I love reading the books Preston & Child write together. But, I also enjoy checking out their solo work. Impact is Preston's third entry in the Wyman Ford series. Maybe not loving it as much as the Pendergast series, but still very good.
If you are looking for Indiana Jones type action combined with conspiracy theory and speculative science fiction, then Impact will be right up your alley. It is a wild mashup of all these genres, but works out quite well in the end.
The book starts out with three very unrelated storylines that end up crossing paths through some very farfetched coincidences. You will have to do some serious reality suspending to believe the progress of the plot. But, it is not a serious scholarly journal, it is a bit of escapism, so it's cool!
This book, and the Ford series, are definitely worth checking out if how I have described this book and it's genres intrigues you. I don't think you will regret it!

It does sound good, great review Matthew. I’m working my way through the Pendergast series. Slowly but loving it.

Thanks, Pat! It is a pretty decent series - and so excited to see what you think of the Pendergast series as you continue your journey!
