Book Description:
A manuscript illuminated with fantastical creatures said to have roamed the Garden of Eden, the bestiary has been handed down throughout the centuries by one of the Arab world's most prominent families. Commissioned to restore it is the beautiful young art curator, Beth Cox. But it is Beth's husband, Carter-a paleontologist making his own dire discoveries in Los Angeles's famed La Brea Tar Pits-who will be led by the bestiary into a living, breathing menagerie of wonders-and horrors.

this starts out with the characters from vigil transplanted to LA. They both become caught up in an arabs biblical book that has many secrets within! The problem I had with this book was that I wanted to hear more about the story line started in the first book but he chose to not go into that much which disapointed me.

Nancy H. (I really enjoyed this book. I read his book Vigil first and did not even realize this was a continuation on that until I started reading. I think the story line was great and went along at a great pace. I am sure there will be another contuination from this one. Great Read!
Great story. Even though the main characters are from his other book "Vigil" you don't need to read it to enjoy this one. There area few references to another character from the book, but not enough to take away from this story. Imagine being the caretaker of a "zoo" of mythical beasts. Very good read.
Cindy B. (This was a very suspenseful novel. Good story, nicely writtne. I liked the pace, too.
Good book.....little slow in middle...but the last 3 chapters made up for it....
Brings to life the fantastic creatures of mythology?
Great plot and well written, starting with Carter Cox excavating La Brea Tar Pit and his wife Beth working for the Getty. A good book to take you on a pleasant vacation in your favorite arm chair. The best Robert Masello I've read yet.

An illuminated manuscript of a bestiary handed down throughout the centuries - leading to a living breathing menangerie.
Kevin B. (Not bad. A sequel to "Vigil" from a couple of years ago. Not as supernatural as that book.
