Bloodline A Sigma Force Novel- 2⭐️  I was sucked in by the prologue.  Then it took about 300 way too long to not move the story nor share the important motivating information in any significant  way. So much skipping on my part without any loss of the cool plot points. Would make a great action movie, but not the overly winded and descriptive thriller I wanted to read. Truly was intrigued but then I just wanted it over. Decent twist near the end.

Third time reading this book, and it’s just as good as I remembered. It’s the culmination of 8 books, and includes many twists and turns. Also has one of my all time favorite twists that I did not see coming the first read, yet in hindsight makes sense.

Kane and Tucker are the best

Not one of my favorite Sigma Force books. The subject matter really disturbed me, maybe being a woman and mother colored my opinion. All the medical bits made my skin crawl. That being said, this author really makes you think about how science is being used for (or against) the greater good. I liked the addition of Kane and Tucker, thought they mixed well with the team, but Seichan I could live without. Unfortunately, the events of this book ensure she will be around for the foreseeable future.

I enjoy these types of books. Very Michael Crichton esque. In terms of blending in some science and history into a fictional adventure.

I return every couple of years to the series.

Pretty gross

Pretty gross and horrific stuff in here. It’s Not for new mothers or those who can’t bear the concept of children suffering.

This book delivers with a wallop! I wasn't sure what to expect due to my lack of interest in the previous book. I didn't have to worry with this one. Rollins delivers another hit for Sigma Force and adds a special bonus in Tucker Wayne and his companion Kane. If you are a fan of James Rollins and his Sigma Force series, make sure you add this one to your night stand.

One of James Rollins’s better books in the Sigma series. A more in depth picture of “The Guild” and an interesting set of both new and old characters. Well done.
