The popular American writer James Rollins: all books in order

The popular American writer James Chaikovsky was born in Chicago (Illinois) in 1961. With three sisters and three brothers he grew up in the Midwest, and the summer children spent in the countryside of Canada, where Jack decided to become a veterinarian. After receiving a doctorate in veterinary medicine from the University of Missouri, he opened his own veterinary clinic in Sacramento, California.

His first adventure novel author wrote under the pseudonym "James Rollins". All books in order (we will disassemble them in the article) begin with a work called "Cave". This novel James wrote without detaching himself from veterinary practice and graduated in 1995, but the publication took place only in 1998. In the period of three years of waiting, Tchaikovsky tries himself in the genre of fantasy, and in the same year 1998 his first book in this genre, "The Fire of the Witch", opens the cycle "The Damned and the Exiled." In the genre of fantasy, the author works under the pseudonym James Clemens. Tchaikovsky is a speleologist and certified by the association PADI-diver, therefore the actions of his works, taking place under the water and earth, are so realistic. "The New York Times" calls him the author with the best sales, and People magazine notes that every work of the writer instantly becomes a bestseller.

James Rollins "The Cave"

The events of the novel carry the reader to Antarctica, where a research expedition was sent to study and describe the remains of an ancient settlement found in one of the caves hidden beneath the eternal ice of the continent. The team of researchers will soon find out that it is not the first group that has descended into the icy labyrinth to study abandoned dwellings of about five million years old. It turns out that the first expedition was gone. In the process of searching for the previous team, researchers come to the conclusion that under the ice there is an entire unknown civilization with its secrets and riddles. Where the mysterious labyrinths lead the heroes and what they will have to face, the reader will have to find out. As already mentioned, "The Cave" is the first adventure novel written by James Rollins. All books (in order, we will analyze them in the article), written by the author in this genre, are no less interesting and worthy of attention.

"Pyramid"

The novel was published on July 3, 2000. The author himself with special trepidation speaks about the writing of this book, as he is a great admirer of history and folk traditions and studied a lot of material relating to the Incas. It is about the secrets of this civilization that we are talking about in the novel. The book is interesting not only for the amazing adventures of heroes, but also for the myths and historical facts that reveal many secrets of the ancient Inca civilization.

This is another bestseller of the author, published in 2001. The novel is a symbiosis of several genres, so its plot keeps the reader in constant tension. The thriller catches up fear with the oncoming universal catastrophe, captures the spirit with the incredible adventures of the protagonist, carries with it the unknown facts of alternative history and excites the imagination with the fantastic possibilities of ancient civilizations, while inaccessible to modern humanity.

"Amazonia" and "Iceberg"

Published in 2002, the book "Amazonia" is the third action-packed adventure novel, which the author wrote under the pseudonym "James Rollins." All the books in order, considered by us, continue the novel "Iceberg", published in 2003. Like previous works of the writer, these novels make the reader pretty nervous, empathizing with the main characters. In the novel "Amazonia" the author draws readers into inhospitable forests, which conceal the secrets of the death of a scientific expedition. And in his work "Iceberg" Rollins proposes to disclose the circumstances of a monstrous secret experiment buried in the polar ice, which can result in terrible consequences for the entire planet.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Speaking of James Rollins, of course, you should remember about his book "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008). Thanks to the author, a hero, loved by more than one generation, got new adventures and got a family. And although the adventures of Indie, associated with the crystal skull, perfectly recreated on the screen, a book with not included in the film colorful events is worth reading.

The Altar of Eden

The novel, published in 2012, immediately won the hearts of readers and carried away with an amazing mystery discovered in the delta of the Mississippi. At the center of the novel's events is the scientist Lorna Polk, who will study strange animals and go through terrible tests to reveal the mystery created by the author.

"Sigma Squad"

This is a cycle of thirteen adventure novels, united by the theme of the disclosure of dangerous conspiracies and mysterious phenomena by members of the secret organization "Sigma." The main characters that make up the squad have to solve a lot of intricate tasks, which the author James Rollins painstakingly devises for them. All books in order from the cycle "Order Sigma" begin with the novel "Sand Devil" (2004). Here the reader first learns about the existence of a secret organization dealing with the most mysterious phenomena on the planet. At the moment, the series of books "Detachment Sigma" ends with the novel "The Seventh Moral", released in 2016. Two cycles of novels written by Rollins co-authored with Rebecca Cantrell, the Sanguine Order and Grant Blackwood (Tucker Wayne), are equally fascinating for the reader.

To fans of the fantasy genre, the author has prepared several cycles of novels with equally fascinating stories and amazing adventures of the main characters. Let's remind, that in this genre the writer creates under a pseudonym "James Clemens".
