Descrizione
Até que chega a vez da 12.ª expedição. Composta por quatro mulheres (antropóloga, topógrafa, psicóloga e bióloga), a sua missão é desvendar o enigma. Mas acontecimentos bizarros e formas de vida que ultrapassam o entendimento minam a confiança entre os membros da expedição. Nada é o que parece e o perigo espreita a cada esquina. Que novos horrores se escondem na Área X? Será a 12.ª expedição capaz de revelar todos os segredos… ou estará condenada à pior das tragédias?

I didn't know whether or not I would like the book but I did very much. It was surprisingly short but I felt that this was just right. This ensured the words on the page were worth it.The descriptive writing was excellent. Area X is a strange place which reminded me of the area in [b:Roadside Picnic|331256|Roadside Picnic|Arkady Strugatsky|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1173812259s/331256.jpg|1243896] (and the film Stalker). I felt as though I was there and I could visualise the creatures, the coastline and the tower.However, I didn't really warm to any of the characters. I didn't really feel for the main character the biologist, though I felt more for her husband as I learnt about him.I found it a page turner and the climax was perfect. I will be reading the next in the series. I toyed with giving it 5 stars but I save 5 stars for 'wow' books. This was almost there...
