## Description

Detective James North is called upon to deal with a young, mentally unstable man holding a child hostage at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. When he arrives, he is disturbed to discover that - although the bad guy is a complete stranger - he's been asking for North by name. The hostage situation goes wrong, and North finds himself injected with a substance that causes hallucinatory nightmares and flashes of memory that are not his own. He begins to hunt through New York for his attacker, a man he feels inexplicably compelled to kill - a man called Gene. As he does so, North unlocks the secret of his past, a past that stretches back over 3000 years. GENE is the story of forgotten Greek warrior Cyclades who fought and died in the Trojan Wars, and was fated by the gods to be reincarnated seven times. Locked in a cycle of battle with the Babylonian Magi Athanatos, Cyclades must once again strive to defeat him and thwart his quest to achieve immortality. Cyclades and Athanatos. North and Gene. But in this incarnation, neither man knows which is which, or why each of them has the instinctive need to kill the other.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... for a long time and so she was very happy
*by P***9 on 20 January 2017*

A book my other half had been wanting to read for a long time and so she was very happy

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
*by J***H on 16 February 2015*

Good book.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Okay, but not as good as his first book.
*by A***Y on 31 January 2005*

Perhaps I was expecting too much. I really loved his previous work, Decipher, but Gene left me feeling something was lacking. Whereas Decipher was grounded (for the first part of the book) in science and actual history, too much of Gene is direct, straight-forward stuff with no room at all for interpretation on the reader's part. OK, Decipher goes off on a real tangent with Golems etc, but Gene starts that way and maintains the same throughout with little deviation from the outset. A decent story, and I'd say it was a good read. Just disappointed me a little, probably the anticipation I felt when I saw it had been released.
