Description: The Antikythera mechanism was just a fraction of the machine. The rest of it is waking up.
When a perfectly preserved, ticking bronze cube is pulled from a Mediterranean shipwreck, historian Dr. Harrison Blake knows history is about to be rewritten. But this Bronze Age artifact isn't just an ancient computer-it's a resonant key. And it is counting down.
The cube is tied to a massive, subterranean tectonic engine built by the Minoans to vent the pressure of the Santorini volcano. For three millennia, it has slept. Now, Julianna McCravey, the ruthless CEO of a global tech empire, wants to use it. Armed with a military-grade predictive AI that calculates Harrison's every move before he makes it, McCravey plans to manually trigger a catastrophic earthquake, crash the global economy, and emerge as the savior of the ruins.
From a subterranean gunfight in the blackout-plagued London Underground to a high-altitude vehicle drop over the Ionian Sea, Harrison and his team-antiquities expert Dr. Serafina Bellini and tech genius Wyatt Lee-are outgunned and out of time. Forced into an uneasy alliance with a deadly Russian mercenary, they must decipher a trail of ancient musical ciphers that leads straight to the Oracle of Delphi and into the boiling, magma-filled depths of the Santorini caldera.
They have ninety-six hours to jam the gears of a doomsday machine. But how do you stop an algorithm that already knows exactly how you will try to defeat it?
Packed with explosive deep-sea action, relentless pacing, and mind-bending historical conspiracies, The Clockwork God is a globe-trotting thrill ride perfect for fans of James Rollins, Clive Cussler, and Steve Berry.
