A good book. A little more advanced than a basic finances books, but helpful none the less. Esp. for someone who is partnered and trying to make sure things are covered and taken care of.

The book won the Horror Writer's of America "best novel" award for 1992. I'm not sure why. Perhaps the themes were new and exciting then, and the approach of the Millenium gave rise to theological fears which this book developed in an original manner. Today, this book reminds one of The Da Vinci Code in its use of nefarious Catholic organizations, wild chases by our innocent (or not so innocent) heroes due to supernatural or science-fiction inspired reasons, and the general ambience of mystic phrophecies beginning to come true. In a current novel-reading challenge "Blood of the Lamb" counted as my mystery/thriller selection -- though it's much more on the thriller side, and actually could be considered horror or science fiction. There are some grusome torture scenes, the felt-life of which I suppose makes this well-written, even if quite uncomfortable. And the "sci-fi" involving the Shroud of Turin is fairly well explained. But all in all, as a read, it was just "okay."

Another great edition to the prey series!! Loved it!!
