Product Description

Admiral Jonathan Riles, director of the National Security Agency, is dead, his covert special operations team now out in the cold, betrayed and hunted by their own government. Having failed to stop Los Alamos National Laboratory's dangerous Rho Project, their only hope is to find the secret informant within the Rho Project itself. But the clock is ticking as the U.S. government readies the release of a technological breakthrough, a nano-serum which holds the promise of curing all disease. And Africa is its first target.

In Immune, Richard Phillips takes his heroes on a thrill ride into darkness, a journey that thrusts their once comfortable lives through a meat grinder as brutal as a young soldier's first taste of combat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Engaging Read, Great New SF, January 25, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Immune (The Rho Agenda : Book Two) (Kindle Edition)
I've been reading Sci-fi for about 40 years now, so it seems like I already own or have read all the good books. I have to keep waiting for new writers to come on the scene or the oldies but goodies to write more stuff. So I delight in finding a new author with a worthwhile story. I got the Kindle for Christmas and decided to try Second Ship as one of my first downloads. I was very pleasantly surprised, but hated the ending, it ended almost mid-paragraph. The second book Immune was also good, and it ended well, still leaving you with the feeling that the story would go on, but not leaving you practically mid-sentence like the first book. I can't wait for the third installment; Wormhole, but there is no pub date for it yet. Its a good read, although the second book is darker, and worthy of a Jack Reacher novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, March 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Immune (The Rho Agenda : Book Two) (Kindle Edition)
I have been avidly reading books since I was 10 years old. Science fiction was my first love and continued to be so until I was in my early thirties. The first two books I ever read were "Starman Jones" and "The Year When Stardust Fell", and they still remain my favorites. I still have the copy of "The Year When Stardust Fell" that I first read all those years ago. My middle years I found myself gravitating toward military fiction (Tom Clancy). I am 51 now and find that after reading the first two books in the Rho series that I have a renewed love of science fiction. The author kept me riveted to each page and I am so longing that the third in the series were out already. Thanks to Richard Phillips I have found myself back to dreaming of far away worlds and other wordly adventures! Thank you, Richard for bringing me back to my youthful exuberance for science fiction!

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't put it down!, June 25, 2010
This review is from: Immune (The Rho Agenda : Book Two) (Kindle Edition)
Richard Phillips produced an amazing `Roswell' science fiction thriller with `The Second Ship (The Rho Agenda)' and he certainly did not disappoint with `Immune (Book Two of the Rho Agenda)'. I was on the edge of suspense while submersed in his created world as the story continues with Mark, Jen and Heather trying to expose what the Los Alamos Laboratory is attempting to release to the world, as being dangerous for the population. Along the way, the teens suffer their personal trials and the team sent in to investigate the National Laboratory is left on their own as many attached to them are killed. An investigative reporter becomes involved and leaks the information on the nano-serum and others meet tragic ends.

Phillips is phenomenal at adding in a few new characters, giving description of all things occurring and taking this story to another twisted, but enjoyable level. If you have an overly active imagination and find violence offensive, then I would suggest you pass as descriptions on some events are just enough to provoke the wildest imagination to take over. Yet for any sci-fi lover, or those that just love to read anything `alien' related, this was amazing as it grips you immediately and the conspiracies unwrap and you find yourself rooting for the main characters to overcome! I am anxiously and impatiently awaiting `Wormhole', the third in this wonderful series.
