review 1: I put this on my sci-fi shelf so to speak but that is a bit of a stretch. It just barely touches on the ideas of Sci-fi. However, it's a fun book and well written. I enjoyed the pacing which added plenty of tension to the tale. The story really does have a mix of Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park to it. The characters are likable thought they are all a little shallowly drawn. Instead of focusing on the characters it seemed like Graham Brown spent his efforts on creating a believable scenario for the characters to attempt to survive. I look forward to reading the second book in the series, Black Sun. The primary characters are sure to be back. While they don't have a lot of depth they are still relatable and people whom the reader would pull for.
review 2:... more> A very poor plot. Like so many of the recent crop of conspiracy novels this begins well, keeps on deteriorating and ends very poorly. On top of the shoddy story there are inaccuracies in the plot too, e.g. AK 47s at the final battle acquire a sudden lethal quality against the creatures that were all but immune to the bullets from AKs during most of the tale. The explanation (assuming there's one attempted)seems to be that suddenly the bullets are jacketed! less
