About James Rollins

Veterinary Medicine is a very time consuming, stressful profession, especially for the owner of the veterinary practice. Author, James Rollins (aka James Paul Czajkowski) began his adult career with a DVM degree from the University of Missouri in 1985. He was then working as many as 18 hours a day, while writing on his lunch time, or any spare minutes he might find. For ten years he operated his practice, employing as many as 24 staff personnel, continuing to write during spare moments. One day, he decided to reverse the job and hobby routine. He began writing full time and spent a day or so per week volunteering to do neuter surgeries at the local SPCA.

Rollins began his storytelling very early as a child, so it came naturally to him by the time he made it his main career. His writing gives the reader a look into unseen worlds, mostly underground or underwater. His books are full of originality, scientific breakthroughs, as well as historical insight. All of this packed into a fast paced story line that is honed using his basic knowledge of science and medicine. That skill sets James Rollin's books apart from the others. He is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of international thrillers that are translated into over forty languages. His "Sigma" series is his most popular.

3.5 Stars. There is good and there’s bad in War Hawk, the second entry in Rollins “Tucker Wayne" series. The good is, of course, more Tucker and Kane. The bad is (for me) that there’s too much ‘Sigma Force’ type action. I had hoped this series would concentrate more on Tucker and Kane. In the first......more

Goodreads review by Wilde on September 10, 2018

A man and his dog try to stop a dastardly plot. The basic idea / plotline were reasonable, but the writing was a bit clunky and there were too many “what?” moments in this book for me. Overall rating 2.5......more

War Hawk by James Rollins & Grant Blackwood deals with a lot of issues that get me so involved in the story, at times I forget it is fiction. This bone chilling, action packed suspense novel had my blood boiling, my head feeling like it would explode and my emotions running AMOK. Tucker is on the run......more
