Books by Michel Benoit
Religious scholar and novelist Michel Benoit was born in Madagascar in 1940. In 1962, having studied Biochemistry under Nobel Prize winner Jacques Monod and obtained a PhD in pharmacology, he entered the Benedictine order as an unordained monk, remaining there for twenty-two years. Because of his ideological non-conformity, he eventually quit the Catholic Church and decided to devote himself to research and writing. Already a worldwide bestseller, Prisoner of God follows the runaway national and international success of Benoit's thriller The Thirteenth Apostle.
