Wow. Surprisingly good book.
It's action/adventure with a little supernatural thrown in. The main character Annja Creed is, to me, a Lara Croft clone. So much so that at one point in the book she actually tells someone she's not a videogame heroine.
Now, to be fair and tell about some of the "down points", if you can call it that - Annja is one of those characters that can do just about anything - like Dirk Pitt from the Clive Cussler novels.
She's an archeologist in her mid to late 20's, beautiful, can speak multiple languages and read even more, can rock climb without using any equipment, knows martial arts - and apparently has a supernatural secret that we don't fully get explained in the this the first book of an apparently on-going series.
That stuff can be a negative in some instances - but it makes for a great exciting adventure here.
