Definitely readable. However, the main plot line carried a major event stolen from a popular eighties movie. Moreover, the denouement was cobbled together with a bunch of unrealistic and corny twists and turns. The underlying reveal was too fantastical to warrant a higher rating, but as a fast-paced mass market thriller it was compelling albeit in a formulaic way. Just an average read overall.

I devoured this book. I had no idea where it was going, but boy oh boy, I enjoyed it so much when I got there. Definitely going to be picking up the sequel!

This was a ridiculous amount of fun. It really hit the spot. Adventure, mystery and monsters. All the things I love.
