Finally finished this; it took a while not because it was boring but because my fave authors came out with their latest and I always put them first。 Anyways…The good thing about Bones was that there was a ton of incredibly detailed info about viruses。 The bad thing was there was a ton of incredibly detailed info about viruses。 I found myself having to Google some of the terms because I had no earthly idea what was being described。 That’s just my complaint。 The book was good; in fact it deserves Finally finished this; it took a while not because it was boring but because my fave authors came out with their latest and I always put them first。 Anyways…The good thing about Bones was that there was a ton of incredibly detailed info about viruses。 The bad thing was there was a ton of incredibly detailed info about viruses。 I found myself having to Google some of the terms because I had no earthly idea what was being described。 That’s just my complaint。 The book was good; in fact it deserves all of 4 stars。 The fact I had to look up a bunch of info was an annoyance only。 So why not 5 stars？ Well I haven’t read too many Sigma Force books so I don’t have a lot to compare but the ending of the one was kinda…。meh。 It wasn’t as earth shattering as I was thinking it was going to be; it was even a slight let down。 And the preponderance of climate change messaging in recent books drives me up the dang wall。 I get enough of that crap from the news （yes I believe it occurs but do not believe man influences it as much as we are led to think）。 I’ll read more Sigma Force novels if。 I thing else because I’d like to read more about the characters…I just hope other entries in the series don’t try so hard to be preachy 。。。more

This was worth waiting for！ Loved James Rollins’ new Sigma Force novel and all of the characters he brought together in the book。 It had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end。 This is a must read！

I highly recommend this book。 It’s action packed and fast paced。 The whole series is a good one。

I have enjoyed James Rollins books for years now， and this one is no different。 The characters we know and love are here。 The high adventure， the science， and the travel is here。 Even though this one is number 16， fans of adventure novels unfamiliar with the series can read this mostly self contained story and not be lost。 I received my copy for free this time through a Goodreads giveaway， which is greatly appreciated！

A little too brutal for my taste， unable to finish the book。

I received an advanced copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway。 I was so excited to get it， and I wasn't disappointed。 The timely novel follows the advent of a new virus that first appears in the Congo in Africa。 The virus is somewhat unique in that it affects different species in different ways。 In certain animals， such as ants， bats， and baboons， it manifests in angry， aggressive behavior while in humans， it causes depression and stupor， seeming to numb or paralyze parts of the body。The nove I received an advanced copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway。 I was so excited to get it， and I wasn't disappointed。 The timely novel follows the advent of a new virus that first appears in the Congo in Africa。 The virus is somewhat unique in that it affects different species in different ways。 In certain animals， such as ants， bats， and baboons， it manifests in angry， aggressive behavior while in humans， it causes depression and stupor， seeming to numb or paralyze parts of the body。The novel also travels back and forth in time to give the reader glimpses of the history of the Congo， including historical figures， as well as mythical figures， from the Congo's past。Once again， Painter， Gray， Monk， and Kowalski become involved in the search for the origin of the virus and a possible cure。 They are joined by veterinarian/virologist Frank Whitaker， doctors Jameson and Charlotte， and rejoined by Captain Tucker Wayne and his partner/warrior dog Kane。 The group must battle evil billionaires out to gain glory for themselves by experimenting on victims of the virus in hopes of getting credit for finding a cure。 The group also must battle Mother Nature herself in an effort to find answers to their questions。 Some of the terminology/explanation of viruses gets a bit technical， and there is a great deal of description of the jungle itself， but the novel is full of action and suspense。 The ride is well worth your time。 。。。more

This book had non-stop action and good characterization。 The plot is excellent。 Several people brave dangers both human and otherwise to save the world from a deadly virus。

I won a copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway。 When I read the intro and Rollins’s own acknowledgment of hesitation to tackle a book about a virus in these times， I agreed， but decided to forge ahead and give the book a chance。 I’m glad I did！ It was a slow start for me， but finally picked up speed as I kept reading， got more into it， and couldn’t put it down。 I’ve read all the books in this series so far， so I’m obviously a fan and probably biased for this book before I even started it。 All I won a copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway。 When I read the intro and Rollins’s own acknowledgment of hesitation to tackle a book about a virus in these times， I agreed， but decided to forge ahead and give the book a chance。 I’m glad I did！ It was a slow start for me， but finally picked up speed as I kept reading， got more into it， and couldn’t put it down。 I’ve read all the books in this series so far， so I’m obviously a fan and probably biased for this book before I even started it。 All that to say， if you’re a fan of this series， come along for the latest adventure！ 。。。more

Thank you Goodreads for this ARC copy。This is the second book in the Sigma Force series I've read。 I really liked the first one The Bone Labyrinth， this one not quite as much。 I liked it but I found I wasn't as invested in the characters， what they were doing and how the scenario played out as I was in the previous book。 Also， as some other reviewers have noted， it felt more like SiFi/Fantasy than science based thriller。 I will definitely read more of Rollins' books but this one only rated four Thank you Goodreads for this ARC copy。This is the second book in the Sigma Force series I've read。 I really liked the first one The Bone Labyrinth， this one not quite as much。 I liked it but I found I wasn't as invested in the characters， what they were doing and how the scenario played out as I was in the previous book。 Also， as some other reviewers have noted， it felt more like SiFi/Fantasy than science based thriller。 I will definitely read more of Rollins' books but this one only rated four stars from me。 。。。more

At times a bit far-fetched， Kingdom of Bones is an edge-of-your-seat thriller！The book takes place in the Congo， which is mostly a thick jungle full of bugs and snakes and many other deadly things I don't like to think about。 And Rollins makes the setting come alive。 Then there are the genetically altered beasts which turn the usually annoying ants into deadly virus-carrying little animals。 And there are many other animals that have changed， which makes this whole story even more creepy。I kept w At times a bit far-fetched， Kingdom of Bones is an edge-of-your-seat thriller！The book takes place in the Congo， which is mostly a thick jungle full of bugs and snakes and many other deadly things I don't like to think about。 And Rollins makes the setting come alive。 Then there are the genetically altered beasts which turn the usually annoying ants into deadly virus-carrying little animals。 And there are many other animals that have changed， which makes this whole story even more creepy。I kept wanting to say， "No！ Turn back！ You can't keep going under these conditions！" But of course， they do keep going。 After all， the fate of the world is in their hands。 And not only the virus and the jungle， but there is also a bad guy who is using everything he has to stop them。 And he has a lot to use。Kingdom of Bones is the 22nd book in the Sigma Force series， and I think I may have read one other。 It didn't matter for the story， even though I'm sure there are a lot of backstories I don't know。 So， yeah， this one is about a deadly virus。 Rollins discusses his concerns about publishing this book in the introduction。 It does cause you to stop and think about what we as humans may be doing to cause these pandemics。 But it is also a very entertaining romp， with characters that at least some people are familiar with。 And I loved the technology and weaponry that is used。 And the dog， of course。 If you can handle the subject matter， Kindom of Bones is worth it。 。。。more
