Great book, can't wait for 3rd part of the trilogy!!!

I just finished reading Resurrection, and I thought it was great. I am a huge fan of Steve Alten. This is another great book in his collection.

Mr. Alten, you've won over another fan...

I recently finished reading Resurrection, the first book I have ever read by Steve Alten. Well, I've found another worthy author that I can turn to when I need to escape the real world through the power of a good story. Although Resurrection, as I found out after I bought the book, is the 2nd installment in a trilogy, it is a great stand-alone apocalyptic sci-fi novel with a lot of history, technology, ecology and ethnicity woven into the plot in a very skillful way. I loved the way he gave very minutely detailed descriptions of the realms, the gadgetry, the natural phenomena and the technology that support the story, and also the fact that he is a very visual writer, making it easy to picture in your head the events that occur as the plot unfolds. I love authors like Stephen King, Dean R. Koontz, Bentley Little, Clive Barker, and John Grisham. Now I can add Steven Alten to my list. I can't wait to get my hands on Domain (the first of the trilogy) and Phobos (the last).

Great reading

See storyline above.A fascinating and thought provoking novel. Along with the stunning visuals, Alten has written a well researched (some bio/science and Meso-American history) tale that encompasses science and science fiction.I think some people are taking the stories they read a little too seriously. This is fiction. Pure unadulterated fiction. Enjoy, because your in for one fascinating ride.Highly recommended.

Awesome! A Great Novel!

Steve Alten has done it again. This book is sure to keep you up to the still hours of the night, Flipping pages.Like Domain, Ressurection is a well researched book. Introducing readers to Mesoamerican myths and legends. I Promise, You wont regret it.

Fascinating

Personally I have been more interested in ancient history in its reality. However there are few Fictional writers with whom I can relate to. Steve Alten and his Domain Trilogy being tops on that list. His ability to take historical items/information and weave it into this wonderful, and colorful tale is amazing. I myself have researched the Mayan history and found what Mr. Alten has offered is factual in what we know of their history and beliefs. It is due to this I think I find this work even more stunning. I was pleased after having read "Domain" that this was to be a trilogy. I looked forward greatly to the release of "Resurrection". After now having read "resurrection I found that I was not dissapointed in the least. As they say, the saga continues. My only frustration is that I have to wait for the next book. Kudos to Mr. Alten on his wonderwork.
