Publisher's summary

The Rand scientific expedition entered the lush wilderness of the Amazon and never returned. Years later, one of its members has stumbled out of the world's most inhospitable rainforest - a former Special Forces soldier, scarred, mutilated, terrified, and mere hours from death, who went in with one arm missing...and came out with both intact.

Unable to comprehend this inexplicable event, the government sends Nathan Rand into this impenetrable secret world of undreamed-of perils, to follow the trail of his vanished father...toward mysteries that must be solved at any cost.

But the nightmare that is awaiting Nate and his team of scientists and seasoned U.S. Rangers dwarfs any danger they anticipated - an ancient, unspoken terror, a power beyond human imagining - that can forever alter the world.

Top Notch!

I don't write reviews too often but I have to say how blown away I was by this book. Author Jeremy Robinson recommended this as one of his favorites and he did not disappoint. The incredible mythos that are examined here make this book so mind-blowing that I couldn't put it down. Don't miss this novel!

Good story but...

I really enjoyed the story but I feel there are so many narrators that could have done it more justice. Not that third one is bad but just not the strength of voice I'd prefer fit this type story.

Poor man’s Crichton

I love the science & facts woven into a story, it’s imaginative but predictable. Not a bad book but not great.

Vintage Rollins

This book is another Rollins high energy adventure. A little SciFi, a little fighting, a lot of great listening. Rollins is pure escapism.
