Historia
Hidden deep beneath Manhattan lies a warren of tunnels, sewers, and galleries, mostly forgotten by those who walk the streets above. There lies the ultimate secret of the Museum Beast. When two grotesquely deformed skeletons are found deep in the mud off the Manhattan shoreline, museum curator Margo Green is called in to aid the investigation.

So So Read
Revisado: 05-28-15
Would you listen to Reliquary again? Why?
No, got the full story now
Would you be willing to try another book from Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child ? Why or why not?
Probably not. Characters are shallow. Need better fact checking, vitamin D deficiency causes rickets, not scurvy, as we are told many times.
What does Dick Hill bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Adds dimension to the reading process
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No

Historia
Holland and Niles Perry are identical thirteen-year-old twins. They are close, close enough, almost, to read each other's thoughts, but they couldn't be more different. Holland is bold and mischievous, a bad influence, while Niles is kind and eager to please, the sort of boy who makes parents proud. The Perrys live in the bucolic New England town their family settled centuries ago, and as it happens, the extended clan has gathered at its ancestral farm this summer to mourn the death of the twins' father in a most unfortunate accident.

Historia
Carl Hiaasen takes us deep in the Everglades with an eccentric eco-avenger, a ticked-off panther, and two kids on a mission to find their missing teacher. Florida - where the animals are wild and the people are wilder! Bunny Starch, the most feared biology teacher ever, is missing. She disappeared after a school field trip to Black Vine Swamp. And, to be honest, the kids in her class are relieved. But when the principal tries to tell the students that Mrs. Starch has been called away on a "family emergency", Nick and Marta just don't buy it.

Not at his best
Revisado: 06-04-10
This is Carl Hiaasen as if written by a computer. All the pieces are there but the life isn't. It reads like any of his other books except that all the characters names are different. So I got no continuity with his other books, but I felt like I had read this story several times in the past.
While not a fan of Ed Asner, I did appreciate his work on this book. Was the best part of the deal.
