"Patrick Hemstreet's debut, THE GOD WAVE, is a bombshell of a
thriller full of everything I love: complicated characters, dynamic
plotting, all set against a backdrop of a fantastic scientific premise.
Here is a novel that demands to be read in one sitting, while leaving a
lasting impact afterward. And with more of this world to come, I can't
wait to read what happens next." --James Rollins, #1 New York
Times bestseller of The Bone Labyrinth
"The God Wave is a mind-twisting 'what if?' story with some
crazy cool science and true-to-life characters you can't help but root
for. It feels like those vivid dreams where everything is normal except
you can do this one thing other people can't. A fun and disturbingly
believable foray into the paranormal. Don't mess with the Zetas!"
--Sylvain Neuvel, author of Sleeping Giants
A team of neuroscientists uncover amazing new capabilities in the brain
that may steer human evolution toward miraculous and deadly frontiers in
this spectacular debut work of speculative science fiction--Limitless
meets James Rollins--that combines spirituality and science in an
inventive, mind-blowing fashion.
For decades, scientists have speculated about the untapped potential of
the human brain. Now, neuroscientist Chuck Brenton has made an
astonishing breakthrough. He has discovered the key--the crucial
combination of practice and conditioning--to access the incredible power
dormant in ninety percent of our brains. Applying his methods to test
subjects, he has stimulated abilities that elevate brain function to
seemingly "godlike" levels.
These extraordinary abilities can transform the world, replacing fear
and suffering with tranquility and stability. But in an age of
increasing militarization, corporate exploitation, and explosive
technological discovery, a group of influential power brokers are
determined to control Brenton's new superbeings for their own
manipulative ends--and their motives may be far from peaceful.
