Gave to my mother-in-law with the stipulation that she pass it on when she's done with it. I know she won't make a journal entry, but that's o.k. :)

Map of Bones was borrowed from my daughter-in-law and is one of the best books I've read latley. Several people have expressed an interest in reading it after me, so I'm not sure where it will go from here.
An action-packed, fast-paced, treasure hunt combines religious artifacts and customs, and historical places and events with conspiracy, deception, mysticism, intrigue, and unusual phenomena. There is enough realism to be educational and thought provoking, but the unbelievable aspects of this fascinating adventure stretch your imagination to the very limits. The problem solving strategies, high tech gadgets, scientific principles, and geographical references appeal to the intellectual mind while the undercurrent of faith, loyalty, romance, and family ties stir the heartstrings. This captivating book held my attention from beginning to end, and I look forward to reading more novels by James Rollins.

Returned to me by my MIL, who had passed it around to various friends. They all enjoyed it, but none of them elected to do a wild release. So I'm making it available on BookMooch.com.
