Praise for The Mayan Prophecy
‘From the opening page to the stunning climax, Steve Alten has done it again. The Mayan Prophecy is a chilling, deeply researched peek into our ancient past. Jarring, frightening, thrilling … What more could a reader ask?’
James Rollins, bestselling author of The Doomsday Key
‘Alten draws clever parallels with Mayan myths in this rip-roaring space-age yarn equipped with a credible love story and Earthbound side plots’
Publishers Weekly
‘With the storytelling sensibilities of Crichton and Cussler, Alten sure knows how to write a thriller’
Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times
bestselling author of Dune: House Atreides
‘The Mayan Prophecy is an eye-bugging, white knuckle flight of a book that hurtles along with the velocity of an asteroid from the ancient world to the twenty-first century on an unforgettable doomsday mission’
Rocky Mountain News
‘Steve Alten has penned a rousing story. The research is phenomenal and artfully inserted into the plot. The way he eases factual info into fictional is beautiful’
Barbara Riefe, New York Times
bestselling author of The Ravaged Heart
‘Every now and then a book comes along that totally knocks your socks off. Steve Alten’s The Mayan Prophecy is such a book’
Gauntlet
‘An exciting, well-written science fiction-fantasy that works because the key characters seem genuine and the magical elements appear real’
