Cold Storage is such a fun read! The plot was exciting, I liked the characters (I think Trini was my favorite), and it was surprisingly funny.

A warning: Every male character in this book is terrible.
As other reviews have said, the attempts to explain the science here is very bad in a way that wasn't necessary. When you're working with something from space, "alien" is a good enough explanation! The "mutualistic relationship" as described in the book does more to show the author's lack of understanding of biology than helpfully explain the fungal evolution seen.

Fast paced Sci fi thriller about a killer mushroom. This book is what happens if Dan Brown, Michael Crighton, and the writers of X Files made a baby.
