Book Reviews of Antarktos Rising - A Novel
Book Review: Antarktos rose to my acceptance
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very good action oriented book that has a little of everything. Characters are well written and their are a variety of characters from a father/daughter with a rocky relationship to characters of international importance that oppose and ultimately come together in a time of termoil.The novel starts at a nice pace and keeps up the suspense.I would describe it as a cross between "Jurassic Park", "The Land before Time" and "Day After Tomorrow".
This book is timely in a biblical sense with some biblical references from Genesis and Revelation. They are fairly accurate but the fictional aspect of the book distorts the references; although, in an entertaining fashion.
Id love to see a sequel to this book and will probably read other novels that this author publishes.
I recommend it as an fun, entertaining read for a cold fall or winter night.
Book Review: Engaging
Summary: 5 Stars
Very well written and quite enjoyable. The combination of fact and fantasy, science and science fiction, make for a delightful page-turner. I look forward to reading more from Jeremy and am already planning my next purchases!Book Review: Really bad science jumps the shark
Summary: 1 Stars
I actually am willing to let quite a bit by in terms of reality when reading a book. But this was beyond willing suspension of disbelief. First the entire ocean flash freezes while leaving a man in the "protection" of a boat intact? The amount of energy required for that to occur is phenomenal.
Taking some breaths and reading further I was treated to characters so mono-dimensional that they should be able to hide from the rampaging dinosaurs by turning sideways.
The villains at the end have a weak spot that is so ridiculous given the current human level of technology that it made me wonder if the protagonist's were welding potatoes guns.
Book Review: Explosive, Spine Tingling Adventure
Summary: 5 Stars
Jeremy Robinson has done it again with his new, explosive action/adventure novel that will keep you turning pages well into the night. Antarktos Rising plunges the modern world into the savage, ancient earth of eons past. Through a series of cataclysmic events, the continent of Antarctica is transformed into an apparent paradise while most of the inhabited earth is destroyed through a massive freeze. In order to survive, the nations of the earth race to claim the formerly frozen Antarctica as their new home. However, as teams from the various countries race to the center of the now tropical Antarctica, they find that the land is not the only thing thawed from the eons of deep freeze--so were some of the indigenous species that once roamed and ruled the continent. The journey to the center of Antarctica--now known by its ancient name of Antarktos--is the least of mankind's goals. Once they start, they must survive some of the most deadly obstacles ever faced. Jeremy Robinson takes you on their journey step-by-step through the spine tingling adventure with each turn of the page, making you wonder how the team can get out of their current danger. He scarcely gives you time to catch your breath before the team encounters a new, more deadly danger. If you have a list of books to read this summer, put Antarktos Rising at the top today. Book Review: a great surpize
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one book you can not put down. It is fast paced and a great read. I had to order the rest of his books just to see if he will be a great writer as I believe he will be.
