Publisher Description

In this heart-stopping novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author James Rollins, an elite team of ex-Special Forces soldiers turned scientific specialists must uncover a secret society and the treasure that could destroy the world.

When a group of parishioners are burned to death in a German cathedral, the U.S. sends in the Sigma force. The tragedy is more than a case of arson; someone has stolen the priceless treasure stored in the cathedral’s golden reliquary: the bones of the Biblical Magi, the legendary Three Kings.

Commander Logan Pierce, new to Sigma, will lead a team on the hunt for the Royal Dragon Court, a clandestine aristocratic fraternity of alchemists dating back to the Middle Ages, who seek to establish a New World Order using the mystical bones. The Sigma team will follow a labyrinth of clues leading from Europe’s gothic cathedrals, through the remnants of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, to a mystical place where science and religion will unite to unleash a threat not seen since the beginning of time itself.

The reader is the problem

It seems the writing is good, but the reader is annoying. He seems determined to seethe or spike out an “S” during all Ss, as one would expect, but also accents an S for most Ts, Ds, Js, and CHs. I checked my car stereo for some maladjusssstment, but sthere wasss none. I figured that sssome readersss stake a schapter or stwo to get their sssea legsss, ssso I schecked the reading in the scenter and near the ensd of the book—it was the sssame. It’s not a lisp; is a style of speaking that I found annoying. I’m a little pisssed at the wassstesd money. Don’t buy this unless you love sssteam.
