David L. Golemon

David L. Golemon is the author of the Event Group Thrillers, including Event, Ancients, Leviathan and Primeval. Legend, the second book in the series, was nominated for a RITA award for paranormal fiction. Golemon learned an early love of reading from his father, who told him that the written word, unlike other forms, allows readers to use their own minds, the greatest special effects machines of all—an idea Golemon still believes. The only thing he loves more than writing is research, especially historical research, and he sees the subtext of his Event novels as being that understanding history allows us to create a better future. Golemon grew up in Chino, California, and now makes his home in New York.

    This one was interesting. I liked it because Sasquatch is in it. Also, I like the Event Group itself. It's a fun concept. I had some problems with this one. For one thing, the prologue was way too long. I just wanted the story to get started, and I wasn't all that into what was going on in the prologue.There are some major issues with the editing. Scores of misspelled words, grammatical errors, and there are even references to actions and dialog that aren't in the book. It is bad enough to be distracting.Finally, there is a reoccurring bad guy that is just getting old. The main character and the bad guy have been going 'round and 'round for five books now, and it's stupid. One would have killed the other by now, grudging respect or no. It just doesn't make sense that two killers of men who we are told hate each so much would be thrust into so many situations together with out one or both ending up dead. Five books is too long for this silliness.Like I said, i dig Sasquatch, and that was the reason I found the book as enjoyable as I did. I won't be rushing to read the 6th book.

    Pacific Northwest Legend Comes Alive When Tsar Nicholas, son of Peter the Great, learns that he and his entire family are to be executed, he locates imposters for his two youngest children so that some of his bloodline will survive. Under cover of darkness in a covert operation in 1918, he devises a plan to have the children whisked away to the Canadian wilderness accompanied by one of his most trusted guards, with two wagons full of American Gold Eagles and his prized treasure, what is known as the Twins. Two egg sized diamonds worth a fortune that will ensure the future for his children. In 1962, an American Air Force pilot on a secret mission, crashes his airplane toting a secret weapon into one of British Columbia's most unexplored regions. His body will not be found until 48 years later. Along Canada's Stikine River, in 1968, a half mad ornery old gold miner named L.T. Lattimer is river guide to a group of anthropology students from Stanford. One student named Charlie Ellenshaw wanders out of camp alone with L.T., and together they not only come across a cave full of gold, but an aged leather diary written in Russian by a Colonel Petrov. While trying to translate the journal, the two campers are witness to a strange and frightening phenomenon. From the forest comes shadows lurking, someone is watching them. In present day Nevada, the Event Group team members have just recovered from their last stint with the crisis on Leviathan (book 4) and are immediately hit hard again with the sudden news that team leader Jack Collins's sister, a CIA agent, has been kidnapped on a stakeout by Russian militants. All these story ingredients slowly come together as the Event Group team once again takes action kicking ass, chasing the bad guys, and encountering another paranormal entity which will feed the fuel to the home base scientific think-tank that was devised decades earlier in order for us to learn from the past through archaeological artifacts found today. Primeval, book five of the Event Group thriller series by David Golemon is a top notch action novel and is a fine installment to the ongoing series. Golemon's writing gets better and better with each book and readers will not be lacking for a riveting thriller. His writing is getting more tight and concise, the ongoing character development of each team member shows us more what is inside their minds and hearts, and the budding romance between team commander Jack Collins and Lieutenant Sarah McIntire continues to grow. All the major characters in the previous books attend, even the recurring indestructible villain Henri Farbeaux returns to once again join in the fun. This is one action series I run right out to buy the day it is released and I've not been disappointed yet. The Event Group books provide a blend of action, mythology, romance, humor, and military black-ops stealth. Terrific joy-ride entertainment; I look forward to book six which the author is currently working on.
