Title: Insipid, inane, inept tripe
Review: First time reading a Reilly book. It will be the last. The ridiculous plot line is barely tolerable even taken at face value i.e. an "action-adventure yarn". This author obviously does no research at all. He writes off the top of his head just to produce "action," but there is little semblance of any reality in what he describes whether e.g. it's surgical procedures and animal physiology to technology.This book was recommended as an alternative to eg Crichton, Preston, L. Child and James Rollins. Wrong, not even close. All those authors are ultra consistent in their stories and on a totally different writing level (read: post-college).Reilly is a mediocre writer and if his goal is to dwell in the action adventure genre that others have successfully exploited eg Clive Cussler (who I also judge as inferior to the above), then the inside jackets of his books should warn potential readers that his writing is catering to the young male teenager population.
