Sigma Force is a secret, blackest of the black ops organization of the United States. They investigate odd and unusual events that potentially may jeopardize the USA and world stability. In The Doomsday Key, Sigma head Painter Crowe, top agent Gray Pierce, and his team are on the trail of a conspiracy to control global population through the food supply. Seemingly unconnected events are puzzle pieces sending his team on a race to find the antidote to a horrific and ancient wasting disease about to be unleashed. In this adventure Gray's former lover Rachel, Guild operative/mole Seichan, Monk, Kowalski and a new agent race to beat the Guild to the antidote.
From the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, to an island off the coast of Wales, peat bogs in England and an ancient monastery in France, the book is a travel guide of places I want to visit. The author's descriptions alone are worth the reading, and the fact that it's part of a well-constructed mystery is all the better.
But what really holds these stories together and creates the magic are the characters. There is a history with each character, a three-dimensional background of everyday life, relationships, foibles and quirks (hello, Kowalski!!) that make them seem real and let the reader care about what is happening. I feel like I know them, and each adventure adds to that for me.
A few more clues to the mysterious and seemingly omniscient Guild are given here, and Seichan has a larger role. More insights into her past are given, and she is less the assassin and more the human agent here than in previous novels. The new guy, Creed, is an interesting addition and a good counterpoint for Monk, back on active duty following a lengthy recovery. It was fun to see Monk, a seasoned agent compared to Creed, play the role of senior agent/teacher. I can't give away much more without spoiling the plot, but the book was excellent.
I am a huge fan of Rollins - he is probably my favorite thriller writer, along with Steve Berry (Cotton Malone series) and Lee Child (Jack Reacher series). He seamlessly blends fact, history, legend, technology and fiction into a cohesive, exciting adventure. And at the end he clarifies what is real and what is made up - it's absolutely fascinating how much of his books are real.
Now on to The Devil Colony (Sigma Force #7), so I will be caught up before Deep Fathom (a stand-alone novel) is released in March 2012!(less)

I liked this book. I'm not a big reader of the cop/special forces/suspense/etc. genre, so I'm not sure how typical this book is, but for me, it had the adventure/quest component, the symbology, and history that I liked in Da Vinci Code, and even threw in a reference to Merlin for kicks.

A special forces team, recovering from a major set-back, split up to figure out why bad guys are killing people and branding them with a symbol known for ecological groups. There's a lot of explanation ...more

The plotline revisited some of my favorite characters, including the mysterious Seichan. I was hoping for a resolution of the Grey/Seichan romance, but I will warn any potential readers that the resolution is a bit of a grey area (drum riff).

The plotline of this entry focuses on an influential owner of a bioengineering company who has plans to "save" the world through controversial means as well as following along with Grey & company as they try to find a long lost "Doomsday Key" that is very much desired by Sigma's rival group the Guild. Grey has more than one thing on his mind as he has to figure out the clues as well as figure out his relationship dynamics with his previous lover Rachel as well as the enigmatic Seichan. (Well, first he has to figure out whether or not he can TRUST Seichan.)

Overall I enjoyed the book but I will admit that there were one or two points that seemed to be a bit of a lull. Mostly the "in between" scenes that were necessary to move the plot to the next part. I enjoyed learning more about Seichan but I found the whole Grey/Rachel/Seichan dynamics to be a little wearing at times & I didn't really feel any romantic sparks between Grey & Rachel in this book. (Then again, that may have been the author's intent for the relationship to be more of a desperation thing than a romance thing.) I did particularly enjoy Kowalski in this book. He's a meathead & a grunt, but he's great comic relief. It was a relief to have some plot movement with the Guild plot arc since that's something that has been dragged out for a while now. There is a bit of an ambiguous ending of sorts, but it's entertaining to think of the possibilities that could open up in the future. In the end though, this just wasn't Rollins' strongest novel in the Sigma series. He's written far better than this. It's not enough to put me off the series, but it's enough to make me admit that this will disappoint some readers.

