""It's a lump of rock, Stella; nothing more. No stone is worth dying for."" "Except it's not just a lump of rock. It's a blue crystal skull made by the Maya to save the world from ruin, a sapphire so perfect, so powerful that for centuries men have killed to own or destroy it." "Ancient prophecies say that if the thirteen skulls already in existence are not reunited, the world will end on December 21, 2012. Cedric Owen, the skull's last Keeper, died so that it might keep its secret for the next four centuries. Now Stella Cody has found it, and someone has already tried to kill her. Like Owen, she's being hunted - but by whom?" "Desperate to unravel the mystery of the crystal skull, Stella must decode Cedric Owen's coded writings, sketches, and ciphers no scholar has been able to unravel. What she discovers is astounding: a shocking secret prophecy ... and the staggering puzzle of four terrifying creatures, thirteen precious stones, and what will happen if Cedric Owen's crystal skull falls into the wrong hands. But time is against Stella. She has only days - hours - left to uncover the only secret that may yet save the world." 12.21.12: The date is set. Time is running out. The end of the world starts now.

reviewed The Crystal Skull on September 15, 2010 The Crystal Skull
I really shouldn't have read a book that begins with a hair raising account of a caving expedition the week before I'm booked on a cave tour. But I did and I was captivated from the first page by this book. I constantly turned a few pages ahead to find out what would happen next and hated to put the book down to go to bed at night. It's an exciting read that put vivid images in my mind of the places, people and the action.
The book moves well from present day to the 16th century and captures the essence of both. Even though I knew that many of the places and people were fictional I could still believe in them as I read. I wasn't familiar with crystal skulls or Mayan legends and beliefs about the End Times so the premise of the book was totally new to me and I enjoyed learning about both.
I loved the mix of fantasy and history and would recommend this novel unreservedly.
