A phenomenon known as crustal displacement shifts the Earth's crust, repositioning continents and causing countless deaths. In the wake of the global catastrophe, the world struggles to take care of its displaced billions. But Antarctica, freshly thawed and blooming, has emerged as a new hope. Rather than wage a world war no nation can endure, the leading nations devise a competition, a race to the center of Antarctica, with the three victors dividing the continent. It is within this race that Mirabelle Whitney, one of the few surviving experts on the continent, grouped with an American special forces unit, finds herself. But the dangers awaiting the team are far worse than feared; beyond the sour history of a torn family, beyond the nefarious intentions of their human enemies, beyond the ancient creatures reborn through anhydrobiosis-there are the Nephilim. The world races to claim a new continent, only to find it already taken.

a great surpize

This is one book you can not put down. It is fast paced and a great read. I had to order the rest of his books just to see if he will be a great writer as I believe he will be.


Engaging

Very well written and quite enjoyable. The combination of fact and fantasy, science and science fiction, make for a delightful page-turner. I look forward to reading more from Jeremy and am already planning my next purchases!


Explosive, Spine Tingling Adventure

Jeremy Robinson has done it again with his new, explosive action/adventure novel that will keep you turning pages well into the night. Antarktos Rising plunges the modern world into the savage, ancient earth of eons past. Through a series of cataclysmic events, the continent of Antarctica is transformed into an apparent paradise while most of the inhabited earth is destroyed through a massive freeze. In order to survive, the nations of the earth race to claim the formerly frozen Antarctica as their new home. However, as teams from the various countries race to the center of the now tropical Antarctica, they find that the land is not the only thing thawed from the eons of deep freeze--so were some of the indigenous species that once roamed and ruled the continent. The journey to the center of Antarctica--now known by its ancient name of Antarktos--is the least of mankind's goals. Once they start, they must survive some of the most deadly obstacles ever faced. Jeremy Robinson takes you on their journey step-by-step through the spine tingling adventure with each turn of the page, making you wonder how the team can get out of their current danger. He scarcely gives you time to catch your breath before the team encounters a new, more deadly danger. If you have a list of books to read this summer, put Antarktos Rising at the top today.

good read but nothing thrilling

I enjoyed reading this book, but found the whole storyline a bit implausible. How can a flood/freeze event kill off half a continent and yet leave one person alive? Having said that, the story is kind of a fun story and contains a lot of "what ifs" which make it an interesting read. The story doesn't dig too deeply and doesn't give a lot of details, which makes for a quick read.
