Synopsis

The Last Pope, by John Oster, follows Pope John XXIV as he takes an historic, first-ever tour of humanity's off-world presence in the inner solar system. Along the way he contends with Vatican politics, breathtaking advancements of nanotechnology, a marauding intelligence armed with devastating power, and stumbles upon the greatest revolution in human history that could also be its own greatest disaster. Faced with his own human frailty, the Pope finds himself, and humanity, led to the brink of annihilation and salvation. Oster's The Last Pope builds on the startling advances of modern science, particularly nanotechnology, and then layers in the timeless struggle of religion vs. reason to create an action packed and thought provoking epic journey. Written with impeccable expertise and told in the best tradition of the science fiction genre, The Last Pope is both a cautionary tale of humanity's future, as well as an entertaining epic adventure sure to please any sci-fi fan.
