Tides of Fire

A Thriller (Sigma Force Novels, Book 23)

By: James Rollins

Narrated by: Christian Baskous

In the latest riveting thriller from James Rollins, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sigma Force series, an international research station in the Coral Sea comes under siege during a geological disaster that triggers massive quakes, deadly tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. To stop the world from burning, it’s up to Sigma Force to uncover a secret buried at the heart of our planet.

The Titan Project—an international research station off the coast of Australia—discovers a thriving zone of life in an otherwise dead sea. The area teems with a strange bioluminescent coral that defies science, yet holds great promise for the future. But the loss of a military submarine in the area triggers a brutal attack and sets in motion a geological disaster that destabilizes an entire region.

Massive quakes, volcanic eruptions, and deadly tsunamis herald a greater cataclysm to come—for something is stirring miles under the ocean, a threat hidden for millennia.

As seas turn toxic and coastlines burn, can Sigma Force stop what has been let loose—especially as an old adversary returns, hunting them and thwarting their every move? For any hope of success, Commander Gray Pierce must search for a key buried in the past, hidden deep in Aboriginal mythology. But what Sigma could uncover is even more frightening—something that will shake the very foundations of humanity.

Amazing!

I binged this audio book! This was the first audio book I listened to from start to finish.

I am really looking forward to what comes next!

The authors sharing of what is real and what is fiction at the end!

James Rollins creates such a grand adventure that feels like it could be the next headline in our International papers!

Outstanding

Another excellent tale by an excellent writer, read by an excellent narrator. Probably one of the most immersive series out there.

Narration is jarring at times

Story was enjoyable but the narration was odd at times and transitions were very abrupt

An entertaining if fanciful book

Overall I was entertained by the book. However there were a lot of characters to keep track of and I found myself loosing track of who was who in the zoo. They did mention during the intro that there was a pdf to download with all the characters, and maps and stuff, but I wanted to listen to an action book at the gym, not embark on a research project. I would have preferred good character development on a smaller number of characters so I could keep track of it in my head rather than requiring a supplement. The narrator is really tough for me to listen to. I've listened to him on other James Rollins novels and I always cringe. At times, changes in cadence and inflection seem more random than purposeful, to the point of being distracting. Other times he's overly dramatic. And still other times, it sounds like he's reading to a group of 4 year-olds, trying to instill a sense of awe and wonder and failing.

Totally Addicted

I love the Sigma Force Series, I can hardly wait for the next book. I’m addicted to the fast pace and historical facts that are intertwined into the story!

Sigma Force is one of the best series out there

I started reading these years ago and hope to never stop. Always look forward to more Kowalski shenanigans.

suspenseful

I always love all of James Rollins Sigma Force Books. Actually, all his books. Can't wait foe the next book

Just when you thought it was ending...HELL NO!!!!

It took a 3 day weekend to go through this one because I couldn't stop listening! Full of the yummy science & history stuff followers of this series love. You will be wondering where the real vs fiction line is multiple times; yes, I stopped to Google a few things only to find my world expanding a bit more. Sigma is firing on all cylinders in this one, and the bad guys are gonna regret kicking anthill. There will definitely be a couple of re-reads until the next adventure begins. Definitely worth the credit and the next one.

Amazing!

This story is an incredible mix of action, history, imagination, science and technology!!!! Great read!!!!
