Very good sequel to "The Dig". I read with interest other reviewers were disappointed with this sequel, but I don't agree.Seems that the story and characters went in a direction they did not expect, and they found that they did not like that. I must admit the story had some plot twists that I did not expect, but that's ok with me. The Reader finds that he/she does not know the characters as well as they thought, but that's often the case in real life. I still enjoyed the ride! I for one am still looking forward to more on Matt Turner in the future. Having enjoyed the first book in (the series?), I downloaded this one. I haven't often been taken by surprise so badly. Spoiler alert, sort of. The two main characters, who made the first book so enjoyable, suddenly took on entirely different personalities without any warning or explanation. This is not an exaggeration. If you enjoyed the first book, you can't enjoy the second unless you have multiple personality disorder. The only way a third book could be readable is if Siemsen reveals that an unmentioned alien invasion had taken place during this book, and the characters' bodies had been taken over by neurotic bastards from another planet.
Do You like book The Opal (2000)?
Not as good as his earlier work called The Dig

Good, but not near as good as The Dig.
