Trying to read some books from the earlier days of netgalley- but I'm afraid that this book isn't really my genre and unable to finish

The Vatican objects to Father Byrne's findings about Tim Trinity and his prophesying so Father Byrne resigns the Devil's Advocate office and the priesthood in order to find out the truth. And so off we go to la la land where the bad guys are all powerful and the good guys are nearly all powerful and we are all trying to take over the earth. Daniel dumps his girlfriend from Book 1 and takes up with another and the world is going to end with a plague released by the bad guys so we will all turn into prophets.

Is all this necessary? Why couldn't we just have some interesting stories about Father Byrne from the DA's office?

The book is overwrought and Mr. Chercover should have talked to a few more infectious disease specialists about prophylactic dosages and antibiotic failure.

I'd give this a miss if I were you.

I received a review copy of "The Devil's Game: The Daniel Byrne Trilogy, Book 2" by Sean Chercover (Thomas & Mercer) through NetGalley.com.
