Review # 1 was written on 2018-06-29 00:00:00 Jean Claude Fortier 4 stars - English paperback - 🦋🦋🦋🦋 Quote from the book : Mia knew it was. It was a specialization sha had flirted with, but she'd ultimatly veerded off into another direction, knowing anti-aging research was the embarrassing relative no one wanted to talk about. Biogerontology - the sciencefiction of aging - had been having a tough time sence, well, the Jurassic era. 🦋🦋🦋🦋 Two storylines, two timelines, and a subject that always intregues. Second time around I understood more about the subject and was less trown over by the thriller effect of the book.🌷🌷🌷

Review # 2 was written on 2008-03-23 00:00:00 Yachika Jackson Well, well, well... where to start.... should I even bother?... most of it has been said before. The plot - not the most original... but at least it was not quasi-religous....it was all reasonably straightforward with little in the way of twists and turns. The characters - all pretty boring... only one surprise revelation, but I guess we all worked out who Kirkwood was 200 pages before the great reveal anyway... all of the others were dull... Evelyn [too intellectual to think straight], Mia [daughter/heroine - how could a novice dodge so many bullets?]...Corben [goody gone bad - yawn!].... Hakeem [baddy gone mental - foll on Menegele]... Kirkwood [come up trumps in the end - yawn bloody yawn]...Only the adventures of Sebastian held any real intrigue, enjoyment and surprise. The writing style - Kim [Decemeber 2007] was correct, the style of writing is weird... it is as if the writer wrote the book and then looked back on it and thought "ooh... there's not enough words... and it's sort of like something a 15 year old would write"... I reckon he then got out a big dictionary and thesaurus and put in loads of "grown up/big" words that he didn't really inderstand... but thought they sounded sort of cool and all experienced and worldly.. crap more like! It really does not enhance the book at all. Overall... the book is worth 2.5 stars... not 3 as I would have given it, so i have only awarded it 2 stars... Do better next time Raymond... I am bitterly disappointed [and so will my friends be when I lend them this copy - bugger-off if you think any other of us should waste more cash on this]. I was so looking forward to reading this after The Last Templar... but this is not in the same league.
