Publisher's summary

The Rand scientific expedition entered the lush wilderness of the Amazon and never returned. Years later, one of its members has stumbled out of the world's most inhospitable rainforest - a former Special Forces soldier, scarred, mutilated, terrified, and mere hours from death, who went in with one arm missing...and came out with both intact.

Unable to comprehend this inexplicable event, the government sends Nathan Rand into this impenetrable secret world of undreamed-of perils, to follow the trail of his vanished father...toward mysteries that must be solved at any cost.

But the nightmare that is awaiting Nate and his team of scientists and seasoned U.S. Rangers dwarfs any danger they anticipated - an ancient, unspoken terror, a power beyond human imagining - that can forever alter the world.

Very good and different.

I have read this book before, as well as listening to it So this is my third time. It's always entertaining and well written. I love the books by James Rollins. Always some science, history and a bit of fantasy.

Different - in a good way

Starts out slow & somewhat confusing, but well worth the effort. Surprises lurk in every corner.

Rollins is a creative genius!

As always, Rollins captivates the reader from the very beginning of the story and continuing with intricate twists, personal attachment to the characters, and a sense of "being" in the story. A true story-teller, Rollins will have you on the edge of your seat. I never wanted to leave my car while listening to the audio version!

Amazonia is amazing!

With all of the books that I've listened to so far this is one of the BEST!

The first page on, you will immediately understand that the author is on another level.

The voice-over by John Meagher add's a great depth to the story line.

Amazingly descriptive - to the point where you can visualize the characters and the story playing out in a movie.
I couldn't get enough of the the book, I can only hope that somehow they can adapt this into a movie.

It is entertaining to and thrilling, you will not be disappointed.

A very entertaining page turner!

James Rollins is a great storyteller and knows how to write an exciting, action story with wonderful characters. I have enjoyed all of his books, including this one. John Meagher, the narrator, did a great job, very easy to understand and pleasant to listen to. The Amazon is such an amazing (and scary) setting for an intense story. If you can suspend belief (some things are not realistic) as I did, this is an amazing story that will keep you reading/listening past your bedtime! I recommend this book if you like exciting action stories with some mystery thrown in!

Drawn out

If I had been reading this book I'm not sure I would have finished it. kinda slow and a bit more like fantasy fiction than mystery thriller.
