Review Roundup

Relic by Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston captivates readers with its masterful blend of science fiction and horror, set in an eerily realistic museum environment. The narrative pace is brisk, keeping readers engaged, though some found the plot a bit formulaic. Character development is generally strong, though a few secondary characters feel underexplored.
