Forbidden Island

By: Jeremy Robinson

Narrated by: Jeffrey Kafer

International best-selling author Jeremy Robinson has been compared to both Matthew Reilly and Stephen King. In Forbidden Island, he brings the characters and plotting of the fastest paced thrillers together with mind-bending imaginative horrors.

Seeking to contact humanity's lost tribe....

On the precipice of a cliff, contemplating suicide, dishonorably discharged US Army Ranger Rowan Baer is invited to provide security to a research team visiting the most dangerous island in the world - North Sentinel Island in the Sea of Bengal. Seeking redemption, he accepts.

Living among Amazon rainforest tribes, eccentric Israeli anthropologist Talia Mayer is recruited to study the island's elusive inhabitants - the Sentinelese - who have resided on the tropical island since the dawn of mankind. Seeing the chance of a lifetime, she joins the team.

On the run from his past, Palestinian linguist Mahdi Barakat is given little choice: join the expedition and make contact with the Sentinelese, or be left to face the men tracking him down. Afraid for his life, he finds safe harbor halfway around the world.

As part of an expedition funded by the Indian government and supported by a local resort millionaire, the team struggles to make contact with the Sentinelese, a tribal people renowned for their violence, strange behavior, and mysterious ways. But when the expedition's yacht strikes a reef, and sinks, the team finds themselves stranded on an island few people have ever set foot on and survived, an island that they quickly discover is home to far more than primitive tribal people.

...They uncover the very source of evil.

Great Story!

This is one of my favorite Jeremy Robinson books to date. This has all of the creativity and fast pace typical of his work, plus a touch of truth, and a redemption story. There is so much to internalize with this book, I simply love it!

Very bloody... In all respects

This story had all the elements and format from other stand-alone feeds con this author. But it was just too bloody: bloody plot, bloody minded and the inconsistencies from the developments at the beginning and the final resolution /explanation are just too much for me.

Much more than expected.

In the Sea of Bengal lays North Sentinel Island. By all accounts an isolated, prehistoric island inhabited by Sentinelese; secluded, secretive natives who have lived there since the beginning of time. Our group of professionals and adventurers has come to the island in the hope of establishing a rapport with the natives. The goal is to bridge the communication gap, develop trust, and form a sort of treaty to protect the natives and prevent possible interference by the government. The island and its inhabitants have been veiled in mystery and any previous meeting attempts have been met with violence. The group is headed by Talia Mayer an Israeli anthropologist, Mahdi Barakat a Palestinian linguist, and Rowan Baer a former Army Ranger serving as security. Our well-meaning group discovers much more than they bargained for when they are forced ashore due to sabotage. The story is fairly complex with several unexpected twists and turns that will keep the reader surprised and interested.

Another great listen

I didn’t expect what turned out to be on that island. Characters to love. Characters to severely dislike and as always with Robinson-great world building and character evolution. A wild, trippy ride. Was it real? I Really enjoyed this story.

Dolphin calls drizzled in terror fuel!

This book was great. The characters were all fleshed out well and though the reasons for them being together were kind of basic, the elementary quality of the plot stopped there. The island and its inhabitants were quality and they were terrifying. The twists and attempts at explanation, the preview of the end, the end, and the idea that there could be more intrigue outside of the boundaries of the book made me want more. The idea that there could be an island or a tribe of people like this is the stuff of nightmares. I can not remember reading or listening to a book quite like this before. And the writing and narration were top notch. Great job guys.
Dolphin calls drizzled in terror fuel indeed!
