Review title: Silly plot, flat characters
Product review: After reading all the glowing reviews, I bought Area 51. I can't believe this is the same book everyone else is reviewing. It's not a bad book, but it is certainly not a 5-star book.Area 51 attempts to explain every mystery in the world, like Atlantis, the Great Pyramid, Easter Island, UFOs, crop circles, cave paintings, the creation of the atom bomb, the Nazis, and your wife's latest haircut. The large amount of mysteries described and supposedly solved with a single common solution really stretches the believability factor. The plot, while action-packed, is silly and unbelievable. The characters are static, two-dimensional, cookie-cutter stereotypes with no growth or development whatsoever.Area 51 is a quick pulp novel with not a lot of depth. If you just want a quick mindless read, it's okay. If you're looking for something with a bit more meat and believability, look elsewhere.
