Cold Storage by David Koepp
4.0
Half action-thriller and half creature feature, Cold Storage stands as an absolute page-turner of entertainment. The novel is not perfect: location spacing can feel a bit difficult to imagine, and some aspects of the plot do feel a bit contrived, over-the-top, and belief-stretching. However, as for the last concern, solid science-fiction will always root the reader in reality while slightly coaxing the mind beyond the outer limits of rationality. The character set is healthily varied, humor (while not as dark as some may claim) is refreshingly sprinkled throughout, and the narrative pull is unrelenting. David Koepp has crafted a story that reads like a classic screenplay in novel form. Don't start this book unless the rest of the day or weekend is available to finish it!
