Description: 'A thriller of a story.' The Times 'The satire is so entertaining, the pace so sharp, the writing so witty . . . it's effortless to consume.' Observer When Theo Griepenkerl happens upon the fifth Gospel in a war-torn Iraqi museum, he can't believe his luck. Driven by greed and a lust for fame, he capitalises on his find by publishing it. His book is a sensation. But he can hardly imagine the incendiary consequences his discovery will have for Christians, Arabs, homicidal maniacs and Amazon customers alike. The Fire Gospel is a brilliant piece of storytelling, dazzlingly outrageous and utterly gripping.'Faber's latest bristles with tightly edited ideas . . . This is a lean, controlled, instantly engrossing book.' ***** Financial Times
