The Devil Colony by James Paul Czajkowski aka James Clemens aka James Rollins

Rating: WARTY!

"After a grisly archaeological discovery, Sigma Force leader Painter Crowe" Painter Crowe? Seriously? That's your character's name? "...risks everything to expose a shadowy cabal that has manipulated the US for centuries." Yeah right. For centuries, and gone completely undetected and unsuspected. Barf.

Amazonia by James Rollins

Rating: WARTY!

"Five years after a US Special Forces agent entered the Amazon jungle," wait, why are the US special forces once again invading a foreign land? Oh well, "with one arm, he emerges - with both arms intact" Wait, wait a minute! Why is there a special forces guy going into the field and he has only one arm? Aren’t even regular soldiers invalided out after a sacrifice like that? I can't imagine one being in the special forces like that. This story just sounds off from the off. Yawn.

The Judas Strain by James Rollins

Rating: WARTY!

"When an extinction-level virus threatens humanity, it's up to Sigma Force commander Gray Pierce to stop the catastrophe in its tracks - and the key to the cure lies in the legendary travels of Marco Polo" Absolutely! That commander is going to throw everything he has at the virus. Tanks, AA missiles, rockets, grenades. He's going to surround it and bomb it back to the stone age, and wipe it from the face of the Earth. Meanwhile the medical people will cower in terror. Any novel with a ridiculous title like this (ripping off Michael Crichton to boot) should be avoided like the plague.
