Reviews
"Far more self-aware and entertaining than The Da Vinci Code." -Death Ray Magazine "Book of Secrets is a book of genres... a celebration of the age of pulp with a meta-fictional slant... the novel is structured like a Swiss watch and paced like a Tennessee walker... In the time of the post-Tolkienians and the novel as brick, Book of Secrets is unique, refreshing, breezy, and fun." -Red Rook Review "a rip-roaring read with a multi-layered plot and an original and surprising conclusion. I can see myself re-reading it for pleasure in future. What more can you ask of a book?" -SF Crowsnest, "Far more self-aware and entertaining than The Da Vinci Code." -Death Ray Magazine "Book of Secrets is a book of genres... a celebration of the age of pulp with a meta-fictional slant... the novel is structured like a Swiss watch and paced like a Tennessee walker...

What more can you ask of a book?" -SF Crowsnest Praise for Chris Roberson: "Chris Roberson is one of that bold band of young writers who are taking the stuff of genre fiction and turning it into a whole new literary form -- a form for the 21st century. A talented storyteller, he has a unique ear, a clever eye, an eloquence all too rare in modern fiction." -- Michael Moorcock "An exciting new writer." -Jonathan Strahan "Chris Roberson is another author to watch."- Charles de Lint, "Far more self-aware and entertaining than The Da Vinci Code." - Death Ray Magazine "Book of Secrets is a book of genres... a celebration of the age of pulp with a meta-fictional slant... the novel is structured like a Swiss watch and paced like a Tennessee walker...

Synopsis
IT'LL TAKE MORE THAN ANGELS AND DEMONS TO STOP HIM. Reporter Spencer Finch is a journalist embroiled in the hunt for a missing book, encountering along the way cat burglars and mobsters, hackers and mysterious monks. At the same time, he's trying to make sense of the legacy left him by his late grandfather, a chest of what appear to be pulp magazines from the golden age of fantasy fiction. Following his nose, Finch gradually uncovers a mystery involving a lost Greek play, secret societies, generations of masked vigilantes - and an entire hidden history of mankind. It's like The Da Vinci Code retold by the Coen brothers in this blockbuster blur.
