Good continuation of the series

Following the REPLY, this book brought the plot deeper by introducing The Mission, a mysterious group affecting the course of human history. Juggling both the currrent plot line of a biological threat and delving into history, the author keeps a tight grip on the story.

Excellent series

I've enjoyed all these books-- read them from Area 51 through The Sphinx this past weekend. Highly recommended

Intriguing book continues a good series

A friend gave me the first book in this series and I've since devoured the next two. Fast paced action, mixed with legends and modern myths make for a fun read.

Why the one-star ratings, readers?

Why? This book is the best in the AREA 51 series so far! At the end of the REPLY, was the mothership in space destroyed? No, it seems it has survived a nuclear strike(yes, this is ALIEN technology) and is still OUT THERE . . . meanwhile, in Bolivia, a plague virus is raging out of control. WHat is the cause, and what is the link with the fourteenth century Black Death outbreak? Were humans slaves to alien control then? Some amazing and alarmingly plausible theories are present in this story. Also the action element is well put across. You get the reverse-engineered alien spacecraft joining forces with the US military, you get a space combat mission(laser guns are old hat and out in this case, too infeasible - Doherty describes the MK-99 kinetic energy projectile gun which might be possible one day), and the startling discovery of controlled, enslaved humans engineering a terrifying plot. Read it and keep an open mind!

Surprisingly good.

I didn't expect much when I bought this book on the recommendation of a friend as I'm not a big science fiction fan, but this book was more a thriller with a wild premise than bug-eyed aliens running amok. The author seems to know what he's talking about as far as military operations go, which is unusual in most books I've read. Uusually some wanna-be writing about things they don't have a clue about, but Doherty knows his stuff. Good book.
