This week’s 50 Book Pledge Featured Read has been deemed “bone-chilling” (Publishers Weekly) and “one of the best in the series” (Booklist). From the #1 New York Times bestselling author comes the latest riveting and suspenseful thriller in the Sigma Force series, The Demon Crown.
The Demon Crown takes us off the coast of Brazil where a team of scientists discover a dark secret—an island where all life has been eradicated, consumed, and possessed by a species beyond imagination. This threat traces back to a terrifying secret buried a century ago beneath the National Mall: a cache of bones preserved in amber, originally hidden away by a cabal of scientists, led by Alexander Graham Bell, to protect humankind. But nothing stays buried forever…
With the ancient threat now free once more, it’s up to the Sigma Force to solve a mystery going back to eons, to the founding of the Smithsonian Institution, and to whenever life first took place on this island. But the menace spreads so quickly. Each attempt to stop it from reconquering the world once again only causes it to grow stronger, smarter, better…
In order to stop the extinction-level threat and expose those involves, Sigma Force Commander Grayson Pierce has to do the unthinkable: join forces with the Sigma’s greatest enemy, even if it means sacrificing one of his own.
Typically, as readers, we worry about how an author is going to keep a series alive and fresh, but with James Rollins, we’ve never had that worry. Every single book in this series (and this is number 13!) is so interesting, packed with action, thoroughly researched, and just such a fun ride! All of James Rollins’ books offer a blend of action, technology, history and science that pulls you in and keeps you there. What else can we say? We just love it.
Well, one more thing: please don’t let this story become real. The threat is downright terrifying and freakishly realistic! But that also makes for a riveting read…
