Excavation by James Rollins
Did not finish book.
Gosh, this was so terrible I had to quit reading. And I was sitting in a waiting room. Staring into space was better than reading this because my eyeballs were tired from rolling every third sentence.
Full of cliches. Sam doesn't just wear a cowboy hat, it's a "Stetson". In e-v-e-r-y mention. They sit in "stygian darkness". The middle-aged scientists feel awkward about their sexual tension. The black football player hates the gay guy. Albino tarantulas creep out of underground cave. The (Spanish-speaking) hired security team is secretly planning to kill the archaeologists and loot the site. And the Indian translator says "I no know". Give me a break. I thought about putting it in the pile of books in the waiting area but thought it might be bad karma to inflict this terrible book on another person.
