Praise for Jeremy Robinson’s SECONDWORLD
“Jeremy Robinson’s latest thriller is massive in scope and brilliantly apocalyptic. Here is a feat of storytelling that shocks as much as it exhilarates. SecondWorld is far from second best.”
—James Rollins
“The popcorn novel of the summer has arrived, and Jeremy Robinson delivers an action fest that rivals the best of James Rollins, Clive Cussler, and Matthew Reilly.”
—
Associated Press
“Another crisply plotted tale from the fertile imagination of Jeremy Robinson. This one has it all, frozen Nazis, UFO crashes, Antarctica, and some really cool science. Plan to hunker down for an all-nighter with this one. I did.”
—Steve Berry,
New York Times bestselling author
“Relentless pacing and numerous plot twists drive this compelling stand-alone from Robinson… Thriller fans and apocalyptic fiction aficionados alike will find this audaciously plotted novel enormously satisfying.”
—
Publishers Weekly
“Gripping, propelled by expertly-controlled pacing and lively characters. Robinson’s punchy prose style will appeal to fans of Matthew Reilly’s fast-paced, bigger-than-life thrillers, but this is in no way a knockoff. It’s a fresh and satisfying thriller that should bring its author plenty of new fans.”

Booklist
“A brisk thriller with neatly timed action sequences, snappy dialogue and the ultimate sympathetic figure in a badly burned little girlwith a fighting spirit… The Nazis are determined to have the last gruesome laugh in this efficient doomsday thriller.”
—
Kirkus Reviews
“The year 2012 is synonymous with Doomsday, but what if the cause of the chaos to come was… Adolf Hitler? Read SecondWorld , a new treat from Jeremy Robinson.”
—Steve Alten,
New York Times bestselling author
“A harrowing, edge of your seat thriller told by a master storyteller, Jeremy Robinson’s SecondWorld is an amazing, globetrotting tale that will truly leave breathless.”
—Richard Doestch, international bestselling author
“Robinson blends myth, science, and terminal velocity action like no one else.”
—Scott Sigler,
New York Times bestselling author
