G.O.G. 666 is a science fiction novel by author John Taine (pseudonym of Eric Temple Bell). It was first published in 1954 by Fantasy Press in an edition of 1,815 copies.
The novel concerns Russian genetics experiments resulting in a being that is half ape, half brain.
Anthony Boucher received the novel unfavorably, describing it as "slow and muddled" and saying that "Neither story nor science can stand comparison with Taine's best work."[1] P. Schuyler Miller reported that "it's not the best Taine."[2]
