Finished BLACK ORDER

9591472

This author writes intelligent action/thrillers.  From the moment it starts, it is an "on the edge of your seat" roller coaster until the end. On the way, the reader is treated to knowledge about the world's scientists scramble to grab up Nazi research at the end of WWII as well as quantum physics.  The explanation of the latter is such that even I could understand it...attesting to Rollins' teaching ability as well as his story-telling ability.  The tale takes us through Europe, the Himalayas, and South Africa, holding tight to our seats the entire way.  I am about to order more of this man's books.

I have now started The Devil's Diary/ Alfred Rosenberg and the Stolen Secrets of the Third Reich by Robert K Wittman and David Kinney.  It was not planned that I would be following up a novel involving Nazi secrets, with a Non Fiction book along the same vein...  It is just the way the books came up in my piling system.  The first chapter takes us pretty much to the end of the story first, discussing the scramble for Nazi documents after the war and the reasons that so many just disappeared...making research into these subjects difficult.
