"Bought this after a suggestion by Amazon - started it on the train on Friday, and then lost the rest of the evening and my Saturday morning. Very fast paced with great technology that isnt over done, scary (gory) bits, and I love the characters. Alex Hunter is great and the Mossad girl was excellent - love to see strong women kick ass! Now to track down his first one." — Cate (5 out of 5 stars)

" Excellent thriller. Picked it up on a whim and I'm glad I did! Really enjoyed this one, highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a fast-paced action adventure. "
" This one was ok for me even though the character were predictable. Overall a good read. "
" Heart stopping page turner. "
" Great, enjoyable book. Very good idea for a story. Although it didn't give me the shivers I had reading "Under the dark ice". This one I find a little bit worse.... "
" I really liked this a lot. Great pace, memorable characters and solid research combined with a plot that was solid. Think Michael Crichton combined with Clive Cussler. The intelligent reader's Matthew Reilly. "
" Another great thriller of the Preston Child variety. "
" Starts a bit slow but picks up to none stop thrills and chills good story and worth a read. "
" Just as good as his first and kept me awake at night - I like his imagination "
" Another exciting and well-written entry in the Alex Hunter series. Beck does a good job of placing old-fashioned monsters in a contemporary SF context. "
" Good book, fast paced, bit over the top but fun "
" A worthy follow-up to Beneath the Dark Ice, featuring American super soldier code named the Arcadian. Plenty of action, thrills, and the mandatory monster chasing the characters down. A fun read, and I like this series. "
" My copy reflects the other title "Return of the Prophet" another good book from Mr Beck, keep them coming. "
" A bit far fetched even for a stupid action packed read. "
" Amazing imagination!!! "
" Another brilliant novel from action writer Greig Beck. Original, scary, exciting, and explosive page after page. "
" I read Beck's first book Beneath the Dark Ice and could not put it down. I devoured Dark Rising even faster. I love the Arcadian books and can't wait to get my hands on more. "
" It's a Ok read. Jack Hunter is being shown nearly Super Human and in some parts it goes beyond reasonably. "
" Honestly this is a pretty silly book, but I did enjoy reading it heaps. A sort of scientific techno thriller that has a tremendous pace and momentum. File next to Matthew Reilly... "
" I loved the way Greig is developing Alex Hunter's abilities. The plot was gripping and I am looking forward to the nexxt in this series. Good book to get teenage boys into reading, a presi for the nder 30 males friend or for any action loving reader. "
" After I enjoyed the heck out of 'Beneath The Dark Ice', I picked this one up. It was pretty good, but I much more enjoyed the antagonist(s) of the first book. Looking forward to Arcadian #3. "
" I really did not care for this book.. I thought the idea was great, which is why I picked it up.. I did not care for the writing, I thought it was very choppy.. Again the idea was great.. "
