"Titan Six" is a sci-fi adventure story that's set not in deep space, but deep beneath America. After the Cold War, and the Cuban missile crisis, the United States decries the need for nuclear arms--all the while building a vast network of tunnels to transport its own stash of weapons that can't be picked up by Russian satellites.Flash forward to the present day--two men are hired to assess the condition of the tunnels and come upon a mysterious metallic sphere--which promptly fries them and leaves them as dusty bones. Titan Six, an elite paramilitary unit, is called in to investigate the cube, which kicks off an adventure action story that keeps the pages turning.I won't spoil where the cube came from or what it is, but I will say that its mystery propelled me through the book. Titan Six's members have unique personalities that lead you to care about them just as much as you care about the outcome of the story itself; the parallel storyline, with CIA agent Gwen Moss, is also tense and compelling.I would recommend this book to those who enjoy science fiction and those who enjoy thrillers; it has elements that will please lovers of both genres.
