El Área 51, el lugar más secreto de los Estados Unidos, resultó ser una pieza más de un enigma que se extendía desde las pirámides de Egipto hasta el misterioso rostro dibujado sobre la superficie de Marte. Formaba parte de un plan diseñado hace 5.000 años por quienes ya habían pasado por el planeta. Y ahora regresan. Cuando la científica Lisa Duncan y el oficial de las Fuerzas Especiales Mike Turcotte descubrieron la increíble verdad del Área 51, un «área de entrenamiento» ubicada en la base aérea de Nellis, en Nevada, abrieron una caja de Pandora que se había mantenido oculta al mundo durante más de cincuenta años. An excellent sequel to the first book of the series. The fact that the prologue of this book is the epilogue of the last book, and that the story picks up exactly where the last one left off was a nice break from stories where things pick up weeks, months, or even years from where the last one left off. The author is prone to go into long descriptions of things that don't really add to the story. I don't need to know the exact make and model of gun the main character is using, or each single step to putting on a parachute. It did distract from the story a bit, which is why I couldn't give the book 5 stars. The story is still compelling enough to make the story a joy to follow, while still being light enough that it's easy to put down and pick back up. This is book two of a series with an indeterminate author. Who wrote this book? Was it Bob Mayer or somebody else? I hate pseudonyms. Take credit for it or don't...just don't lie to the readers. t had an engaging plot, interesting characters, and a high level of suspense. Unfortunately, it felt like a bridge connecting the beginning (book1) and the rest of the plot. These must be read in order as it is one continous story.. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

To baseball fans of today, the name "Dodgers" is synonymous with Hollywood, the warm California sun, and names like Tommy Lasorda, Kirk Gibson, Steve Garvey, and Orel Hershiser. The Dodgers mean much more than that to fans of baseball history, however. Namely, these fans remember the famed "Boys of Summer," otherwise known as the Brooklyn Dodgers, a team that included some of the most storied players in baseball history, such as Hall of Famers Duke Snider, Roy Campanella, Gil Hodges, Pee Wee Reese, and Jackie Robinson. Although they eventually moved out West, the Brooklyn Dodgers provided some of the greatest moments the game has ever seen and some of the greatest personalities to ever take the field. Carl Erskine, another member of that legendary team, relates memories about his days with the Dodgers in a book full of true stories and revealing anecdotes. The result is "Tales from the Dodgers Dugout," a delightfully interesting trip through the world of baseball in the 1950s. Among Erskine's many tales are his dealings with immortal team official Branch Rickey, his view from the Dodgers' bench during Don Larsen's perfect game in the 1956 World Series, and his firsthand experiences when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier and became the first black player in Major League Baseball history. During his frequent speaking engagements, people often ask Erskine if all of his stories are true. His standard response has been, "Yes, I couldn't possibly make them up the way they actually happened." Now fans can read all of those great stories in "Tales from the Dodgers Dugout ."
