Summary: UTTERLY COMPELLING, AS SWIFT AS A RUNAWAY TRAIN
Review: Quicksilver is full of fast and furious action and suspense. This powerhouse thriller achieves a runaway victory on the basis of sheer storytelling excitement. You will not be able to turn the pages fast enough. I passed up the author's previous novel ICEFIRE, but I am going today, to pick up ICEFIRE at my local store. I recommend this one for the miltary buff as well as the main stream people. "I would not miss this one!

Summary: One of the best thrlllers in years
Review: The Pentagon is held hostage in "Quicksilver", the thrilling new book by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, and the reader is held hostage by their magnificent plotting and unforgettable characters. Known and loved by millions for their Star Trek series, the authors took us on a wild, suspenseful ride and kept building the suspense until we forgot everything else, including breakfast, lunch, dinner and all plans made for 48 hours. Amy "Nuke" Bethune is a delightfully attractive heroine, a young woman who finds herself in the center of unexpected tragedy and has to prove her mettle. As we watched the President of the U.S. and our whole security system fall under devastating attack, we also marveled at the way Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens sprang surprises on us. Without giving away anything, we would shocked and overwhelmed by the dramatic twist on page 23. It literally bowled us over. The heroes in thes story are courageous and admirable, but no thriller works without a mesmerizing villain, and the authors have provided a great one for our reading pleasure. The phrase "cliffhanger" has been overused in reviews, but here the word applies. "Quicksilver" is a masterpiece, and would also make a superb motion picture. Now that we've had such intense enjoyment from the book, we can't wait to see it on the big screen.

Summary: Better than Clancy! A terrific thriller.
Review: This book is remarkable. Fast and continuous action. Surprises at every turn. When you think "the authors can't let that happen." it happens. A book that's hard to put down, even to get some sleep. And clean, that is, no sex. Wholesome family and patriotic values. Excellent!

Summary: Better than "The Hunt For Red October"
Review: This heart-pounding page-turner starts with a weapons test gone wrong, continues with terrorists taking over the Pentagon -- and then things get wilder.HINT: Buy it early in the morning, take the day off -- and don't let anything interrupt you until you're finished.

Summary: Excellent Fast Paced Read!
Review: This plays much like a Tom Clancy novel without having to wade through pages and pages of technical mumbo jumbo. Very hard to put down once you get into the story and it should grab you early on. About the only thing I could have done without was the romantic innuendo between several of the main characters...this would go over better in a movie but it could've been left out of the book in my opinion. Personally, if my life was on the line and I was trying to survive, how good my cohort's hair smells would probably be the last thing on my mind...

Summary: Great but ending disappointing
Review: This was a great book in the Clancy tradition, I really enjoyed it and had a hard time putting it down; but at the end I felt they decided they had enough words or ran out of time writing it and abruptly went to a sugary happy ending.
