This is book 3 in the disaster thriller trilogy of ArkStorm, Fractured and now Mammoth. Mammoth picks up where Fractured left off and features characters from the first two books. Scientists Mac Attwood and Taylor Reed are back along with the couple from the first book and fire chief Finn and his dog. The volcano erupts in this book, but far too much time is spent with Mac and Taylor and their romance and awful jokes. There are descriptions of the disaster unfolds, but so much time is spent with the couples it takes away the focus of the book for me. The first remains my favorite- a thrilling look at a disaster that was a page turner. This book was just ok for me and the cheesy wedding was ridiculous. I need a Preston and Child book to recover. Narration was by the same fellow who did the last book, whose voice is so soft what he’s reading doesn’t really stand out.
