London Underground

By: Chris Angus

Narrated by: John Lee

Beneath the streets of London lie many secrets. Subterranean rivers carve channels through darkened caverns. Hidden laboratories and government offices from WWII offer a maze of corridors and abandoned medical experiments. Lost in the depths of this underground are the contents of a looted Spanish galleon from the days of Henry VIII and a Nazi V-2 rocket that contains the most horrible secret of all. Carmen Kingsley, in charge of London projects for the British Museum, and Scotland Yard Inspector Sherwood Peets race to unravel the mysteries behind these contents before the great city succumbs to a frightening disease not seen since the age of the Henrys - the English Sweat. It all comes to a climax beneath London with the discovery of a horrifying species of genetically altered "super rats" that threaten to invade London and the British Isles.

Quite enjoyable

I love books that teach me as I am entertained. I had heard how complicated London's underground was, what with submerged rivers and WWII secrets- and this story gave tantalizing info along with an interesting story with good characters. I may go get a non-fiction book about the Underground now. Read this book., I enjoyed it.

Unexpected

This was a fun, although disjointed, science fiction/fantasy/horror story that I didn’t expect at all.
What we really now need is a follow up that tells us how they dealt with what was to come.
