What if Jesus could be cloned? And what would happen if a big asteroid were due to obliterate the Earth? These two questions form the basis of The Son of Man. The story follows the people who clone Christ's DNA from the Shroud of Turin, the woman (Maria) who is chosen to be the host of the implanted baby, her husband Todd and many others. As you would imagine, everyone is working towards a goal, though not all the goals are in harmony. The start of the book has a nice pace, but this drops off towards the middle as it becomes evident that this is only book one of a series. I'd have liked to see both questions achieve some resolution instead of just one - which, I'll leave you to find out. It's a decent enough read, though not great.
