Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible!!!!
Review: This book combines all the action of "Into thin Air" with the excitement of "The Cobra Event". I stayed up all night because I couldn't put it down.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Simply Wonderful!
Review: Yet another masterpiece by Preston and Child! The non-stop action kept me turning page after page without stopping. This is clearly a great book by great authors. The only downfall of the novel is the drawn-out ending, but the climax of the story more than makes up for the long end! A must for anyone's library!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT!!!! But I got tired of the desert chase
Review: If you like to be kept on the edge of your seat and kept up all night reading then this is the book for you. It is fast paced, exciting, and terrifyingly realistic. I only wish the desert chase seen was 50 pages shorter. Lava Lava Lava Lava Lava Lava Lava... i got tired of that word!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrifyingly Plausible
Review: Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's latest novel, Mount Dragon, is so mind-numbingly realistic that you sometimes forget you're reading a work of fiction. The blood that pumps through Mount Dragon's veins is actual facts researched by Preston and Child. The idea of a viral doomesday, as presented in the book, is so terrifyingly plausible that the thought makes even the most non-queasy reader queasy. Don't read too much of Mount Dragon at a time or you'll be waking up in cold sweats at three-in-the-morning.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book I have yet had the pleasure of reading!
Review: I loved Mount Dragon! It was a great mix of techno-thriller and horror and suspense. I have read all of Preston/Child's books, but this tops them all. Not to mention it was actually realistic. Things like that could actually happen. That's what made it so suspenseful, and, at times, scary. I can't wait to see if these two master-minds of authors can top this book. It's worth all Five stars, and more!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thrilling! Entertaining! Terrifying!
Review: At of all the novels I have read from Preston, and Child, this had to be the best!!! It was a great mix of computer technology, desert heroics, and genetics. It kept me up for most of the night, I just couldn't put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: EXCELLENT ONE-NIGHT PAGE-TURNER
Review: What an adventure! The authors manage to block out the entire world around me as the world unfolds in my mind. I couldn't stop reading and when the last pages finished, I desperately searchred for more. What a great read!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Lots of imagery which really helped the story.
Review: I enjoyed this book because it was a page turner; however, at some points the story tended to drag or slow down the pace. It could use a little more background on how and when they discovered X-flu. I would only recommend this book to people who enjoy reading about killer viruses.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must read book for Hot Zone lovers!
Review: Guy Carson meets the T-Rex of all pathogens. Way cooler than The Hot Zone

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Quick reading with lot's of suspense.
Review: Another fine piece of work by the writers. It held my attention so much so that I didn't want to put the book down. One let down was the ending. It was over rather quickly, but then again, I suppose it had to end some time. I've already a list a friends who want to borrow it.

I highly recomment this book.
