A phenomenon known as crustal displacement shifts the Earth's crust, repositioning continents and causing countless deaths. In the wake of the global catastrophe, the world struggles to take care of its displaced billions. But Antarctica, freshly thawed and blooming, has emerged as a new hope. Rather than wage a world war no nation can endure, the leading nations devise a competition, a race to the center of Antarctica, with the three victors dividing the continent. It is within this race that Mirabelle Whitney, one of the few surviving experts on the continent, grouped with an American special forces unit, finds herself. But the dangers awaiting the team are far worse than feared; beyond the sour history of a torn family, beyond the nefarious intentions of their human enemies, beyond the ancient creatures reborn through anhydrobiosis-there are the Nephilim. The world races to claim a new continent, only to find it already taken.

Review Summary: Try, try again
Review: There are some good things here, but this is a writer in the making, one who needs a bit more discipline and a better editor. After an intriguing beginning, this book becomes confusing and predictable at the same time. I don't mind the author's religious viewpoints, some of which I share. What I do mind is his failure to deliver on the promise of the first quarter of the book.

Review Summary: New Concept To An Old Theme.
Review: Jeremy Robinson's Antaktos Rising grabs the reader right from the start. Each character adds another layer to the story and there is no fluff. There are characters that you will love and some that you will love to hate. As the author of The Second Virgin Birth, I am jealous of his skill as a writer. I did not want to put this book down until I finished it. The Antaktos Rising is a must read

Review Summary: Antarktos rose to my acceptance
Review: This is a very good action oriented book that has a little of everything. Characters are well written and their are a variety of characters from a father/daughter with a rocky relationship to characters of international importance that oppose and ultimately come together in a time of termoil.The novel starts at a nice pace and keeps up the suspense.I would describe it as a cross between "Jurassic Park", "The Land before Time" and "Day After Tomorrow".
This book is timely in a biblical sense with some biblical references from Genesis and Revelation. They are fairly accurate but the fictional aspect of the book distorts the references; although, in an entertaining fashion.
Id love to see a sequel to this book and will probably read other novels that this author publishes.
I recommend it as an fun, entertaining read for a cold fall or winter night.
