Games by Ted Kosmatka

Dr. Silas Williams is the brilliant geneticist in charge of preparing the U.S. entry into the Olympic Gladiator competition, an internationally sanctioned bloodsport with only one rule: no human DNA is permitted in the design of the entrants. But when his creation demonstrates monstrous strength, speed, and - most disquietingly - intelligence, Silas' scientific curiosity gives way to sheer terror.
"An outstanding debut novel" (Booklist) "Exacting science and meticulous attention to detail provide the backbone for this thriller, which blends the best of Crichton and Koontz" (Publishers Weekly)"
