About this ebook

Far in the future...an urgent distress signal is received from a classified Union Aerospace Corporation research facility based on Olduvai, Mars -- and is suddenly silenced. Assigned to either contain or quarantine the mysterious threat, a crack strike team comprised of the most hard-bitten marines around believes that this will be another routine seek-and-destroy mission. But they will soon come face-to-face with the hellish nightmares that the researchers' unorthodox experiments have unleashed on Olduvai -- a place where doom is waiting....

Ratings and reviews

Really good book. Loved the movie although i know a lot of people didn't (can't imagine why besides the changes in story and where the demons came from, i mean its still good) new movie in production, can't wait. Anyway this book is surprisingly good even though its based off the movie not the game. Although matthew Costellos books are real good as well

Enjoyed the book, always been a fan of the Doom universe.

Read the real books.
