Summary
In a thrilling masterwork that will make you rethink your perceptions of life and death, James Rollins, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sigma Force series, takes you to the edge of medicine, genetics, and technology, revealing the next evolutionary leap forward: immortality.

Galilee, 1025. Infiltrating an ancient citadel, a Templar knight uncovers a holy treasure long hidden within the fortress’s labyrinth: the Bachal Isu — the staff of Jesus Christ — a priceless icon that holds a mysterious and terrifying power that promises to change humankind forever.

A millennium later, Somali pirates hijack a yacht off the coast of the Horn of Africa, kidnapping a young pregnant American woman. Commander Gray Pierce is enlisted for a covert rescue mission into the African jungle. The woman is no rich tourist: she’s Amanda Gant-Bennett, daughter of the U.S. president.

Suspicious that the kidnapping masks a far more nefarious plot, Gray must confront a shadowy cabal which has been manipulating events throughout history…and now challenges the current presidency.

For this unique mission, SIGMA is aided by a pair of special operatives with unique talents: former Army Ranger Captain Tucker Wayne and his military war dog, Kane. But what should be a straightforward rescue turns into a fiery ambush and a deadly act of betrayal, as Gray and his team discover that the hostage is a pawn in a shattering act of terrorism with dark repercussions? And the danger is only beginning…

Halfway around the world, a firebombing at a fertility clinic in South Carolina exposes a conspiracy that goes back centuries…a scheme that lies within our genetic code. With time against them, SIGMA must race to save an innocent unborn baby whose very existence raises questions about the nature of humanity, asking:

Could you live forever?

Would you live forever?

The narrator is great! He does a really good job of changing his voice to fit each character. This is a typical Rollins' book of adrenaline pumped action, improbable high tech gadgets, death defying moments and lots of fun. I also like the mix of serious characters (Seichan, Gray & Painter) with the more comic ones like Kolwalski and Monk. The ending is a bit of a plop rather than a more satisfying bang. However, it's a good entertainment series.

The amazing thing about this book is that the diverse characters are all out on their own part of the mission but you see the threads being weaved by each of them. Somehow you know they are going to entwine and so it builds the excitement as you listen to each chapter. I enjoyed this book immensely. Would highly recommend it!

Fantastic narrator. This was my first Sigma Force Novel and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. There are a lot of fairly in depth action "scenes" that didn't hold my attention well, but this is the same in movies. There's a car chase...ok, but I don't need or want it to last for 15 minutes, can we please move on with the story? Aside from that, it was a very good story and definitely worth a listen.
