Reviews

  • The environment strikes back!

    I am not a native German speaker, being only an intermediate student, and so this book was challenging to me--but, what an exciting and captivating story. I honestly did not know where this plot was going to end up. I went whale watching near Vancouver Island after reading the first half of the book, and, you'll understand after reading it yourself, I was nervous! The book is so good I'm going to reread it in its English translation. Then I'll probably provide a more thorough review.

  • Parfait

    Recu très rapidement avant la date prévue et dans très bon état .

  • Spannender Ökothriller

    Spannend geschrieben, immer noch aktuell, man lernt nebenbei noch interessante Fakten aus der Wissenschaft.

  • Boa ideia, mas desnecessariamente longo

    O livro me lembrou Solaris. A ideia é boa, mas mal executada. Faltou um bom editor para cortar metade do livro. Dialogos sofriveis e pouco realistas.

  • A very good buy.

    Very pleased with my copy of this book. I look forward to a jolly good read.
