Title: Comic Books Are Deeper Than This
Product review: Actually Amazonia reads like an extended episode of Jonny Quest, only not as sophisticated. One of the characters (and I use the term loosely) travels with a pet jaguar. The military contingent are equivilent to Star Trek's "red shirts" -- expendable extras who exist only to get killed. In Amazonia, they are killed by giant mutant creatures. The sections involving an obligatory and chiched romance and the author's occasional lectures on the value of the rain forest (spare us, please) are absolutely must-skip reading.I know it's supposed to be mindless fun, but this is all a little TOO mindless. I'm a big fan of Preston and Child thrillers and this falls far short.
