A new disease is ravaging both people and wildlife in Africa. When a United Nations relief team discovers the disease turning both flora and fauna into life-threatening dangers, the Sigma team is alerted and heads into the jungle to locate the source, alleged to be the legendary Kingdom of Bones. Their goal is to stop the epidemic. The Kingdom of Bones is deep inside the jungle and avoided by locals, but the team perseveres to explore the site and search for a cure to this new, strange ailment. With plants, animals, and other humans all aligned against the group, they manage to infiltrate some of the deepest, darkest corners of the Congo, all the while under attack on several fronts, to look for answers. With the voice of narrator Christian Baskous, the characters come to life.
VERDICT Readers who enjoy Michael Crichton’s books and fans of Rollins’s (The Last Odyssey) previous work will want to tackle this new entry in the “Sigma Force” series, which can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel.
