In The Pleistocene Redemption cloning techniques and Fossil Gene Redemption methodology, pioneered in the closing years of the 20th Century, have enabled geneticist Kevin G. Harrigan to regenerate astounding prehistoric animals - including human sub-species. By engaging in genetic manipulation is Harrigan fulfilling a terrifying prophesy? What awesome and mysterious forces await to control or countermand use of Harrigan's breakthrough discoveries?

Provocative and controversial, The Pleistocene Redemption is also a harrowing, thrilling adventure. Its scientific and military basis is impeccably sound, and its underlying warning will shock and haunt you.

Beneath the surface, The Pleistocene Redemption challenges the mathematical-deterministic theme of Jurassic Park while following in its footsteps and those of similar hard-hitting adventures. A science-fiction thriller based on recent scientific discoveries, it poses powerful ethical questions which everyone, not just scientists and theologians, must face.

Subtly refuting every spiritual implication and "insight" of The Celestine Prophecy, The Pleistocene Redemption will not only frustrate rationalists who claim that the spiritual has no place with science, it will discomfort those of any faith who assert that science has no truths to offer religion.

Work Description

Cloning sheep, cattle, and chimps is only the beginning.

Using Fossil Gene Redemption (FGR), geneticist Kevin G. Harrigan experiments with genes from a frozen “Ice Man.” His work prompts Iraqi leader Ismail Mon to provide resources for exciting new research that enables Harrigan’s team to regenerate extinct animals and human sub-species from the Ice Ages. But when it is discovered that FGR is also the basis for genetic weapons of mass destruction, United States intelligence and defense leaders must act.

The Pleistocene Redemption, radically different from Jurassic Park, deals with two new methods of species regeneration. Will FGR trigger the Resurrection of the Dead? The major religions’ prophecies portend the regeneration of humankind as both physical and spiritual. What physical mechanisms could manifest this new dawn? Might they instead herald the terrifying sunset of humanity?

“... Thoroughly compelling. ...The climax, containing one of the finest action sequences in recent fiction, approaches apocalyptic dimensions… . While Michael Crichton’s Jurassic stories were interesting, Gallagher ups the ante dramatically and intellectually.”
-- Richard J. Woods, OP, author of Mysticism and Prophecy and fiction works.

“… Hard to put down… hauntingly close to real possibilities… terrifying. I truly enjoyed the action, excitement, politics, human drama, all mixed with enough science to make me think that perhaps this could really happen.” -- Scott R. Woodward, Ph.D., geneticist, Brigham Young University
