No greater threat to civilization exists than the apocalyptic menace of nuclear terrorism. In his chilling novel about nuclear terrorism, Sheldon Filger presents the fragility of twenty-first century civilization since 9/11 and the USA invasion of Iraq, and its frightening vulnerability to terrorist groups linked to Al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden, waging jihad in the name of Islam. With unlimited funding made available through Swiss banks, harboring no restraint on the use of a nuclear weapon, and determined to inflict maximum carnage on the people of the United States, the jihadist followers of Osama bin Laden plan a genocidal conspiracy with the ultimate weapon, a nuclear bomb of unparalleled destructive power.

KING OF BOMBS is a riveting thriller confronting a dark possibility: Al-Qaeda and its network of Islamic terrorist organizations joining forces with the rogue nations of North Korea and Iran and the murky underworld that characterizes the nuclear weapons black market, in a conspiracy involving nuclear terrorism in its most lethal form. Al-Qaeda's plan: to build the most powerful nuclear weapon ever designed, with the explosive yield of ten thousand Hiroshima atomic bombs, and smuggle it into the United States.
