Good readThe second installment of the trilogy did not disappoint. Loved the historical and anthropological references would highly recommend it to everyone. And I cannot wait for the movie!
Second book in the trilogy. Not usually a sci-fan fan, but this is a great story. It has it all - history, science, and on the edge of your seat, page turning excitement. Self-published too.
I enjoyed reading this book very much. I did some side research on the information referred to and found much of it was at least seriously discussed in the science world, much of it seemed to be serious science. The most unbelievable parts were based on real science. That added a lot of credibility for me, dispensing with the disbelief thing, helped me get in to the story better and added a lot of interest. I now want to follow up on some of the ideas just because its so interesting.The story co...
A.G. Riddle’s second offering in The Origin Trilogy again offers a fast-paced adventure wrapper around a complex plot weaving fiction with hard science and true history into a story delivering more twists than a bag of taffy (the Berlin Patient cured of HIV is factual). Fans of science-fiction will want to not miss this debut trilogy from a writer who will become a major player in the genre.The Atlantis Plague picks up right where The Atlantis Gene left off, and is just as complex, meaning the r...
Yes its full of cliches. Yes its a fast paced hollywood script style of flashing one scene to another. I enjoyed it though so who cares about its faults or short comings - on to book 3
It was hard to keep up with all of the players and the different sides of the activities, but it was a wild, wild ride, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what is going to happen in the final book. I what to see David and Kate again. I am glad I had the ebook at my finger tips as I was listening to Stephen Bel Davies narrate the audio version to me.
Riddle went from a good writer to a great writer with The Altantis Plague. What was started in The Atlantis Gene picks up fantastic momentum and nuance in this story. The book is both character and story driven. So many are one or the other. This sci-fi thriller has it all - action, adventure, alien technology, twisty plots and intrigue. Riddle is one of my favorite new writers. I forgot that I was reading the story. It felt like I was in it. I highly recommend this series.
I would call this book a guilty pleasure. The author does keep the pace up so that I found myself reading the book at 4 a.m. just to finish it. I call it a guilty pleasure because the plot line is rather fantastic and the villains are too two dimensional, but it was a good read.
IncredibleThis was a book that got better and better page by page. The true definition of a page turner. Can't wait to read the final book.
Worse than Atlantic gene. I couldn´t finish it...
This book wasn't as good as its prequel The Atlantis Gene, which was wonderfully weird. The first half of The Atlantis Plague was slow. While it did pick up in the second half of the book the slow first half made this book not good enough to give five stars to.
This was another free book from the Kindle lending library. I enjoyed the first book enough to finish it and read this one but my interest quickly faded. The 2nd book dragged on for me seemingly forever in the middle but picked up a bit near the end just enough for me to stick with it but I'm not sure I need to see where book 3 ends up. There were some neat ideas but many of them were just a bit too far fetched for me to believe. Things started to get a bit too cliche/predictable for me as well
3,5 Stars Find it on Dog Eared BookIt took me a bit longer to get through this ones… Once again we have a Science Fiction Novel, heavy on the Science Part. This was again a part I really enjoyed but one had to concentrate, so one would not miss an important sentence or explanation.In addition to scientific explanations we get a lot of historical background about Malta where I just kind of started to zone out…As in Part 1 we do have a lot of characters which is sometimes a big confusion to actual...
I remember absolutely nothing from the first book, but I was able to remember enough to follow along. I didn't hate it, but the...plot choice...came out of nowhere. While I understand it, it's a change in subgenre that didn't feel natural (and I love a good subgenre change, so you have to work for me to not like it).Recommended 15+ for violence, language, mentions of sex/non-graphic paragraph of sex (it's Christmas and I've stuffed my face with cookies go with me here), death, and anything else
I began reading this book immediately after reading The Atlantis Gene. This book continues with an apocalyptic plague threatening extinction for humans. With organizations called Immari and Orchid , fighting over a solution, only Kate Warner has the ability to find the solution.Whilst Kate and David spend most of the book separated, the book still retains a lot of the suspense and action like the first book. Unfortunately, the book did not give me the same suspense of disbelief that I felt befor...
