A solid Sigma Force adventure that's sure to please thriller fans." -- Kirkus Reviews on Tides of Fire "The X-Files meets Seal Team Six in Rollins's imaginative, pulse-pounding 17th Sigma Force thriller . Rollins's gleeful everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach works well here, nimbly balancing popcorn action with mind-blowing scientific speculation.

The author has rarely been better at making the implausible feel plausible." -- Publishers Weekly on Tides of Fire "Tides of Fire is an outstanding, high-octane read that will make you look at the world around you from a different point of view and should be treated as a cautionary tale about what our planet is capable of." -- Bookreporter.com "Master of the Doomsday scenario, James Rollins combines earthquakes, tsunamis, and the hellish fury of the Ring of Fire with the disappearance of a Chinese nuclear submarine to reveal.a hidden sea of ancient coral like nothing seen before on our planet--harboring Medusa's power to turn human flesh into stone.
