Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, by
James Rollins, is a really great book. Well it all starts when Indy for short is in Mexico, always looking to uncover lost history. He then gets kidnapped and then taken to the top secret base called hanger 51 (area 51). Indy using all of his wits escapes from the Russians which have him captive. He escapes a make believe town which is a testing site for atomic bombs. He somehow escapes that as well. Some time passed and Indy was giving notice of something that took him to Peru to look for a lost friend. To make a long story short Indy found clues of this crystal skull. When he found it he was captured by the Russian again. He was taken to South America where he was told to help the Russian to find the lost city of gold. But I think I should stop here before I start to spoil the ending.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for an awesome thriller novel. What I really like about this book is the suspense and the kind of humor that it uses. It's one of those books that will make you want to finish the book from cover to back in just one go. Another thing that I like is how the author makes this crazy build up of suspense.
