The Seventh Plague


I picked up a copy of the Seventh Plague by James Rollins a few weeks ago, after being on a waiting list at the Denver Public Library for several months, but was in the middle of a Daniel Silva novel and couldn't start reading it right away.  When I finally did start reading it, I didn't have much time left, and it is now overdue. Back in medieval times, if you borrowed a book and didn't return it on time, the penalty was eternal damnation.  At the Denver Public library it is just a small monetary amount, which I think is a better system. In any case, the Seventh plague is a fairly decent adventure novel / mystery.  If you have read James Rollins before, the story line is much like his previous books, and you will enjoy it.  It involves an ancient plague that returns to the world and the search for a cure, leading the "Sigma Team" to England, Africa, and the Arctic Circle.  One thing I did learn - it is chilly up there.
