Storm Cycle

By: Iris Johansen, Roy Johansen

Narrated by: Tanya Eby

Rachel Kirby is a computer genius whose personal life is hell. While she continues to climb the corporate ranks, her beloved twin sister is plagued by a chronic illness that will eventually kill her, leaving Rachel all alone.

Serendipity in the form of a mysterious email lands in Rachel's lap one day, but not without a price. Thousands of miles away, archeologist John Tanek sits trapped inside a collapsed Egyptian tomb with a functioning laptop. He knows that Rachel is the only person who can help him, but time is quickly running out. It turns out the collapse was no accident. John has discovered something very valuable in that tomb, something that humankind has been searching for throughout history, something that Rachel could use as it may hold the key to her sister's cure.

While Rachel orchestrates his rescue, she soon finds herself trapped in a dangerous web of deceit and murder. Can she put her trust in John Tanek? She'd do anything to save her sister. Will they both live long enough to unravel the ancient mystery they've found inside the tomb?

With Johansen and Johansen's fast-paced action, charismatic characters, and impeccable research, Storm Cycle will carry you away.

Great for a road trip

What did you love best about Storm Cycle?

The story kept me interested the entire time I listened to it. From the beginning to the end I hated taking breaks during our trip due to the fact I had to stop listening. Made a trip from Colorado to New Hampshire more interesting.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked all of the characters involved. Its one of Iris's strong points in her writing is multiple strong characters.

Any additional comments?

No

Started slow, ended ok

I really prefer "Page Turners" which this isn't. I enjoyed it but won't go back and re-read it later. I'm not sure what it is missing, but it's definitely missing something. If you enjoy basic mystery novels, you'll enjoy this one.

Subject matter

Storyline was a little scattered, having little knowledge of the subject it was not easy to follow. overall it was a fun read.

Very bad audio

The story was OK, but the audio not so good... every other chapter was incomplete.. I managed to understand the plot anyways, I guess no vital parts were left out, but still, it was a nuisance...Also, it left me with a feeling of 'deja vu'.. intermitently, excerpts would repeat again and again.
