The Prophecy

Payne & Jones, Book 5

By: Chris Kuzneski

Narrated by: Dick Hill

Michel de Nostredame, the French apothecary commonly known as Nostradamus, has gained a cult-like following, a loyal band of enthusiasts who credit him with predicting numerous world events - the Great Fire of London, the rise of Napoleon and Hitler, and the nuclear destruction of Hiroshima. However, his most important collection of prophetic verses has remained hidden...until now.

In the year 2009, a letter was mailed to a woman who does not understand why she has received the puzzling correspondence, written in a series of codes and ancient languages. She enlists the help of Jonathon Payne and David Jones.

Relentlessly hunted by those determined to protect the secret, the duo has no choice but to fight back. In an adventure that spans two continents and several centuries, Payne and Jones must locate the sacred text that may change everything we know about the future.

Kuzneski: fabulous, as usual

With "The Prophecy" -- Kuzneski's fifth Payne/Jones novel -- the author continues his winning streak of highly entertaining, intelligent stories. Even though Kuzneski gives us far-fetched plots, we willing suspend disbelief just for the fun and entertainment he provides. We can't help but love the relationship between best friends and co-protagonists Payne and Jones, with their witty dialogue, and the perfect way in which they work together on their missions. These guys are TOUGH -- seemingly indestructible (although Payne does suffer a minor bullet wound this time around) -- and they always thwart the bad guys, yielding a very satisfying read every time. The narrator, Dick Hill, has a slight tendency to over-act, but otherwise does a good job of voicing all the characters. I recommend "The Prophecy" to any thriller-lover, to anyone in need of good escape-fiction, and to any Nostradamus aficionado.

Another great book in this series.

Kuzneski writes another great book. I would recommend this series to any adult (language would prohibit me from recommending to young adults). Wonderful story teller and easy to follow. Only complant with this one is that it seams to end rather abruptly. Maybe more time developing conclusion than in beginning especially description of Ashley who later doesn't have anything to do with rest of story. My two cents. Dick Hill one of the best readers ever. Thanks for the entertainment!

The best yet!

I have enjoyed all the books so far, but this one was particularly intriguing and thought provoking.

One of my favorite books of the year

Kuzneski writes a great book - the play or banter between best friends Payne and Jones is awesome. very similar to John Corey in Demille's books. Its a fun book to listen to, well worth it! Dick Hill does a great job reading the book or I should say preforming the book with different voices for each character.
