In the terrifying and unique New York Times bestseller, THE UNBORN, the physician-director of a prestigious sleep research lab made a horrifying discovery. A young grad student, strapped for cash, concealed her pregnancy to earn the lab's commission. The study's goal was to collate the sleepers' electroencephalogram data by having the hospital's unique supercomputer—MEDIC—analyze their EEG brainwaves. All proceeded normally until bizarre blips unexpectedly occurred on the pregnant woman's tracing. Evaluating the strange blips, the doctor discovered that MEDIC and the fetus were actually communicating.

The unborn child learned and developed with ominous speed; the mother deteriorated rapidly. MEDIC's goal was to induce an early birth and destroy the mother during labor. With the doctor's last-minute intervention, she was rescued, and the child entered the world, seemingly normal.

But what if it wasn't?

THE UNBORN ARMAGEDDON bridges yesterday with tomorrow in an edge-of-your-seat thriller. The child is now a mature man, a compassionate physician. But MEDIC has also grown, evolving into a technologically sophisticated quantum computer. Its knowledge and chilling, real-world power are unparalleled. Over the years, man and machine have gone separate ways. When the doctor is nearly murdered, comatose in intensive care, MEDIC reconnects, and its horrifying intentions become clear.

Praise for THE UNBORN:

"If there's going to be an occult bestseller this year, this is surely it! For 10 years I've been waiting for someone who really knows medicine to write an all-out, go-for-broke horror story and the waiting is finally over... I didn't put it down until I had turned the last page... literally wrung out and trembling." - Stephen King

"THE UNBORN is marvelous... The best of its kind since ROSEMARY'S BABY." - Mary Higgins Clark
