"Mouse is both strong and vulnerable, constantly struggling with
the dark legacy of her father, her own powers, and her efforts to
be a good person. This exciting, poignant novel continues the
strong opening in Bohemian Gospel and leaves room for
more in Mouse’s fascinating world."
*Publishers Weekly*
"Carpenter’s follow-up to her debut novel, Bohemian Gospel, is
as richly woven as her first. A terrific follow-up."
*Booklist*
"Darkly entertaining. "
*Kirkus Reviews*
"Carpenter’s follow-up to Bohemian Gospel is similarly
crammed with theological mystery and suspense. The journey through
lesser-known landscapes and areas of religious history is
absorbing."
*Historical Novels Review*
"A strong protagonist in a swift-moving novel that zips to Rome and
Prague with several unexpected detours along the way."
*Criminal Element*
"Fans of historical fiction with a supernatural bent will thrill to
the surprises Carpenter reveals within the ancient parchment pages
of The Devil’s Bible."
*Chapter 16*
"Part fantasy, part historical fiction, part mystery and part Dan
Brown thriller. Absolutely unputdownable! I can hardly wait for the
next installment in Mouse’s life."
*Eleanor Kuhns, award-winning author of 'A Simple Murder'*
"Look out, Dan Brown. Dana Chamblee Carpenter is the
angels'''''''''''''''' new champion in the timeless battle between
darkness and light. The Devil''''''''''''''''s Bible is
not just a book, but a shining, vibrant tale for the ages—told with
history and heart—that will have readers both weeping and cheering
not only for brave Mouse, but for all of humanity."
*Laura Benedict, author of 'Bliss House' and 'The Abandoned
Heart'*
"An arresting thriller with historical and literary prowess,
defying expectations in every chapter. A remarkable tale of a
heroine who transcends her name—Mouse is undeniably mighty. She
refuses to accept her own boundaries, ignoring rules of both
society and science. Superb."
*Erica Wright, author of 'The Red Chameleon'*
"The Da Vinci Code meets Twilight—only darker, edgier and
more literary. There’s an underlying tension with every turn of the
page. I really enjoyed it!"
