Summary: Living Proof Cousins Shouldn't Marry!!
Review: This story is absolutely preposterous and yet completely terrifying in its possibilities! The Ice-Man meets Dolly presents the reader with a plethora of unpleasant possibilities about the past AND the future of humankind. Highly recommended!!

Summary: Crichton on a bad day
Review: Wilson's book has a superb idea, which is why I bought the book. He starts off well, but as the plot moves on...he begins to lose it. The plot gets worse and worse as the story moves on. He starts off with an excellent idea, but he just cannot seem to clinch it. What starts off as a Crichton type novel finishes with a weak alien sub-plot. Like I said, great idea, but Wilson just cannot seem to pull it off. Better luck next time (or at least I hope so, because I purchased Extinct and Fertile Ground at the same time). If you want to read this novel, check it out, it isn't quite worth the money, purchase a Crichton novel instead, and head to your public library for this one.
