army lieutenant Lucas Athan recovers a sarcophagus excavated from an Egyptian tomb. Shipped to Princeton University for study, the box contains mysteries that only Lucas, aided by brilliant archaeologist Simone Rashid, can unlock.

These mysteries may, in fact, defy - or fulfill - the dire prophecies of Albert Einstein himself.

Struggling to decipher the sarcophagus's strange contents, Lucas and Simone unwittingly release forces for both good and unmitigated evil. The fate of the world hangs not only on Professor Einstein's secret research but also on Lucas's ability to defeat an unholy adversary more powerful than anything he ever imagined.

From the mind of bestselling author and award-winning journalist Robert Masello comes a thrilling adventure where modern science and primordial supernatural powers collide.

Breezy pulp that doesn’t go anywhere

It’s a fun, breezy read and well written. The performance of the narrator is solid and the setup is gripping. Where it ends up going and why eludes to the title and it’s much less exciting. There is also one major plot hole that shouldn’t have been allowed to go to print. The characters are what you’d expect from a pulp adventure, a bit flat but fun enough. I’d probably recommend it for someone looking for a quick adventure read with some interesting history thrown in- but anyone expecting more it’s not worth the trouble.

great

Probably my favourite of his books so far. Sympathetic, likable leads helped, as well as the fact that the historical figures weren't total turd-heels (here's looking at you, HG Wells! Man, that one was such a disappointment. But I digress).
WW11, a mysterious chest found in the Egyptian desert, bet you're thinking Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, right? Nope, no Ark of the Covenant here! Masello digs deep and presents to us the earthly remains of Saint Anthony of Egypt (and something much more sinister). Why are the nazis so interested? And why are people starting to die in very strange ways?
I loved it. The characters were charming, the story was well-plotted, well-paced and compelling, and the ending was (a little bit "and the moral of the story " but also) extremely satisfying and emotionally resonant. No, really!
My favourite parts involved Kurt Godel and his wife Agnes Porkert, who were absolutely the MVPs, and sent me off to Google them right away.
