Join Barry Pollack, author of the contemporary science fiction thriller, Forty-Eight X :The Lemuria Project (Medallion Press, December ‘09), as he virtually tours the blogosphere on his first virtual book tour with Pump Up Your Book Promotion.
In Forty-Eight X: The Lemuria Project, there are secret experiments taking place on a tropical island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. The United States has assembled a group of geneticists to work on the top-secret Lemuria Project. They create a warrior that is so strong, fearless and obedient. Colonel Link McGraw is chosen to train the soldiers and he is haunted by a shady and dangerous past. He is skilled in the techniques of combat, and he knows how to train a perfect soldier. When two scientists Fala al Shodaha and Joshua Krantz, accidently stumble across the project, they are determined to uncover the truth. When Krantz meets McGraw they clash over the project and compete for the affection of Fala. Who are these trained soldiers and who gets the girl in the end? I will never tell.

My Thoughts-
I have always loved Sci-Fi thrillers. I enjoyed the book and the author was able to combine romance, adventure, politics and sci-fi into a military thriller. Some of the language was a little bit racy but the plot was engaging and fast-paced. I recommend this book to all of you Sci-Fi lovers out there.
