Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Compelling Novel of the East and West
Review: A classic page-turner that won't go unfinished among even the most langourous of readers for more than a few days after the first chapter is read. Tight, well-written, suspenseful. You'll never think of the Hay Adams in D.C. in the same way.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An Action Medical Thriller that Expands Your Thinking
Review: A gripping story. A sinister theme with a twenty first century heroine fighting the odds to avoid disaster for the U.S. The author has clearly a strong grasp of the cultural forces that could change today's world order.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Gripping Bio-Terror
Review: Supercharged high tech action and a multi-national cast of compelling characters make The Jianxi Virus a captivating page-turner.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Saving America from a microscopic lethal threat
Review: The Jiangxi Virus: A Novel Of Bioterror by Steven Schlossstein is a gripping story about a deadly pathogenic threat whose origins are in China. The Center for Disease Control assigns their top detective, Dr. Ellen Chou, to the all-important task of saving America from a microscopic lethal threat. Beset by terrorist aims, insufferable bureaucracy, and an ever-decreasing supply of time, Dr. Ellen Chou has her work cut out for her in this fast-paced saga. Not for the faint of heart, The Jiangxi Virus is a gripping and highly recommended read from first page to last.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Gripping Bio-Terror
Review: This book will scare you almost as much as one of Stephen King's novels - BUT, it could be true! Schlossstein has done his homework and there is lots to learn about China and science inhis newest thriller. Just hope and pray that it remains fiction and not fact!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Is it fact or fiction?
Review: This is a frightening preview of a very real, potential terrorist threat. Reading this exciting book in April 2003 provided a juxtaposition of Jiangxi Virus fiction and SARS fact, especially with SARS emanating from China and initial puzzlement in how the SARS virus developed. The book is well-researched, with interesting scientific explanations, a la Clancy, further reinforcing the credibility of the book's foundation.
