Description


Captain Shane Schofi eld and his elite team of marines is about to discover .
. .

There is no hell like a man-made one.

It is an island that doesn’t appear on any maps. A secret location where the government conducts classified experiments. Experiments that have gone terribly wrong. . . . When all contact with the mysterious island is suddenly and inexplicably lost, Captain Shane Schofi eld and four crack Special Forces units parachute in. Nothing prepares them for what they fi nd—the island is a testing ground for a deadly breed of genetically enhanced supersoldiers. You could say they’ve just entered hell, but this place is much, much worse. . . .

  • Terrific book for teens that don't like to read

    Another reviewer indicates buyer beware because of the limited page length. The story is short. But it's important to understand that the author states this was intentionally short to encourage those who don't like to read... To read. YEARS ago I was one of those kids and think it's great the author did this. This is another great Matthew Reilly book.
  • Great read but too pricey for length

    Didn't notice the # of pages until after purchase. $3.99 would have been perhaps more fair. Loved the story and Scarecrow, but feel kinda ripped off. That said, keep the Scarecrow stories coming, just price accordingly.

    It is a great book, I recommend it but it was a very short read. You should also read his other books with "scarecrow" in them, they r all great...

    Buyer should be a aware that this is a very short story. Perhaps the equivalent of a Reilly regular book chapter. It was good - typical action storytelling from the author but worth $1.99 at best. If it was a full blown book the price would be justifiable. I suppose the print length of 160 pages is a clue.

    I liked it .was a quick read with good action.The type of situations that you expect Scarecrow and his team to get out of without all the technical details.
