Review ebook The Ice Limit
Bring your Dramamine for an action packed adventure on a tanker headed for The Ice Limit.
By now, if you have been following my reviews, you know that I think Preston and Child can do no wrong. Well, after reading this, I stand by my conviction. I did this book on audio and the last two days on my commute to and from work I was holding my breath due to the suspense (not a wise thing to do when operating a vehicle!)
From page one this book had all the elements of a great story. A mysterious meteor Bring your Dramamine for an action packed adventure on a tanker headed for The Ice Limit.

From page one this book had all the elements of a great story. A mysterious meteor needs to be found and recovered.
A wealthy collector of rare artifacts and scientific discoveries hires an agency – with a 100% success rate – to find it.
But, not only does the meteor present challenges, they must face the evil comandante of a Chilean destroyer along the way.
Again – action, mystery, suspense, cool technology, extreme climates, and peril at every turn. If all those things interest you, you should probably be headed to The Ice Limit right now.
Oh, and (view spoiler)[there is a cliffhanger! I was not expecting this book to have one (not that you should expect it – kind of defeats the purpose) but I have always thought this was a complete stand alone with only a little overflow into the Pendergast series. I guess their recent book, Beyond the Ice Limit, really is a sequel. (hide spoiler)]
