title: Dance of Death (Large Print)
author:  Douglas Preston 
description: The thrillers of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child "stand head and shoulders above their rivals" (<em>Publishers Weekly</em>). Preston and Child's <em>Relic</em> and <em>The Cabinet of Curiosities</em> were chosen by readers in a National Public Radio poll as being among the one hundred greatest thrillers ever written, and <em>Relic</em> was made into a number-one box office hit movie. They are coauthors of the famed Pendergast series and their recent novels include<em> Fever Dream</em>, <em>Cold Vengeance</em>, <em>Two Graves</em>, and <em>Gideon's Corpse</em>. In addition to his novels, Preston writes about archaeology for the New Yorker and Smithsonian magazines. Lincoln Child is a former book editor who has published five novels of his own, including the huge bestseller <em>Deep Storm</em>. <br />Readers can sign up for The Pendergast File, a monthly "strangely entertaining note" from the authors, at their website, www.PrestonChild.com. The authors welcome visitors to their alarmingly active Facebook page, where they post regularly.
