		<description><![CDATA[Cemetery Dance by Douglas Preston &#38; Lincoln Child is the ninth Pendergast novel.  It came out in May 2009.  It was an interesting read, but I don’t think as good as past novels.  The story revolves around a cult that has been squatting in Inwood Hill Park in Manhattan.  Bill Smithback, who has been featured in other novels, is murdered by a “zombie” that is linked to the cult.  Perndergast and Vinnie D’Agosta spend the remainder of the book searching down clues and trying to make sense of bizarre killings including Smithback&#8217;s. Cemetery Dance is a good summer read to pass the time.  The most interesting parts of the book to me were the descriptions of parts of Manhattan that I have never been to before and that are only visible from the water.  One day I would like to take a boat around Manhattan going into the kills, canals and around the islands.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Terminal Freeze by Lincoln Child was a good fast adventure thriller.  It only took me a couple of nights to read.  The plot was very similar to Relic, Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston’s most famous book/movie.  The story revolves around a group of scientists researching global warming at a mothballed USAF radar station in the Arctic.  The scientists discover a creature in an ice cave.  The sponsors of the expedition, a media conglomerate, immediately send a production crew to create a live TV special of the creature being unfrozen from the ice.  Before the creature can be revealed to the world, it comes alive and of course starts preying on the scientists and production crew in a trapped environment during a blizzard.  I didn’t see that coming.   :-) While the story line is pretty predictable except for the typical Mr. Child zinger at the end.  This book was more forumla than previous books as you know that any character who has not been developed earlier and starts a chapter is about to endup in harms way.  The story was interesting in the aspect that no one character was really focused on or the center of the story.  I liked the concept of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished Utopia by Lincoln Child last night.  It is a solid adventure thriller that had plot similarities to the original Die Hard movie.  The basic plot is that Utopia, a cutting edge amusement park near Las Vegas is having troubles with its master robotic controller network.  The designer of the “Metanet,” Andrew Warne is called to come to the amusement park and help fix the problem.  The day that Andrew arrives at Utopia, a group of criminals execute their plan to rob the park.  The novel centers on the standard plot line where an average person is called to perform extraordinary action in a time of crisis.  To make things more interesting Andrew has taken his fourteen year old daughter to Utopia and the director of the park is his ex-girlfriend.  The book has lots of action and as usual I had a hard time putting it down.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Deep Storm by Lincoln Child is a very enjoyable action novel.  The story is about an ex-naval doctor, Peter Crane, who is called to investigate mysterious illnesses aboard a submerged research facility two miles below the Atlantic.  Dr. Crane discovers that the research being done at the facility is not what he was told and has implications for the planet.  There are plenty of twists and turns that stop you from putting down the book.  It is very Twilight Zoneish with the zinger at the end similar to The Ice Limit that Lincoln Child published with Douglas Preston.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished the 8th Pendergast novel, The Wheel of Darkness by Douglas Preston &#38; Lincoln Child a couple of days ago.  It was very enjoyable as the other series of Pendergast novels have been.  Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child are currently some of my favorite fiction writers.  The book only took me three days to finish, but confess I spent most of my free time devouring it. This book has Special Agent Aloysius Perdergast of the FBI and his immortal ward Constance Greene searching for a lost Tibetan relic on an ocean liner.  The storyline is pretty straight forward, but did keep me riveted.  I like stories that have realism so was a little put off by the smoke monster.  The concept that there is a geometrical drawing that can reprogram or deprogram the human mind I thought was intriguing.  It reminded me of that 70s movie with the British actor when somebody invents a strobe light that causes momentarily paralyses and amnesia.   My only compliant was that there wasn’t much character development for Perdergast or the enigmatic Miss Greene.  I would very much like to see a book bringing out her story.  Or maybe was in one of the [...]]]></description>
