Review to come. I think it's 3,5 stars but since I cannot give halves.This was a fast paced adventure book with some historic information. I really enjoy the premises and the world James Rollins created. James Rollins really gives soul to the characters and the various characters from different race...
This story intriques me. It reminds me of Peter Pan and the Star Catchers with out the Disney story behind it. I will read the next book in the series. It is ideal for any young boy that seeks adventure on your Christmas list.
We finished this the other day. Raimi was into it and wants to read more. Not me, so much.
Started 2-1-10DELIGHTFUL! Very different but easily as good as Rollins's "adult" novels. And, if anything, more stressful--in that the concern of the kid "getting caught" is way worse than any physical danger.
