I've read all of the books in the Sigma Force series (as well as the authors stand alone novels) and I usually love them, but I just couldn't get invested in this one! I can't put my finger on what it was but I just felt a disconnect with this one compared to others. I think I'll need to revisit it at some point and hopefully it enjoy it more.
I've been catching up on the Sigma Force books but I'm going to take a break for a while after this one.
Reading several in a row makes it too easy to see the similarities between the books.
In particular, I don't like the never ending increase in the tension.
In this book, we have a situation that will lead to a world wide cataclysm in a few days but that is not scary enough.
So one of our heroes has to be kidnapped and taken to a North Korean prison to be tortured,
And then that's not enough there have to be problems with the rescue attempt.
If you have the tension at 11, you don't have to go to 15.
Anyway, I thought the connection between ancient artifacts and the disaster was fun and I look forward to more of that but I need a few weeks off before I start the next book.
It was odd. This was his first book I was a little let down by. Still good and enjoyable, maybe the ending. It just did not grip me like his last few. Maybe Rollins bar is getting set to high :) On to the next!
I enjoyed this a lot more than I though I would. Now I have to go back and read the first eight!
Very much like the other books by Rollins in the Sigma series. If you like them, you'll like this one.
