Editorial Review:

Product Description:
FROM THE ICE...

A mammoth, flash frozen in solid ice 10,000 years ago is brought to the surface by a team of scientists. An act of sabotage frees the giant from its icy tomb and reveals the secret held inside.

OUT OF THE MAMMOTH...

The body of an ancient woman, cloaked in furs, slides out of the mammoth's belly. But it is not the woman that holds the team's attention...it is the object she is clutching...a device created by an advanced civilization.

THE HUNT IS ON...

The device is accidentally activated, summoning forces who seek its destruction. It is the key to mankind's salvation and freedom from the men behind the curtain, pulling the strings and leading humanity towards destruction.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good but not great.
Raising the Past is probably one of my least favorite by JR. I believe it's the 2nd book he wrote and I hadn't read it, so I downloaded the ebook the other day. I can really see how far he has come as a writer because I've read most of his newer books and I like them much better. His books are all fast paced, action adventure stories that usually have something to do with archeology or 'paranormal history' like ancient biblical/mythological monsters. He used to work in comic books and I think ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Decisions Decisions
This book became a real page turner after the base camp was destroyed and especially after they arrived at the citadel. It ROCKED just getting better and better. The author ingenuously blended evolution, religion and complex changing human interactions. The Arctic crew were there for different reasons (fame, science, money, just a job) and they bickered over real or imagined slights. But in the end, the crew compromised and worked together for their survival (and later for our species survival) ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very entertaining
Wow. I really enjoyed this book! The story is is gripping and I finished the book in two days. I hope there is a sequel.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good vs Evil. . . . . But which is which?
I have quickly become a Jeremy Robinson fan. I have bought and read all of his published novels so far. I will pre-order his next available title. I don't do this for just any author, only authors whose books I know I will truly enjoy.

This novel has action, suspense, thrills, good vs evil overtones, some science fiction, and religious threads as well. Jeremy Robinson manages to wave all this elements together in a very good manner.

It may not be Paradise Lost, but if you ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Sci-Fi/Adventure Combo
I am a big James Rollins fan and was recommended to read Robinson's books. I sure am glad I did because this was a great read which reminds me very much of Rollins' early works. I have read some of Robinson's comments and one of the things I liked about this book is that there was a bit more sci fi and monsters than some of Rollins later works. This book reminded me a lot of Deep Storm by Lincoln Child, but it went a lot farther in actually introducing you to the aliens and their intergalactic war. ... Read More
