About this ebook

Reliquary is the smash hit second book in the Pendergast series, from New York Times bestselling authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child

Hidden deep beneath Manhattan lies a warren of tunnels, sewers, and galleries, mostly forgotten by those who walk the streets above. There lies the ultimate secret of the Museum Beast. When two grotesquely deformed skeletons are found deep in the mud off the Manhattan shoreline, museum curator Margo Green is called in to aid the investigation. Margo must once again team up with police lieutenant D'Agosta and FBI agent Pendergast, as well as the brilliant Dr. Frock, to try and solve the puzzle. The trail soon leads deep underground, where they will face the awakening of a slumbering nightmare... in Reliquary, from bestselling coauthors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.

Ratings and reviews

This one was quite exciting, but a bit more predictable than their first book. The ending twist was not really a surprise, though it was still exciting to read it all being played out. I had a lot of fun reading it, and I am very curious to see where this series goes - I can't imagine that this plant could cause any more trouble!

Patsy A look at the unseen, unheard, invisible people that populate our world and are as a part from mainsteam america as inhabitants from some distant land.

I liked this sequel to Relic with its mix of horror and mystery. I especially liked how different events all intersected in interesting ways.
