My review -
Adam
is an archaeologist serving as a captain in the American army in Iraq. A dust
storm has cleared some previously unknown ruins in the desert and he and a few
colleagues are sent to investigate it. The information he finds changes his
view of the origins of the human species.
This
story takes a path perhaps familiar to some readers of this genre. Did we
evolve as other creatures did or were we 'helped' in any way? I loved the way
that various creation myths were invoked, some of which I was familiar with
already. Towards the end the story took a turn which I hadn't expected. This
isn't a long read but it's fluent and persuasive. I enjoyed it very much.
