I have now read a couple of this author's books with the same main character, Chase Kolpath. I have enjoyed both very much, with one exception. Chase Kolpath is a woman and in both books during the character's internal dialog, I found myself thinking "A woman wouldn't think like that!". The character "self-talk" was just too masculine. However, since I seem to be the exception and mostly men seem to read sci-fi, I guess it isn't getting noticed too much.

Interesting mix of archaeology and science fiction. While McDevitt's characters tend to be two-dimensional, the complicated and ingenious plot more than make up for it.

Really excellent speculative fiction from McDevitt. The plot unravels like a whodunnit with each new revelation topping the last. I read this book compulsively and lost sleep over it. Highly recommended.
