I've found the rating on Audible to trustworthy, so I've no idea how this book got a four star rating. This was my first James Rollins book, but I won't spend money on anything he's written again. Only very rarely will I quit an audiobook, but this one was simply too painful to continue. This book is so full of clichés, and the narrator was so poor, I didn't even bother to finish listening to this book. Would you try another book from James Rollins and/or John Meagher? On the plus side, this is the worst book I have ever read, so I guess life has been good to me. The most common phrase uttered by both "heros" is "Whut?" in a horrible, horrible Texas drawl that just drilled my teeth. And of course we have the Gay coward that turns out to be a hero, and the 10 year old child prodigy savage nicotine addict to drop hints to them when they all get confused. It is a good thing each of them has a good woman by his side to help him think or they would never have figured this out. What are you people thinking? The main characters are from Texas (as am I) and the are so dumb. This is my first review, and the only reason I am bothering is because the book was so bad, and the overall rating is so good, that I needed to express my thoughts before some other poor soul got sucked into buying it, as I did, based on a weak but passable three and a half star rating. I can only truely describe this book with one word."Cheesey".
