It took just under 10 days to mop up this new addition to my compendium of books. I used to love reading when I was young, then I found the internet in 1997. But, every so often, my adiences sputters up, and I wind up acquiring a book. This latest book is called Map of Bones - James Rollins.

James Rollins is a hybrid of Dan Brown and Tom Clancy. I know everyone’s been bestriding Dan Brown’s bandwagon, but James Rollins takes a slenderly contrastive overture. He indites about THE 3 WISEMEN, a biblical story about how they were guided by the star of David, towards Jesus’s crib (or were they?). 

Bombs, bloodbath and decimation equilibrizes the remainder of the book. Apparently THE 3 WISEMEN were concealing a so-called GOLD powder back then, where it can change state to a superconductor, that conjures gravitational attraction and such. Yes, told you it’s fiction. But the marrow of it is, James Rollins didn’t disenchant with the flux of the story. It was enamouring, though he peppered the story with too much supererogatory information, which can leave you in a state of muddiness.

It hasn’t been the same since Dan Brown came into my life. Books just cannot compare to ANGELS & DEMONS (my favourite Dan Brown book), THE DA VINCI CODE and DECEPTION POINT. I bought a book called RULE OF FOUR last year - despised it - it was shockingly atrocious.

Bottomline, if you’re looking for an adventure fiction relating to the VATICAN, get this book. Click on the right image for a different view of “bones”. LOL!

  1. i read Rule of Four too. had to force myself to get through it. really didn’t enjoy that book. i don’t know how anyone could’ve compared it to dan brown’s books =/

  2. Hey, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment about Map of Bones. Like you, I used to read a ton, but the internet and TV suck most of my time when I’m not working. Still, now that summer is here, I do read more. I’m currently half way through the thriller Icon by Neil Olson. I should -hopefully - have it done this weekend and post a review. Stop by again.
