title: The Himalayan Codex: An R. J. MacCready Novel
author:  Bill Schutt 
description: Looks like Schutt and Finch are filling the void left by the passing of Michael Crichton. (James Cameron, director/writer/explorer)<br /><br />Schutt and Finch provide a textbook example of how to make the fantastic easy to buy into with their superior second Crichton-esque thriller featuring field zoologist R. J. MacCready. (Publishers Weekly <strong>(starred review)</strong>)<br /><br />Bill Schutt and J.R. Finch are two of the best adventure writers to hit the scene in a long time. They blend action and science into a read that opens the door to much, much more. My kind of book! (Clive Cussler, #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author)<br /><br />Looks like Schutt and Finch are filling the void left by the passing of Michael Crichton.<br /> (James Cameron, director/writer/explorer)<br /><br /><em>Hells Gate</em> has everything I love in a book: rip-roaring action, strange-but-authentic science, and characters that pop right off the page. An adventure that harkens to the glory days of H. Rider Haggard and H.G. Wells. Warning: Do NOT miss this debut! (James Rollins, #1<em>New York Times</em> bestselling author on <em>Hells Gate</em>)<br /><br />This one pushes the envelope to the edge and beyond, with tension and imagination that crackles from the first page. A terrific story, terrifically told. So take a walk on the perilous side, if you dare. (Steve Berry, <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>The 14th Colony</em> on <em>Hells Gate</em>)<br /><br />Just think Indiana Jones. For that matter, this yarn evokes more than a few reminders of Stephen King, Joseph Conrad, and Bram Stokers Dracula. Fast-moving fun for thriller readers who enjoy a bit of horror and seeing bad guys get whats coming to them. (<em>Kirkus Reviews</em> (starred review) on <em>Hells Gate</em>)<br /><br />The authors adeptly balance science and suspense, and a detailed afterword lays out how much of the story line is based in history. Michael Crichton fans will be pleased that the ending leaves room for a sequel. (<em>Publishers Weekly</em> (starred review) on <em>Hells Gate</em>)