Now I do have to put a disclaimer down. If you have never read any of the Sigma novels in the past, this is not the book to start with. While the bigger part of the plot is somewhat self contained, the overlying plot arcs & character dynamics will more than likely befuddle anyone who has no knowledge of anything that's happened before. The book calls on a lot of previous story arcs in this book.(less)

James Rollins action/adventure thriller novels are always far fetched, though the scientific details always have a basis in fact. This time, in The Doomsday Key, the scientific storyline delves into the areas of genetically modified foods, fungal viruses and super enzymes. The regular cast of characters are there, Gray, Monk, Painter, etc. with the addition of Rachel and Seichan in a new twist. I'm always very keen on the scientific elements and arcane bits of knowledge, and in this, the novel ...more

I've only read a small number of James Rollins' books; but, from my understanding, THE DOOMSDAY KEY is exactly what fans of his will expect and love. It has an easy to read and enjoyable plot involving multiple murders, biotechnology, chemical agents, history, and lore. THE DOOMSDAY KEY is truly an adventure, taking readers from Africa to locations all over Europe, to the Arctic.

I am not familiar with the characters, but I believe they have made appearances in previous Rollins books. Rollins excels in painting these people in precarious situations with real responses. They are believable and their actions are reasonable (for the most part). There were a couple of moments when I was truly impressed with their thought processes, and Rollins did a nice job of showing the internal moral struggles during these moments.

What else is there? Tons and tons of action. The only times when there is no action is when the characters are learning about the history of the artifact they seek, thus having dialogues and research sessions to fill themselves (and the reader) in on what they are trying to achieve. The action is almost over the top, and at times recklessly unbelievable. Rollins has no shame in destroying national monuments and tearing down anything and everything. This caviler attitude almost turned me off because there is no follow up on events that would seem impossible to get away with, and little discussion of the ramifications of such actions. However, it is a story, and these events were fun to read and created an enjoyable experience.

The plot revolving around the Doomsday Key and the Doomsday Book was interesting and moderately well researched, providing the lore with some semblance of believability. Although these artifacts were interesting, it was not breathtaking and "grab you by the throat." For some, the story could be a little too much action and not enough substance; but like any summer action movie: sometimes that is what we prefer.

Overall, THE DOOMSDAY KEY is a good summer read. If you are looking for a book that is easy to read, fast paced, doesn't involve a lot of thinking, and filled with action, I recommend picking it up. If you are looking for something with a little more substance or something with "a little more to it," you might consider passing on THE DOOMSDAY KEY.

Good reading,

It's really tough for me to write about books that are out of my comfort zone. I'm not a huge fan of adventure/action thriller type books, and I rarely read them. I'm much more likely to read a mystery, biography, history, work of literary fiction, or to indulge in the guilty pleasure of a horror novel or two here and there. But the fact is, there are only a few authors in the rockem-sockem world of adventure thrillers whose works I will read, and James Rollins is one of them.

There is never a dull moment in this latest installment of the Sigma Force series. The action ranges from Africa to Rome, Norway, the British Isles and France and never lets up. It is another "ripping good yarn" for fans of Rollins and his superhero-like team of good guys, Sigma Force.

brief summary, no spoilers
Jason Gorman, the son of a US Senator, is in Africa working on the experimental farm project sponsored by his father. On the farm were fields of genetically-modified corn, and the experiment was successful. But out of nowhere, the Red Cross camp where he is staying is attacked and Jason is killed, but not before firing off an email to his father letting him know what's happening. Attached to that email -- research files. Because of the death of the senator's son, Sigma Force gets involved. But of course, there's always more... the death of a priest, an attack on Rachel's uncle in Rome, the death of a geneticist at Princeton...and everywhere, the same strange sign is branded into the victims. As Sigma uncovers each individual layer of the mystery of who is behind all of this and why, more mysteries pop up, eventually leading the team to look for their answers not in the present, but back in time to the Britain of the Domesday Book and beyond. There are twists and turns everywhere, and the action is nonstop.

