Publisher's summary

In The Eye of God, a Sigma Force novel, New York Times best-selling author James Rollins delivers an apocalyptic vision of a future predicted by the distant past.

In the wilds of Mongolia, a research satellite has crashed, triggering an explosive search for its valuable cargo: a code-black physics project connected to the study of dark energy...and a shocking image of the eastern seaboard of the United States in utter ruin.

At the Vatican, a package arrives containing two strange artifacts: a skull scrawled with ancient Aramaic and a tome bound in human skin. DNA evidence reveals that both came from the same body: the long-dead Mongol king Genghis Khan.

Commander Gray Pierce and Sigma Force set out to discover a truth tied to the fall of the Roman Empire, to a mystery going back to the birth of Christianity, and to a weapon hidden for centuries that holds the fate of humanity.

Good story, narration was less than stellar

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed the story, as I have with all of James Rollins' Sigma Force novels. However, the narration was awful. All the accents sounded Asian, including the Italians. I think I would have enjoyed this story much more if I would have read it myself.

Terrible reader

Good story, but the narrator was so terrible, it was distracting. His accents were often unnecessary and all over the place. Bring back Peter J. Fernandez!!

BASKOUS IS SHIT. Rollins is wonderful.

The Sigma Force series is more fascinating every time a new story comes out! This Narrator Christian Basckous is the worst. Baskous changes accent without warning. He distracts from the story. He should not be allowed to do this. I cannot understand how this happened. where is the quality control Audible?

Accents

First Italian characters I’ve ever heard with Chinese accents. Really ruins that that of the book.

Wish Peter Jay Fernandez was the narrator again...

Enjoyed the book but the narration was monotone and annoying. Couldn't tell the voices apart at all and based on reviews of the next books, I've stopped getting the audio versions and started reading them myself.

Narrator

The main reason for rating this book so low has everything to do with the new narrator. The character are almost unrecognizable and dull. This story lacks the vibrancy from the previous narration.
