Ratings and reviews

Intriguing page turning book that seems to unveil life in the center of the world and how its sustained its a tricky story don't tread in unknown territory And think you won't get abducted

I really enjoyed this book as it was a surprise. I expected a medical thriller. I didn't know Robin Cook wrote Sci-fi. As I read my way through his books I find I learn a lot and this book was no exception. I am looking to the next book, whatever genre it is.

It's just good. I wouldn't say it's so interesting. Feel like this has been copied from a lot of similar stories.
