Black Order A Sigma Force Novel James Rollins 9780752876450 Books Reviews

I love the mixture of real science & imagination in all the James Rollins books, but this most of all this one..
Perfect books for those of us who like some substance to the fictional stories with excitement & all the thrills, without sinking into mindless action. Nothing wrong with mindless action either. But if you want a book that leads to a broadening of knowledge (the deconstruction at the end helps separate fact & fiction) this one is highly recommended.
You never know where it might lead you.
This is really one of the best if not the best CIGNA force novel. The storyline and the characters are magnificent. The only problem I have with the writing is that at critical point in a segment of the story, the story shifts to another segment. I get why the author does this, but too abrupt. Just my humble opinion, but it does not take away from a great novelist of this genre. It is too bad that this story could not be turned into a movie-way too expensive. Then again, perhaps a smart producer will figure this out.
Starting with mysterious purchases of old manuscripts, seemingly random and senseless murders in a Nepal monastery, the Sigma Force quickly finds that the two random events are linked. Not only are they linked together but they are also tied to a mysterious compound in South Africa. Rollins takes those events and overlays the Nazi development of the Aryan race to develop a story that is fun and interesting to read. At times, Rollins resorts to pseudo science when discussing cloning but it doesn't detract from the storyline.

As with most of the Sigma stories, there is a great deal of action, in fact, at times there might be too much action for a lot of readers but, nevertheless, it does provide for an entertaining story. I found the character of Fiona to be one of the more interesting in this edition of the Sigma stories. Rollins also provides the needed back stories for some of the other major characters. Overall, a quick but enjoyable read.Starting with mysterious purchases of old manuscripts, seemingly random and senseless murders in a Nepal monastery, the Sigma Force quickly finds that the two random events are linked.

I've been reading James Rollins since I picked up The Devil Colony at Target. I have been looking forward to reading each of his Sigma novels with anticipation before buying it. I have been reading each in the order they were written after reading The doomsday Key, The Devil Colony and Bloodline last summer This latest, Black Order, is a slam dunk. I loved everything about it from start to finish.

Im happy that Rollins has brought back Painter Crowe in a more significant roll. I've been fond of him since Sandstorm. And in his second outing, I feel that I know Gray Pierce better than I did. How wonderful that these individuals have become like friends and I see their characters deepen and grow from book to book. He introduces a new character in this book that has become a favorite. I really hope we get to see her again!

While SIGMA Force stories have appeared before, Rollins has greatly developed the basis of this series, and the result is characters that have some claim for personality and glimmers of original plotting. In a genre that isn't particularly noted for novelty and depth of plot, this is a welcome change. If you have enjoyed Rollin's stories before you will like this new work even better.

Several related subplots make up the story. Commander Gray Pierce is in Copenhagen following an auction of rare books that involves some surprise bidders. Attempted murder and arson make what he thought was an easy assignment that he could use as an excuse to have a lover's tryst into a frantic chase that comes very close to nipping him in the bud. Meanwhile, a continent or so away, an isolated Tibetan monastery goes insane, trapping Lisa Cummings, a young doctor studying survival in the severe heights of Mt. Everest. Also hidden in the monastery is Painter Crowe, Director of SIGMA Force. The two join in their own flight from merciless hunters.

Deep in the mountains is hidden the castle Granitschloss, the ultimate retreat of Heinrich Himmler. Nazi experiments interrupted by the end of the war are still carried on there. An arcane technology is being used to create the super race of which Hitler dreamed. But the current residents may be heirs of the Nazi's but they are no longer the monsters of the Third Reich. Gray Pierce and Painter Crowe piece together the truth, that there is an even more secret organization that intends to use the deadly technology hidden at the castle to forward their own goals of world conquest.

Rollins keeps up a good pace, and the suspense builds as Crowe struggles against a deadly condition that is dissolving his body from within even as he tried to put an end to the threats. The story mixes neo-Nazis with not quite Nazi's, secret rays and genetic manipulation, and occult runes with Darwin's bible. Some of the plot is standard thriller fare, but there are just the right number of twists to keep the story fresh. I hope Rollins can keep this up in future volumes, because I'll be buying them.
