The Judas Strain is the first novel by James Rollins that I have read, and I plan to come back for more. He has done enough research in the areas of biology, history, and religion to create a plausible hypothesis that reads well in today's world. His heroes have enough believable strengths, though his villains, in my opinion, fall a little short of the mark in being truly evil. His writing is easy, and he breaks his book into short chapters like the old cliff-hangers that used to play in the movies of the 1940s and 1950s. I enjoy this style of writing because the reader is constantly changing between scenarios without getting bogged down in trying to remember who is who and what is happening.
The only area that I found somewhat difficult to work with was his secret government agency SIGMA, and the ever popular malevolent world-dominating force known as the GUILD. It's a bit of a throwback to Ian Fleming's bad guys known as SMERSH or SPECTRE. Clive Cussler's NUMA is believable because it's transparent with a good purpose though its personnel always seem to get into a heap of trouble. Other than that one area I found The Judas Strain highly entertaining and has made me want to read up on the travels of Marco Polo.
I believe that anybody who buys The Judas Strain will be highly entertained and even gain some knowledge regarding biology and histrory. |
