THE NEWTON PROPHECIES IS A MUST READ! Mar 25, 2009
By Amy Flannery
This high-suspense thriller is action packed, keeps you guessing, crammed with twist and turns that you can't see coming; it has you questioning who's good and who's evil, keeps you so enthralled that you just don't want to put it down till the last page is read. It leaves you with a WOW when everything is said and done. You can't imagine you just read the whole book in just a few hours. There is no way your going to want to put this book down! The ending explains everything and leaves it open for a sequel.
I cannot wait to see what this author comes up with next. If you love action packed mysteries, real page-turner thrills, then I highly recommend The Newton Prophecies. It is reminiscent of Dan Brown & Robert Ludlum.

Not to be missed debut! Jan 07, 2009
By A. Pohren
Behold - the not to be missed novel of the year! The Newton Prophecies is riveting, gripping and intense - a one way ticket to adventure and intrigue with no layovers or stops. With so many twists and turns, one easily loses sight of which way is up - so engrossing is this novel.
In The Newton Prophecies, Michael DiBianco, a Professor at Harvard Divinity, and a world renown writer of religious research and "truth" finding, finds himself in a race to save not only himself, but the world. A devastatingly dark group know as the DoL, is out to thwart the Second Coming and place their Master in his rightful place, within the world. This darkness reaches every crack and crevasse of society - into the uppermost region of world leaders.
Michael has no idea who he can trust and who he cannot. He soon finds out that his entire life - from birth - has been preprogrammed and not at all what he thought. Friends that he thought he could trust and rely on, suddenly appear to be enemies. With the clock ticking, Micheal must see the truth within the smothering fog before it is too late.
Just when you think you have the story figured out, a whole new pitch gets thrown in - changing with each page turned. The ending is perfect and leaves much room for a possible follow-up and/or sequel. I highly recommend 2060 The Newton Prophecies to anyone looking for a suspenseful and action packed story. You will race through each page right along with Micheal as he tries to save the world.
Keith Katsikas is a great talent and displays such in his debut masterpiece. With tinges of Dan Brown, Harlan Coben and Brian Freeman, Mr. Katsikas is sure to make his mark as a memorable author and find his way into the hearts of many. I cannot wait to read what this author has in store for us next!
Awesome Beyond Words! Apr 05, 2009
By Trevor Keith
"Book Editor & Reviewer"
I really love Dan Brown and it is because a friend told me that this book was even better than most of Dan Brown's work that I just had to check it out. And man am I glad I did! Without question this is one of the best thrillers I've read in my life. While this is clearly a self published novel that could have used some professional editing the story, the plot, and the characters were awesome! I really loved this book! The chapters are VERY short and each one ends in such a way that it propels you into the next. You simply cannot stop reading this book. I finished it in two days! Just spectacular. I can easily see this made into a blockbuster movie, much like The Di Vinci Code or Angles & Demons. Great work by the author. Cannot wait for his next! ~ Trevor Keith

The Newton Prophecies...I couldn't put it down! Nov 11, 2009
By Faith M. Leighton-Waites
I love all of Dan Brown's stuff so I'm always looking for that type of thriller. Boy did I find one in The Newton Prophecies! This book is a must read for all thrill-seekers, and I devoured it in literally 2 days. There were times that my heart was actually racing as I read and was exhausted when I put it down for the night. Keith has the wonderful ability to put you right into the story...and THAT'S the kind of book I like to read. I love to just lose myself in a story, and I was able to immerse myself in The Newton Prophecies to be sure. Another sign of a good book to me is one that keeps you guessing and stays on your mind for days...this book accomplishes that...a definite page-turner.
Personally, I think Keith Katsikas has given Dan Brown a run for his money. This book DEFINITELY has MOVIE written all over it. Can't wait for Keith's next book to come out!!!

DEBUT!!! WOO EE! Mar 16, 2009
By Paula Shene
"library dweller"
This book took off running and did not let up to the last word was penned!... I do not believe in spoiling a read so all I will say is...
Surprise after surprise and a hook in every ending...this is one book you do not want to miss. Michael DiBianco is the hero but seemingly also the lynch pin in spawning the apocalypse.
Across three countries, characters good, bad, good/bad, bad, good...wait until the end which is just the beginning of this series..
The next in the series is due out in 2010...write faster, Keith!....Paula Shene, author of Mandy The Alpha Dog: The Chronicles of the K-9 Boys and Girls on Locus Street
