In The Tower, the thrilling conclusion to Simon Toyne's bestselling Sanctus trilogy, an ominous countdown has begun that some believe could be the first sign of an imminent global catastrophe.

Toyne's latest thriller opens at the NASA Control Center in Maryland where the center's director has gone missing and all that can be found is a bizarre message on his computer screen. FBI Agent J. J. Shepherd believes some of this might be related to an explosion at the Citadel, a secretive monastery in Ruin, Turkey; the viral outbreak that followed there; and the chilling disappearance of a woman named Liv Adamsen.

As strange events and natural disasters occur around the world, Liv searches for the final secrets of the prophecy, while inside the walls of the Ruin, her lover, Gabriel Mann, infected by the virus, battles to survive. Is this the end of days?

In the tradition of Dan Brown's The DaVinci Code and Steve Berry's The Columbus Affair, The Tower will keep you riveted until the very last twist.

Todas las criaturas de la Tierra, incluidos los seres humanos, sienten el irrefrenable deseo de volver a su hogar. Un misterioso mensaje se expande por todo el planeta: "La Humanidad debe dejar de buscar".
La profecía está a punto de cumplirse, pero, ¿qué le deparará a la Humanidad? ¿Será el final de los tiempos o un nuevo comienzo?

Liv is in the middle of the desert at an oasis created from nothing, a magnetic pull for travellers and a place of peace. Gabriel has returned to Ruin, suffering from the Blight and possibly the only hope of a cure. Meanwhile in the US something is wrong with the Hubble Space Telescope, two scientists are missing and fundamentalist Christians are chasing them.

Again the premise of the book seems barmy but the engaging nature of Toyne's writing means that one cannot stop reading. I devoured this book over a couple of evenings and have already passed it on to friends. A really fun and addictive read - sheer entertainment. ( )

This is the third book in the trilogy and I think I would have been happier not reading it. Maybe it is the way with trilogies.. book 1 very strong, catches your interest and you are chomping at the bit to read book 2 .. book 2 generally keeps moving the story ahead and holding your interest.

Now this particular book 3 just seemed to spin out of control, the story moved every which way but with no joining of the threads of the story from books one and two. No resolutions to any unanswered questions.

Sad but true I should have stopped with book 2. ( )

A very good end to the trilogy. ( )
