The Ahriman Gate

Joe Ryback, a twenty-six year old marine whose Lieutenant Colonel father was murdered under mysterious circumstances, stumbles upon a cover-up that reaches to the highest levels of US government and military agencies. Suddenly, too deep to turn back, he struggles to contain the nightmarish forces closing around him. As a mind-boggling phantasm brings him face to face with genetically modified creatures and spiritual-alien forces, a sinister plan unfolds at Montero—a government funded research laboratory—which could usher in the end of the world.

• EARLY GALLEY REVIEWS

"Most people hold Christian fiction up against the Left Behind series.  Although I was a fan of the Left Behind books, the Horns have surpassed Jenkins and LaHaye in writing a book that carries Christian themes with a storyline you don't have to be an avid church-goer to enjoy. The Ahriman Gate is a high energy thriller in the vein of Dean Koontz or John Saul... among the most riveting books I've read... [it] will leave you yearning for a sequel."
~1340 Entertainment Magazine, Jim McDonald

~National Book Review

"It's fascinating fiction and I sincerely hope it is just that -- fiction! Genetically modified creatures, spiritual alien forces, a clandestine government research project and a sinister kidnapping -- somehow, it all sounds too much like today's headlines....I have to commend the Horns for a gripping narrative that will send chills down your spine."
~Randall Murphree, AgapePress and AFA Journal

~Mark B. Lundeen, The Josh McDowell Ministry

"The Ahriman Gate races along with all the speed of a runaway train. It reads like an action packed 'Die Hard' movie. If Tom and Nita Horn are right in their calculations, then it begs the question, what the Hell is going on?"
