We begin a series of three programs tonight celebrating our role in the annual Decatur Arts Festival. The prize-winning Atlanta author Jeffrey Small joins us to talk about his exciting new novel, The Jericho Deception, a thriller that bestselling author Steve Berry calls ”captivating with plausibility and imagination.” It centers on a scientist’s invention of the Logos machine, a device that can produce religious ecstasy but also madness. When there’s a murder, two graduate students are thrust into a dangerous CIA plot with Logos that could launch a modern Holy War. It’s a nail-biter written with a cool intelligence and authority. Small won the Nautilus Award Gold Medal for Fiction for his first novel, The Breath of God. (jasbro)… (more)
