by James Rollins, John Meagher
What a huge disappointment. My rating now might change depending on my further assessment of the novel. I'm still contemplating whether I should give it 1 or 2 stars. Most of my 1 star are for my dnf books, so I might go ahead and give this a 2. Lucky bastard, but like I said, it might drop down t...
I almost read the entire book in one evening, I just couldn't stop. James Rollins is master when it comes to writing adventure books and this book is so incredibly engrossing that I just couldn't stop reading.

While a little soft on the discussed science, this was a rollicking good adventure story. There was a lot of action to keep you intrigued, a little plea for environmental awareness and just a smattering of love interest. The descriptions of the amazon was galvanizing and allow great visual stimula...
I liked it, it was intense and exciting. I`m really enjoying Rollins' writing style and I`ll check out some of his other books.
