Kurzbeschreibung
When the Director of the CIA is handed a report from a Brazilian morgue documenting the death of Agent Clark, who disappeared in the Amazon jungle, it doesn't take long for him to realize why he has been notified. In one hand, he holds a pre-expedition photo of Clark, waving with the one arm he has left after a bullet cost him the other, in his other hand, the director holds a photo from the morgue - both arms resting by Clark's sides...

Certainly it is no highly scientific novel and some ideas might seem a little unbelievable. But in my view that's what makes it so exciting. Rollins creates a world unknown and absolutely strange for most of us and he creates it so well that you get part of this dangerous and fantastic world. It is a pretty exciting novel, which provides a lot of entertainment and suspense, for those, who let themselves in for an adventure, which is not too realistic but which plays with our fears in a very successful way. Absolutely recomendable!!!!

A good story with a lot of interesting details, but not exactly a page-turner - because the author uses too many clichés and his storytelling abilities do not match his ambitions.

The Mighty Tor-Tor
5. Dezember 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
Here you go folks, a book seemingly designed for those with ADD. Extreme action, mutated creatures, explosives, giant jaguars, violence( including dismemberment and head shrinking!), a dash of sex, poison, betrayal, technology on the fritz, insects that will eat you alive, pirahnas that will chase you onto land, giant caimans that will jump into trees, a lost tribe, a plague threatening the world, prehistoric plants, and regenerating body parts!
Whew, that's a lot of stuff going on and James Rollins pulls most of it off without a glitch. The characters are strong enough to make you care, the action is most definitely exciting, the various creatures interesting and nasty enough to shock and awe even the most poised reader. So why not 5 stars? Well...
The ending could have been better, there could have been a little bit more surprise when it comes to the realization of who the "mole" is (that was kinda Scooby Doo-ish), and those who deserved horrible demises get dispatched rather quickly.
However, if you have read Rollins earlier work you most likely won't be dissapointed here. No matter how you look at it this guy is damn fun to read, and his books would make excellent movies. I know I'd buy a ticket, and speaking of buying check out Subterrranean and Excavation, both solid actioners.
No Tor-Tors were harmed in the writing of this review.

I Love a Mystery
15. April 2002
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
When I was a boy (1946), I used to lay in bed and listen to a radio show called "I Love a Mystery". It only lasted for 15 minutes each night but use to scare the hell out of me as Doc, Reggie and Jack took on the mystery and majic of the night. This book had the same effect as each night I would read a few chapters about a team of men and women who were trying to locate a group that disappeared 5 years earlier in the amazon. The thrill of the quest which was followed by non-stop action and a little majic had me turning each page slowly so I won't miss a thing even though I was never sure what would happen next. If you want to take a wild ride with James Rollins down the Amazon never knowing what's aroound the bend as you encounter creatures, old enemies and a whole new world, then put on a reading lamp, turn down the lights and sit back, hang on, and enjoy.
I read all the mystery and thrillers on the market and this is clearly one of the best this year.........

Delivers start to finish action!
26. August 2004
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Judging this book by its genre gives it a solid 5. Rollins gets better with each book. There is enough action to keep you up all night, and though some reviewers have not thought the characters were interesting, I disagree. I felt the characterization was excellent, especially for an adventure novel of this type. It bordered on being too gruesome in its torture details...I don't like that...but all in all this book held me spellbound throughout. The ending was totally satisfying too. I heartily recommend it. (And after you've read this one, be SURE to get Sandstorm! It is even better!)
