The 6th Extinction

A Sigma Force Novel

By: James Rollins

Narrated by: Christian Baskous

In a masterful epic of timeless mystery and ripped-from-the-headlines scientific intrigue, James Rollins, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sigma Force series, takes mankind to its endpoint, to a fate written in rock and ice in an event known as The Sixth Extinction

A remote military research station sends out a frantic distress call, ending with a chilling final command: Kill us all! Personnel from the neighboring base rush in to discover everyone already dead-and not just the scientists, but every living thing for fifty square miles is annihilated: every animal, plant, and insect, even bacteria.

The land is entirely sterile-and the blight is spreading.

To halt the inevitable, Commander Gray Pierce and Sigma must unravel a threat that rises out of the distant past, to a time when Antarctica was green and all life on Earth balanced upon the blade of a knife. Following clues from an ancient map rescued from the lost Library of Alexandria, Sigma will discover the truth about an ancient continent, about a new form of death buried under miles of ice.

From millennia-old secrets out of the frozen past to mysteries buried deep in the darkest jungles of today, Sigma will face its greatest challenge to date: stopping the coming extinction of mankind.

But is it already too late?

I would have payed full price for the bone labyrinth, then I saw that Baskous will be the narrator so that pretty much ruins the book all together!!!!!!

this guy should not read out loud

Any additional comments?

This was a good book. The narrator was not a good choice. Try Scott Brick.

Great book! Love the mix of history and science.

Great book! Love the mix of history and science. The sigma force novels have all been fantastic.

Does anybody look at the reviews other than the listeners ?

Reviews have been quite blunt about the narrator. Obviously the publisher, author, and producer do not read the reviews
