Rollins, James Black Order: A Sigma Novel
Harper May 29, 2007 0-06-076537-2 / 9780060765378 Paperback Very Good+
What would thriller writers do without the Nazis? At the start of Rollins's inventive eighth Sigma Force novel, a secret experiment is smuggled out of Berlin in the waning days of WWII. While the Americans have been working o n the atomic bomb, the Nazis were delving into the paradoxical tenets of qu antum mechanics. In the present day, descendants of Heinrich Himmler are tr ying to create a new race of Aryan supermen. Last seen in 2005's Map of Bon es, Painter Crowe and Grayson Pierce, employees of Sigma Force, a secret ar m of the U.S. military, venture to the brink of death to puzzle out mysteri es that encompass the theories of evolution, intelligent design, and the ph ysical and spiritual nature of love and God. It's a tall order, but every t ime the author appears to have stretched too far, he saves the read by thro wing in a fascinating scientific or historical fact, plus a scene of heart- pumping action. This is Cussler and Ludlum territory with a dash of Dan Bro wn, sure to please devotees of any of these authors.

Rollins, James Map of Bones
Avon April 25, 2006 0-06-076524-0 / 9780060765248 Paperback Very Good+
This novel about an ancient secret society and the race to find priceless a ntiquities is sure to be compared to Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code, but, in eve ry way, it's a much better book. Where Brown's best-seller was predictable despite its compelling premise, this tale is clever and suspenseful. Where Code featured ropey dialogue and assembly-line characters, this one offers (mostly) real people engaging in (mostly) real discourse. Like Brown, Rolli ns makes the most of a moderately implausible premise, this one requiring t hat the reader accept the literal truth of a certain allegorical aspect of the Bible. But, as both books prove, a thriller can be as implausible as it likes as long as it is entertainingly developed. Fans of The Da Vinci Code will obviously want to read Map of Bones, but even those who found Brown's opus unpalatable will thoroughly enjoy the taste of this one.

Rollins, James The Last Oracle
Orion 1 May 2009 1-4091-0220-3 / 9781409102205 Paperback As New
A crisp clean softcover (as new). What if you could bio-engineer the next great world prophet, to scientifically produce the next Buddha, the next Mohammed, or the next Jesus? Would it mark the Second Coming or initiate a chain reaction leading to the end of mankind? A think tank of world scientists formed during the Cold War has discovered a way to manipulate and enhance autistic children who show savant talents - mathematical geniuses, statistical masterminds, brilliant conceptual artists - but a strange side-effect begins to arise. Before it can be analyzed fully, a rogue group of scientists begin their own secret experimentation with a cadre of the best children. They seek to create a world prophet for the new millennium, one to be manipulated to create a new era of global peace - a peace on their own terms. But such manipulation has grim consequences as a biological meltdown among the children begins to occur - turning the innocent into something frightening. Can Commander Gray Pierce and his elite SIGMA Force stop the experiments before they engineer the extinction of mankind? It will be a race against time to solve a mystery that dates back to the first famous oracle of history - the Oracle of Delphi...
