It was entertining but after a few chapters you knew how it would end.

Preston doesn't disappoint, even when writing without his normal pen partner, Lincoln Child. The book mixes the right ratio of science, intrigue and action to make it a real page turner. Short chapters will keep you saying, "I'll just read one more"!

A fun, fast read!
This is the kind of book that takes you deep into the night and will not let you go.
Douglas Preston usually writes with Lincoln Child but proves he can write on his own! Thriller with a special science twist.
This is a good book, but not great. I was expecting a little more excitement and suspense but it just didn't deliver. I've never read a book by Preston before so I can't say if it is better or worse than any others. Overall, it was enjoyable though.

This is not a book club version.
This book was a real page turner. Very exciting and interesting reading if you like mysteries and archaeology.
