The Lost City of the Monkey God: A True Story by Douglas Preston

adventurous informative mysterious medium-paced

2.0

Interesting subject matter, but at times I found myself wondering why certain content was in there. There were some tangents that didn’t seem to make a ton of sense, and the author engaged in a fair deal of score settling

For all the talk of the controversy of the expedition, “and reasonable points made,” the author didn’t seem to grok the points or at least react by changing their language. 

I preferred Chasing the Thrill as an author centric treasure hunt.
