Review: Chaos- A Thrilling Adventure!
Rating: 4 out of 5

In Chaos, the main character is named Cyclone, and I would bet that he is based at least a bit on the author himself. Cyclone was an urban archeologist, but after a horrible accident that left men killed and Cy with painful flashbacks, he turned to a career as a treasure hunter. He left everything behind: his lover, his home, his fellow workers, and spends his time traveling the globe looking for treasure that will be sold to wealthy patrons. In just one day though, the course he was following gets skewered back to what he used to engage in, and Cy is back in New York City to search the hidden underground tunnels that few know about.I won't give away too much of the plot, but besides the colony of human tunnel-dwellers, there is something that goes bump in the night down there in the sewers and it's capable of chewing grown men in half.  Cy also has more on his hands to deal with: a discovered Nazi plot that involves a bomb underground that could blow the city sky-high, and a sexy adventurer who partners up with Cyclone to search for the clues to its existence and location.Mr. Meyer writes a fast-paced, engaging tale that would make an excellent movie. As I was reading, I was imagining the scenes being played out in Hollywood.  This book would fall into the genre of adventure, and I would liken it to the Indiana Jones movies. Character development is barely sketched out because the story is plot-driven, and we are only given the details we need to know to further the story.This might not have been the type of book I feel most comfortable reading, but it was still a pleasant read for me and I appreciate the talent of the author and his enthusiasm both in real-life and on paper is contagious. Pick it up and go along for the ride!RaeBest O' Books Reviews
