Representaion Toward Books Bloodline (Sigma Force #8)
James Rollins takes you to the edge of modern medicine, genetics, and technology, revealing the next evolutionary leap forward: Immortality — a future conceived through the monstrous ingenuity of man... Galilee, 1025. A cunning Templar knight uncovers a holy treasure: the Bachal Isu — the staff of Jesus Christ — a priceless icon that holds a mysterious and terrifying power that will forever change humanity if unleashed.A millennium later, Somali pirates hijack a yacht off the coast off the Horn of Africa, kidnapping a young pregnant American woman and brutally killing her husband. Painter Crowe and his SIGMA team are enlisted for the top secret rescue mission. The kidnapped woman is Amanda Gant-Bennett, the daughter of U.S. president James Gant. Crowe is more than a little suspicious that the kidnapping masks a far more nefarious plot.
In the field, Commander Gray Pierce leads his small team of operatives into the treacherous African jungle to find the missing woman. But what should be a straightforward rescue turns into a fiery ambush and a deadly act of betrayal. As Commander Pierce and his team discover, the hostage is a pawn in a shattering act of terrorism with dark and shocking repercussions. And the danger is only beginning...

This has probably been my favorite in the series. I had trouble putting it down and I could wait to get back to it.The formula is pretty much the same in all Rollins books but reading them apart from each other, I don't really get tired of it. They are just kind of fun action books full of science and fun characters.Blood Lines By James RollinsThe best Sigma Force Writing yet!This is the latest in the Sigma Force series. To me, its likely the best one yet. Ill tip my hat to the fact that there is a cadence to these books that allows some of the surprises to be expected in one way or another. Thats likely the case with many series that run longer than 5 or 6 books. That accepted, its the case here. I also had some trouble wondering why, after so many books, each book having about a year between them in story
My God, this was the MOST FUN I had racing through the pages of a novel in recent times! I was eagerly waiting to read the book for so long as this one was promised to be the Finale of the ongoing Sigma Vs. Guild war, and Rollins painstakingly slowly but rightfully built up that ever escalating war since the very first book of the series Sandstorm through the last seven books of the series.... and boy oh boy, did he finally deliver! He gave us all the actions and mysteries and sheer epicness
I read this book in a few days (a plus ). It flows and is good entertainment. The action is ok and allot of it. The characters are very one sided and the story itself seems unlikely to me. I somehow do not connect to stories where the hero's go from one near death to another all the time and somehow manage to survive against all odds. Most of the characters where the super trained commando type, which can beat anything. They do not seem to have any other side. There was a pathetic attempt to
First Line: They once called her a witch and a whore.Author James Rollins brings us the eighth adventure of Sigma Force, an elite covert arm of the Defense Department composed of former Special Forces officers who've been trained as experts in various scientific fields.Once again that fascinating organization of old, the Knights Templar, provide background for a novel. Of the nine original members of the Templars, only one is not known by name-- and that is the member Rollins weaves his story
Yet another roller coaster of a book from James Rollins. The usual suspects are involved in this story with Sigma Force being seriously challenged by The Guild. This is the book in which the real plans of The Guild is revealed. It involves the hunt for immortality, with much scientific and religious detail used to support the premise on which the story is based. Sigma have two additional helpers in the shape of Tucker and his dog Kane who featured in the novella "Tracker " written to introduce
Ok so after having devoured half of this series you'd think I'd get sick of the science+action+ass-kicking combo, but nope! Rollins knows his stuff, and he does it well. What really, truly broke the mold on this was Tucker & Kane. I am a big animal lover and even incorporate animals in my own books. I get a lot of my inspiration from my own two dogs. So when Rollins introduced Kane (military dog, Tucker's partner), and to top it off had scenes from the dog's POV... I was ready to frown and
