Praise and Reviews

"The humor ranges from laugh out loud to dark." Phil Angelo, The Daily Journal

“I would highly recommend reading The God Gene by Jaymie Simmon. Fully developed characters. Interesting plot line. Very relevant to our time and its spiritual and moral ambiguity. Simmon sprinkles her plot with comments on our zeitgeist.” -- Jack Hatfield, Chairman of the Board, Chicago Area Great Books Council
