Warren Fahy Knihy

Autor v knize předkládá fantastickou směsici vědecky pojatého líčení, naprosté fikce a napínavého dobrodružného románu. Příběh začíná prologem, jenž se odehrál v roce 1791; tehdy jedna z lodí pátrající po vzbouřencích z legendární lodi Bounty narazila na osamocený ostrov v jižním Pacifiku a členové posádky ke svému nemilému překvapení zjistili, že na něm žije cosi velice nebezpečného; námořníci vysazeni na břeh byli do jednoho během několika minut mrtví. Vzápětí se ocitáme v současnosti k ostrovu připlouvá loď Trident, která má za úkol nalézt a natočit pro televizní program zajímavé formy života na odlehlých ostrovech, a veze na palubě skupinku vědců různých oborů. První setkání s ostrovem končí katastrofálně několik lidí je v mžiku zabito a sežráno prapodivnými dravými bytostmi, a to přímo před kamerami, které točí pro živé vysílání. To samozřejmě vyvolá náležitý rozruch, všichni se ale domnívají, že se jedná o nahraný podvod. Ti, kterým se podařilo uniknout, se snaží zorganizovat další výpravu, která by ostrov blíže prozkoumala.

Elise and her companions have made it to the safety of Uracil but at a price. Desperate to secure her family's passage, she makes a deal with Uracil's Tri-Council. She'll become their spy, jeopardising her own freedom in the process, in exchange for her family's safe transfer. But first she has to help rescue the next Neanderthal, Twenty-Two. Twenty-Two has never left the confines of the steel walls that keep her separated from the other exhibits. She has no contact with the outside world and no way of knowing why she has been abandoned. With diminishing deliveries of food and water, she has to start breaking the museum's rules if she wants a second chance at living. One belongs to the future and the other to the past, but both have to adapt--or neither will survive.

USA Today praised Warren Fahy's debut novel, Fragment, as "a rollicking tale [that] will enthrall readers of Jurassic Park and The Ruins." Now Fahy sets off an even more thrilling stampede of action and suspense, bursting forth from the hellish depths of...Pandemonium. Deep beneath the Ural Mountains, in an underground city carved out by slave labor during the darkest hours of the Cold War, ancient caverns hold exotic and dangerous life-forms that have evolved in isolation for countless millennia. Cut off from the surface world, an entire ecosystem of bizarre subterranean species has survived undetected—until now. Biologists Nell and Geoffrey Binswanger barely survived their last encounter with terrifying, invasive creatures that threatened to engulf the planet. They think the danger is over until a ruthless Russian tycoon lures them to his underground metropolis, where they find themselves confronted by a vicious menagerie of biological horrors from their past—and by entirely new breeds of voracious predators. Now they're rising up from the bowels of the Earth to consume the world as we know it.
