Reliquary (Pendergast, Book 2) 183 reviews Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
Tor Books, 1998
Another interesting Preston/Child book
+ Reliquary + Into the Deep ...
I agree with most people that this book did not live up to Relic, but it is still a great story. It reads well as an independent book and the setting is very interesting below NYC. I think that it took a little bit too long to really get going, but when it did it was really strong.

Grand Central Publishing, 2003
A worthy, captivating, thrilling ride and read.
+ Entertaining, but characters are a little flat and ending is a bit of a let down + In truth it's Horror!
This is the best book from the duo author that I've read thus far (again, I don't read in order of the published date). It kept me captivated, interested and in tune for the duration of the read and beyond. The air of mystery by was perfectly described through the ornate details. This book ...
