Book Review of Relic (Pendergast, Bk 1)

Relic (Pendergast, Bk 1)

The first book by the duo Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, and it was a great start to their series of incredible books!

It itroduces you to Agent Pendergast who is a recurring figure through their works, and an incredible character. He's intelligent, quick-thinking, SOUTHERN with an accent, and has the oddest and most varied tastes!

The setting in a large natural history museum in New York is amazing. It is described wonderfully so you really can imagine the long hallways packed with oversized dino bones and drawers upon drawers of maps and records.

I totally reccomend starting with this book, and then reading through all the works created by Preston and Child!
