I wish I had saved my money. I read the first book (Sick) in the Project Eden series and it was much better. It grabbed my interest and held it to the end, thus my excitement when I saw the second book had been released. I wish I hadn't bother. There is no real action, mystery or suspense. There are a lot of "holes" in scenes that could have been better presented with a little extra effort. The book is no more than 'hurry up and wait' filler that never ends with poor decisions that aren't even slightly justified. The author's poor attempt at trying to regurgitate the status of the ill-developed characters at the end of the book is aggravating. I had forgotten who most of the characters were or what supposedly happened to them. It is obvious that the author was treating the book as if it was a soap opera or prime-time TV show by ending with  "if you want to know what happens next"....an obvious ploy to try and get readers to buy the next book. All it did was teed me off.  I generally like this authors writing as I have purchased every Quinn novel written. Now, I'm not sure I want to pay for anything else by him for fear that it will also be left with no ending. Real authors don't need senseless cliffhangers.
