I highly recommended Impact on all levels. It is one of the best books I have ‘read' in a long time.
" Loved the sci-fi angle, twists and turns "
" Good thriller, The ex-cia monk from T-rex Cannoyn and Blasphomy is back "
" Quite a lively story; however, I find the information in the epilogue too convenient. "
" Another fun thriller by Preston.....enjoy his style, light but interesting. "
" Fun book, keeps you reading "
" A very fast paced book-again, had a hard time putting it down "
" Its not my most favorite books of Douglas Preston but it is a good one. I enjoyed the action/adventure. read this one if you are between books of your favorite series, but it was not a page turner for me. "
" Fairly good action thriller. My complaint about Impact is the same as for The Ice Limit - the book ended right as the real story was just getting started. "
