Book-a-book of the Month Club discussion

Discuss the authors here. Other books of theirs you have read, want to read, etc.

I’ve not ready anything by either of these authors before, but they’ve been on my “to read” list for sometime. I don’t know a lot about them or their typical genre of writing. I’m really intrigued by this selection. I am curious to see how they handle the dual authorship though. When I’ve read books with dual authors before, there has been a clear distinction of who was the lead where. Other times, they either did a really good job of partnering or one author was attached for namesake and selling purposes.

I have read a lot of their books and love them! My suspicions are that Preston handles the archaeology and mystery while Child handles any high-tech/sci-fi specifics.

I've read the second book of the Pendergrast series. I really like them and plan on continuing. They just know how to keep the story moving.

I thought it was interesting to read in the back of this book that Preston did a thousand-mile horseback journey retracing Coronado's search for the Seven Cities of Gold. Not your typical vacay. Lol!

What these guys do on vacation put me to shame!
