They are not human. They are not natural. They are not friendly. At a research station in Antarctica, five of the world's top scientists have been brought together to solve one of the greatest mysteries in human history. Their subject, however, is anything but human. Deep beneath the ice, the submerged ruins of a lost civilization hold the key to the strange mutations that each scientist has encountered across the globe. When a series of sound waves trigger the ancient organisms, a new kind of evolution begins. A long-extinct life form is reborn.

Story4 out of 5 stars 101
An accident during the construction of a tunnel beneath the Bering Strait leads to the discovery of a network of caverns and evidence that hints at the survival of a primitive human species. Led by DARPA technologist Reinhard Thyssen, a team of experts from around the globe is dispatched into the subterranean maze to discover all they can before the caves completely flood. Something lurks in the darkness, though. A creature has evolved into a predator unlike any the world has ever known, and it's up to the scientists to make sure that it never reaches the surface.

Mike Monroe and Jane Baxter barely survived their terrifying journey to the centre of the Earth. But a burning curiosity still tormented them about the origins of the pale creatures in the stygian darkness of the caves, and why were their dreams also haunted by something huge and monstrous that seemed as old as time itself? Now, news of a Russian military expedition has forced their hands and also meant they must go back to a place they swore they’d never return. But this time they’re going with a team of highly skilled mercenaries and scientists to help them track the Russians.

When the body of Hunter Gearhardt washes up on the banks of a seasonal river outside of Pomacochas, Peru, with only samples of vegetation, a handful of feathers, two black- and gray-streaked rocks, and a golden headdress of indeterminate origin in his possession, his grieving father launches an expedition to determine how his son died. The party uses these clues to divine Hunter’s route into the jungle, where they find a surviving offshoot of a primitive tribe, long thought to be extinct, and something far more sinister, something that’s been able to avoid discovery for eons for one simple reason: No one leaves the rainforest alive.

Don't Understand all the positive reviews
- By Kindle Customer on 11-07-18
By: Greig Beck
Publisher's Summary
IT HAS SURVIVED.
At a research station in Antarctica, scientists discovered a strange and ancient organism. They thought they could study it, classify it, control it. They couldn't.
IT HAS THRIVED
Six months ago, a secret paramilitary team called Unit 51 was sent to the station. They thought the creature was dead, the nightmare was over. It wasn't.
IT HAS EVOLVED
In a Mexican temple, archaeologists uncover the remains of a half-human hybrid. They believe it is related to the creature in Antarctica, a dark thing of legend that is still alive-and still evolving. They believe it needs a new host to feed, to mutate, to multiply. They're right. And they're next. And the human race might just be headed for extinction...

Excellent book. Quite a few returning characters. I have only two books by Michael McBride, but if the first in this series are any indication of the quality to come, then but them now!
Also, buy the Audible version of this if you can. I highly recommend it.

Outstanding!!!
Michael McBride and Neil Hellegers are an unsurpassed tour de force when it comes to delivering an action-packed and intelligently crafted story. This title is the second in a series that I am eagerly awaiting the Audible release of part 3 for.
Michael McBride weaves a smart, gripping and terrifying storyline that Neil Hellegers masterfully brings to life with his excellent narration.

It's the end of the world and I don't care
This is book two in this series with threats to the human race, alien creatures, evil terrorists. The stakes are pretty high... and yet... I find myself not caring. I felt like this after book one and chalked it up to lots of setup for the next volume. Unfortunately, I was no more enthusiastic after listening to the second volume. I am disappointed. I really wanted to enjoy this story, but it is just not pulling me in. I think I am done with the series, which is something I typically don't do.
The most annoying part is that I can't really tell you why I don't care for it.
I hope those of you who do give this series a try really enjoy it. But I'm afraid I won't be joining you. Good luck.

Not For Me
Premise sounded good, but the book didn't really engage me. It starts off with the creature (in the introduction) and then drags on chapter after chapter with the group trying not to get eaten. There is some ancillary plot items thrown in, but none of it for me was suspenseful. Sorry. It just wasn't a thrill ride like some of the original Lincoln Child or Robin Cook or Michael Crichton.
