Antarktos Rising

De: Jeremy Robinson

Narrado por: R.C. Bray

THE WORLD RACES TO CLAIM A NEW CONTINENT...

A phenomenon known as crustal displacement shifts the Earth's crust, repositioning continents and causing countless deaths. In the wake of the global catastrophe, the world struggles to take care of its displaced billions. But Antarctica, freshly thawed and blooming, has emerged as a new hope. Rather than wage a world war no nation can endure, the leading nations devise a competition, a race to the center of Antarctica, with the three victors dividing the continent.

It is within this race that Mirabelle Whitney, one of the few surviving experts on the continent, grouped with an American special forces unit, finds herself. But the dangers awaiting the team are far worse than feared; beyond the sour history of a torn family, beyond the nefarious intentions of their human enemies, beyond the ancient creatures reborn through anhydrobiosis--there are the Nephilim.

...ONLY TO FIND IT ALREADY TAKEN.

THE STORY CONTINUES!

PRAISE FOR ANTARKTOS RISING:

"Jeremy Robinson is an original and exciting voice. Antarktos Rising has just the right blend of menace and normality---a tale full of intrigue, treachery, and a wealth of secrets.

(Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Venetian Betrayal and The Charlemagne Pursuit)

Trespass at your own risk." (James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of Black Order and The Judas Strain)

Antarkos

Another great story by Jeremy Robinson and excellent performance by RC Bray. This is one of those books which you will not be able to put down.

Very Fun Book

Would you consider the audio edition of Antarktos Rising to be better than the print version?

I only listened to the audio book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Farrel the sniper chick, who doesn't like sniper chicks?

Which scene was your favorite?

Lots of fun scenes. This is a fun book, a great "What If". Of course it would never happen, of course it stretches science and imagination...but that is what fiction is for. Lots of witty but not trite remarks and observations. Even the resurrected bad guys don't come off as fake...in fact, the author makes them more real in my mind that what the Bible says about them. My favorite scene is Meryl and his daughter first go off to talk alone...there is a sense of mystery there and danger when they are rushed.

If you could take any character from Antarktos Rising out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Farrel the sniper chick, but, of course, it might be my last dinner date.

Any additional comments?

Having listened to the audio books of Shackleton, Scott, and Amundson I can say that this is just a fun book for audio book fans. It does not make you say "Argh" as you listen to it...too much...even then it bounces gamely back and does not break continuity with the objective of the author...to tell a story.

Phenomenal!

I wasn't sure what to expect but WOW! this book delivers on every level. I hope there is a follow up.

This is where it started.

I read the Last Hunter series and it was good. I missed this book and realize this is where the story started and how brilliant changes to the Last Hunter books to accommodate this beginning story. I reccomend reading them in order if you can. If not like me, it's still a great story and you can follow how things were morphed into the Last Hunter books. Really good and Mr Bray was excellent as always.

Great story.

I having been listening to his Last Hunter series and this fits in nicely after the second one.

Awesome!

Great story as usual from Jeremy Robinson. And as always, great narration by RC Bray. Apocalypse, battle, love, loss, dinosaurs, and the supernatural, not to mention man's best friend, this book has it all.

Jeremy Robinson has done it again

I just could seem to disengage, like always, his stories and characters never disappoint. Well worth the time.

a good addition to the last Hunter

it took me a minute to finish it. but it was definitely worth it. if you enjoyed the last Hunter Saga, this gives you more insight.

Love this! It’s really book 3a

After you have listened to book 3 and before you listen to book 4, listen to this story that parallels book 3 and helps you find out more about a group of key characters! Very satisfying!!!

A good read...

A good read... And a fun listen...
All I can say is I hope this never happens...
