Diabolus by Travis Hill

"Salvatore Antonelli, a disgraced ex-bishop, and Benito Castillo, a young tech-priest fresh out of Seminary, are tasked by the Vatican to confront DAMON-1, a nuclear capable AI that claims to be Satan incarnate, returned to the physical world to bring about Armageddon.

The two clergy must battle to restore DAMON and purge Satan from the enslaved AI's core."

That is how the book is introduced on smashwords.

Diabolus is  a great read!  I gave it 5 out of 5 stars.  A score that is very hard to earn.  I judge by how enjoyable the story is, depth of character, pacing of the plot and errors that I find.  This was a fairly complicated trick, the mixture of Science and Religion. There are many who think these subjects are mutually exclusive, but I think Mr. Hill accomplished this in admirable fashion.  
Salvatore has a great deal of inner pain and doubt he must overcome, he felt betrayed by his Church.  Benito, much younger, deals with the tech aspects and follows in the steps of his Lord.

Diabolus, one of my favorite books for 2015, will provide several hours of enjoyment for the Scifi lover, as well the person interested in Spiritual and Christian concepts.