Rollins takes known fact, some speculative/conspiracy theory and a lot of science and weaves it into his story. I most enjoyed the historical background of the book; beyond that, the book is high-level action and very fast paced, a cross between Indiana Jones movies, modern conspiracy fiction and a spy novel complete with a shadowy evil organization plotting against the good guys. This book, like the rest of the Sigma Force books, are fun escape reads, the kind where you have to sort of suspend your disbelief for the few hours it takes to get through it. I think that the reader is better served by starting with book one and making your way through the series, because there are parts where you'll want to know what came before.

I'm much more of a plot or character person than a reader of adventure/action fiction, so at times the shootouts, killings, bombings and seemed a bit overwhelming. Then again, that's what action/adventure readers look for with these books. I'd recommend it to those type of readers, and to people wondering if they should continue in the series. Overall -- just a bit of fun for a few hours, so sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. Don't take it too seriously ...it's just fun. I don't read many of these types of books, but I can always depend on Rollins when I need some escape time. If he keeps writing them, I'll keep reading them. (less)

This case was interesting but not the best of the author. At least I think the others were written in a more appellative way.

On the one hand, there is a lot of obvious literary trickery going on--I believe Rollins keeps a deus ex machina handbook in his pocket while writing--and things that any reasonable reader knows shouldn't happen, happens.

On the other hand Rollins' books are a whole lot of fun; books that I really, really enjoy--I've read four of them, after all--and Rollins has a magnificent imagination and sense of the grandiose. I mean that in a good way.

Basically, Rollins' books are meant to be as much fun as a box full of kittens (soft and cuddly on the outside, full of claws and teeth on the inside--so mostly tons o' fun, but with inherent danger), and to this end he succeeds remarkably well. On the other hand his plots and action feel contrived, and it's hard for me to seriously contemplate giving the books more than three stars, and that's probably being generous.

None the less, three stars it is, because the characters, settings and action are so much fun, that rating his book anything less would be, in my opinion, criminal.

With this type of story the reader is, I think obviously, supposed to suspend disbelief, because if the reader does not suspend disbelief the reader will surely poke their eyes out with a red-hot poker before starting the third chapter. I don't mean to be harsh by saying that, because, as mentioned, I enjoy his adventures, but some of the devices and amazing coincidences challenge even my maximum-security-lock-down suspension of disbelief.

Rollins melds archaeology with science and political intrigue to create massive, globe trotting adventure stories. His stories--at least the ones I've read--take place in historical settings of world heritage value, and Rollins shows no apparent remorse at blowing them--the ancient, culturally valuable sites--to smithereens. Although I wouldn't want to see the destruction that Rollins rains down upon his settings happen in real life, it always brings a smile to my face to see him willing to sacrifice these monuments, even if it is only fictionally, to the greater cause of hard-core fictional intrigue.

The characters aren't quite three-dimensional, but are absolutely beyond typical two-dimensional characters. Of course I've had four books to get to know these characters, and that probably helps in my estimation of their depth, but, much like an ongoing, episodic television drama, more and more of the characters personal lives are being revealed. By now, I would be sincerely saddened if any of the main characters were to meet their demise, although I suspect that sooner than later Rollins will knock-off one of the on-going secondary characters. That's because I do believe that Rollins is a conscientious writer, and understands that death, even of a beloved character, is sometimes what a series needs.

So, yes, I do recommend Rollins' Sigma series of books to those who want an enjoyable, fun adventure, a quick read, interesting characters, archaeological mysteries, puzzles to be solved, explosions and gun play, back-stabbings, and, plain and simply, those who want a grand old time of classic globe-trotting adventure. In fact I strongly recommend the Sigma series.

For those who can't suspend their disbelief enough to stomach groan-inducing coincidences and some rather obvious plot twists, you should probably stay away.
