Customer Reviews
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In a word, incredible. Absolutely stunning. Better than any novel I had read up to this time and still one of the greatest books I have ever read.
The plot goes from a standard (censored as it ruins the plot) to an incredibly surprising(censored as it ruins the plot). It horrified me, made me laugh and scared me in equal measure, and for that you know you're reading a good book.
I seriously reccommend this to anybody, even if you are a fanatical X-FILES hater, you will enjoy it. Even if you've never read a book, or you've read all the others, read this one. It is incredible. Really, trust me. Don't miss out, because if you don't read this, you will.
Highly reccommended, as both a brilliant X-Files novel, a brilliant book and a downright brilliant piece of literature.
Buy it now.
Overall a solid piece of fiction
This is the second X-Files title that i've read, the first being "Antibodies". In "Ground Zero" the author demonstrates clear understanding/opinion into Mulder and Scully's relationship and their interdependance on one another. This is presented is a fairly stylised yet believable manner, with both characters existing as seeminlg intellignet entities, not merely as narrative devices, as in "Antibodies". So, if you're a fan of the relationship between Mulder and Scully, this title shouldn't dissapoint. The plot and characters themselves are not quite as compelling as those in "Antibodies", but the overall effect is one of a good, solid and genuinely ambitious storyline. This novel certainly does not have the gritty realism it could have, but makes for a nice few days' reading nonetheless. Recommended.
Excellent work of possible non-fiction!!
This is one of the best X Files books that I have read and when you listen to the tape read by Gillian Anderson, you are right on that atomic island! Buy it for all your friends - they will be 100% intrigued!
