Negative Positive
Title: Ugh, a rerun of an old SciFi genre
Review: If you have seen The Day of the Triffids, then this book will be a let down. The books starts slow, peaks with some action about halfway, then starts to repeat itself over and over in the last half of the book. Ignoring the improbable in the guise of science fiction, the characters do not make sense. There appears to be no survival instinct in any of them. They sit on top of mine shafts, yet never explore them. Wind is blowing through the tunnels but they never think to find out from where it is coming. You can skim the last 100 pages and not miss a thing. And worst nothing is explained about the ruins, the Mayans, or the plant. Want a scarey book? Go buy Stephen King's "It."
