It has a kernel of decent science fiction in it, but it's diluted by a combination of a lot of stupid BS stuck in to increase drama and a really abysmal excuse for editing. If you can ignore the editing mistakes and the thrillers-full-of-plot-error BS inserted to make it a "roller coaster thrill ride" you might do ok. It was fun and action packed, just what I expect from James Rollins but the ending doesn't work for me. Not only do they save the world but they manage to turn back time so that all the bad stuff that happened - like a nuclear war, massive earthquakes that cause island chains to disappear. For me it would have made more sense to have them somehow destroy the crystal pillar and then have the incoming nuclear missile hit them, I know all the good guys would have died but it just makes more sense that way. Although I suppose once you've had crystals that can make basalt float, a dog that finds a hidden bomb and the ghosts of an ancient civilization then turning back time is perfectly logical. The story takes place on the first eclipse of the new century...a day which starts off with promise, but ends in tragedy. Solar flares off the sun spark a series of catastrophic earthquakes along the entire Pacific Rim from America to Japan wreaking the highest toll in devastation in modern history. But in the midst of all this, new wonders are found and they lead to the gateway of even more disaster. Ex Navy SEAL Jack Kirkland is strong-armed into assisting the Navy in an undersea salvage of the recently downed Air Force One when he discovers something amazing on the ocean's floor. I had enjoyed James Rollins previous book, "Subterranean". I must admit I found this to be another action-packed thriller which entertained me thoroughly. It's a near future almost science fiction tale that somehow comes off as entirely believable while you're reading it. If you like high-paced adventure at its best, this book will not disappoint you. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
