Entertaining...but it could have been better.

[Nora St Laurent · Rating 4 out of 5]

In this fast-paced thriller set in the not-so-distant future, the world is in the clutches of an alliance of governments, poised to install a single, global dictator.

When an EPA intern uncovers evidence of a massive political cover-up involving a nuclear testing project called THOR, he turns the documents over to his supervisor, Dale Crawford - and then dies under mysterious circumstances. As Crawford struggles to put the pieces together - and stay alive himself- he enlists the help of two others who are committed to exposing the truth before the THOR Conspiracy brings a malevolent superpower into being.

As a sequel I thought this book lacked some in development and didn't quite live up to the quality of The Illuminati. Regardless, it was still an excellent read with a quite unique concept for historical events.

Neither The Illuminati nor The Thor Conspiracy have aged well. I enjoyed them in the 1990s when I first read them, but on a second read this year I was both amused and disappointed by the poor writing (Burkett uses the phrase "he could care less" when it should be "he could not care less" as well as other common grammar errors) and outlandish plot.

Complete silliness.

[Mazo1313 · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overall a great read. A little hard for me to get into it in the beginning. It has to do with our government and, of course, not everyone was honest. At times, I found it scary to think maybe our government could turn out the way it was in this book. Check it out! Let me know what you think.

Environmentalist have taken over the US government and society and America is no longer a world power. A 50 year old coverup regarding the ozone layer threatens to expose the environmentalist culture and power.

This was a very interesting book. If we aren't carefully, this could actually happen to the USA and the world. People need to really question the actions of its governing body and not just go along with their programs.

Trying to get through. It's very preachy and the action is sparse. But I hate not finishing books.

I didn't really expect much out of this one. It had its moments and kept me engaged. Try Joel Rosenberg intead.

[Jenna · Rating 3 out of 5]

Enjoyed The Illuminati better...this one seemed a little anticlimactic to me at the end, but still a fun government conspiracy thriller...made me want to read up a little more on global warming :)

[Noreen · Rating 3 out of 5]

A timely government thriller book about environmental issues and government manipulation and cover-ups. Kept my interest and makes you think.

[Jessica · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lots of interesting tie ins to current events although it was written 15 years ago. Good plot; tho' very "convenient" wrap up, and not the most intriguing prose I've ever read.

[Ray · Rating 4 out of 5]

More true than when written in 1995

[Ricardo Mota · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very entertaining and enlightning.
