Really love these books. True thrillers, page turners and escape lit. One of the best without Agent P.

Excellent!

This was a great read.

Great read, had never read this author and was not sure that I would like it or not. Very enjoyable w/a twist at the end. It was a quick read.

If you are familiar with the work of Preston and Child, you will enjoy the suspense and well-researched facts within the story-line. This book is a stand-alone - not tied by character or plot to any of the Pendergast books. More in the vein of Crichton than some of P&C's work - the story follows likable geneticist Guy Carson as he becomes entangled in what could be the last project of his career - and the last genetic project in the world. Entertaining - and scary if you consider that fact isn't too far removed from fiction.

One of their earlier books, 1996 but an excellent example of their collaboration. Mount Dragon is a research complex hidden in the desert of New Mexico. It is led by a visionary genius whose goal is a medical breakthrough. Just reading that much, you know there is a problem somewhere and greedy people who want more and a gang of henchmen and all the things that lead you on the chase to the books conclusion.

Mount Dragon: an enigmatic research complex hidden in the desert of New Mexico. Guy Carson and Susana Cabeza de Vaca have come to Mount Dragon to work with some of the greatest scientific minds on the planet. Led by visionary genius Brent Scopes, their secret goal is a medical breakthrough that promises to bring incalculable benefits to the human race. But while Scopes believes he is leading the way to a new world order, he may in fact be opening the door to mass human extinction. And when Guy and Susana attempt to stop him they find themselves locked in a frightening battle with Scopes, his henchmen, and the apocalyptic nightmare that science has unleased.

Scared the heck out of me......

Another page-turner from the Preston/Child team.

Great suspense complex story.

Very exciting book. This was my first Douglas Preston book and have since picked up several more book by these authors.
