I started reading The Bone Labyrinth, the new adventure novel by James Rollins, this past week and it is not half bad. It is one of a series of novels about Sigma Force, a special government team that investigates strange occurrences that could have dire consequences for the entire world. Rollins is one of a number of authors - including Steve Berry and Dan Brown - who write books with similar themes. For the most part, these are interesting and exciting novels, although Berry has been adding some of his right wing political opinions into the stories (states have the right to secede from the Union, Franklin Roosevelt was a monster, etc.), and Dan Brown has not written a good story since The Da Vinci Code. In any case, the locales are usually set across Europe and make for an exciting read. Plus, the situations are so similar to my current lifestyle, it is uncanny.
