Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Area 51
Review: The book Area 51 by Robert Doherty is a truley excellent book it is about Lessa Duncan the presdintial adviser for Area 51, Dr von seect the only orignal member of the Majic 12 or the cometty for area 51, Mike Turoctee the brawn of these people he is from special forces, and last but not least kelly the frelance reporter. This is a truley excellent book because the author dose an excellent job of keeping the whole entire book exciting. Also the author dose a good job of keeping your attention because if you stop paying attention to what you are reading than you will be lost. Also the book has a very faast pase for example if you space out while you are reading than you will miss alot. This novle also makes you think and make predictions because this book is so exciting and the charicters arent as predictable as the other si-fi charicters in all other books.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Area 51
Review: Fun and easy read. I like how he ties so many wonders of the world together. I have read two in the series and can't wait to read the 3rd.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's all true...
Review: The President's science advisor wants to know what is going on in Area 51. She enlists the aid of a marine and then the slurm hits the fan.

Fast-paced adventure mas our main characters uncovering the secrets hidden at Area 51 while trying to avoid being killed.

Excellent suspense, good characters, and a believable plot make this one of the best "Area 51" novels to come along. A nice companion to the author's THE ROCK, which is seemingly composed of every science fiction cliche except Area 51/Roswell.

Reader should beware that this is the first of a seven-book series and that the others are not quite the same style.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Good Story, but Characters needed Development
Review: I very much enjoyed the read and found myself immersed in the story, but frankly I, like others, found the character development woefully lacking. There is no personality difference between Turcotte, Kelly, Nabinger, Lisa or Von Seeckt; Doherty could have rotated their identities and it wouldn't be noticable.

Another minor detraction was that some of the visuals weren't quite right. For example, as Turcotte and Von Seeckt escape from the base hospital, Turcotte KO's a guard with a gun butt to back of the head; shortly after, the guard is in pursuit, but hampered by blood in his eyes and can only fire his gun wildly all about. ...

Other than a few such lapses which should have been proof-read out, it's an absorbing book, and I'll continue the series.
