    About this ebook

    #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts presents a collection that includes all three novels in her epic Circle Trilogy.

    As a storm rages, a tale begins of a powerful vampire’s lust for destruction—and of the circle of six charged by a goddess to stop her...

    MORRIGAN'S CROSS

    At the goddess Morrigan’s charge, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith must gather five others to form a ring of power strong enough to overcome Lilith. And it is in this circle, hundreds of years in the future, where Hoyt will learn how strong his spirit—and his heart—have become...

    DANCE OF THE GODS

    While demon hunter Blair Murphy has always worked alone, she finds herself drawn to Larkin, a man of many shapes. To prepare for their fight against Lilith, the circle of six travels through time to Larkin’s world, where Blair must decide if she can risk everything for a love that can never be...

    VALLEY OF SILENCE

    As queen of Geall, scholarly Moira must prepare her subjects to battle against the vampire who killed her own mother. Still, there is one vampire to whom she would trust her soul. But how can Cian truly love a woman whose life is sure to end—if not by Lilith’s hand, then by the curse of time?

      The book starts off with a promising premise of a doctor worrying about his ethically horrifying invention in a darker, deserted part of Africa. Parallel to it, the two famous pathologists - Jack Stapleton and Laurie Montgomery - work on an intriguing, but almost clueless murder of a mobster. These two parallel story lines unfold neatly, intertwining the characters in the process.

      Though the investigation of the two pathologists was awesome, it also faltered the pace of the story. Cook stuffed an excruciating amount of failed attempts at finding clues to further the investigation.

      Kevin had the best character development. So did Jack, Laurie and Lou.

      On the other hand, some characters seemed forced in the story. I tried really hard, but couldn't find a reason for Candace to exist, except to constantly agree with Melanie and act as a wonder object for the bonobos.
      Also, why the hell would Warren and Natalie land themselves in the whole mess without any motivation?

      However, the most infuriating character development was of Melanie. If I were Kevin, I would have shot her at some point. Her teenage-ish, stubborn 'bravery' landed her (and her buddies) on hot waters several times. But when the need arose, she cried out like a baby.

      The most disappointing part, however, is the climax. It seemed like the author lost interest in the novel by the time he reached the end, and wrapped it up hastily. The protagonists seemed to breezed through Cogo, where I had expected a lot of action to happen, given the presence of the bonobos. Also, fates of a lot of characters went unexplained; to the extent where I had a feeling that the novel was missing several pages in the end. And it was an e-book.

      Robin Cook's novels are always double-edged swords for me. Whenever I begin one, I am sure I will come across several gripping plot elements. Accompanying that excitement, however, is a fear that the storyline will falter somewhere for no reason at all.
      I had better hopes for this novel, but it was only slightly better than my previously read disaster 'Mutation'.
    • 4/5
      very nice novel, the story about group of doctors of two different places, how they come together to solve a mystery about the liver transplant, overall a very nice concept
    • 3/5
      An odd book, in the last episode (Contagion) Dr Jack Stapleton was a cynical & sarcastic risk taker whose banter I quite enjoyed, in the opening of this book suddenly he has the appetite for risk of a 90 year old with osteoporosis, then suddenly he decides to flit off to Africa, with his own money, and 5 additional people, 2 of which were complete strangers he's just met. It all was a bit ramshackle.

      On the medical side of things, the areas of the book which dealt with forensic pathology and transgenics were interesting but the overall impression was a handful of narratives grouped together where there were holes in the plot line. It wasn't a bad book, but I definitely preferred the other Robin Cook books where realism takes a higher priority compared to sensationalism.
    • 4/5
      A Jack Stapleton and Laurie Montgomery novel. This book is about a group of doctors that are genetically growing human organs from monkeys. The plot involves the mob and takes place in NYC and Africa ( the latter is where the transgenetic work is done). The experiments in Africa are out of control and Jack, Laura and friends go there and meet up with facility employees trying to find out what is happening. In the end they release the monkeys from their captivity.
    • 5/5
      Robin Cook writes a good medical conspiracy book...always makes me nervous about doctors or anything related to the medical field.
    • 4/5
      Chromosome 6 presents an intriguing point of view from a storytelling front - as well as challenging whether or not a certain front of genetic manipulation should be followed.The book is a great medical thriller and poses one of the best not only "What if?", but also "Should you if you had the wherewithal to do so?" questions.After all, if you were able to have a perfect genetic match for any transplant you might need, would you take it? But what if it involved the kind of research that could and would raise eyebrows? Would you use that option then?Very good reading.
    • 4/5
      At first I thought, not for me. But ultimately and very exciting book. The author keeps me interested long enough to get to the exciting part. Lots of medical terms. Really good book. 4/5
    • 3/5
      3.5

      It was intriguing - characters were interesting... good guys were good, bad guys were bad lol. Ending was a little flat. Almost like- OH NO... I've made this book too long so BOOM. DONE.

      Neat idea - happy for part of the ending. Well this review kinda sucks hahahah.
    • 5/5
      Nora Roberts continues to amaze with her ability to weave love stories throughout epic adventures. Her books are fun, interesting and always leave you looking for her next one. This was a truly magical tale that managed to cross time and place while galloping towards the finale. A refreshing take on Vampires, Sorcerers, Witches, Humans, Shapshifters and their interactions. A testament to humanity and the constant battle that rages unseen between good and evil.
    • 4/5
      Note: For the purposes of this review, we will consider plots to be the quantum equivalent of lines or planes; therefore, plots, unlike lines or planes, can be parallel and intersecting at the same time. This is called the “plot-line tunneling effect.”In this fast-paced medical thriller, Cook develops two parallel and intersecting plots about scientists in Equatorial Guinea who are frantically exploring the ethics of genetic engineering, and medical examiners in New York who are stubbornly (and against all odds) determining the cause of death of a mysterious mobster-corpse. I found Cook’s characters well-developed, his plot original, and his narrative both humorous and suspenseful. Although I am generally not a fan of authors who reuse characters (how often can once-in-a-lifetime adventures happen to one medical examiner?), I loved this book and recommend it to any fan of medical suspense. I also found the genetic science thrillingly believable, considering that I, like one of the main characters, am a molecular biologist.
