Review
Few thrillers manage to evoke both the eerie atmosphere of classic horror and the pulse-pounding suspense of a modern crime procedural – but Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child’s Relic pulls it off with masterful flair. From its opening moments in the shadowy halls of New York’s Museum of Natural History, the story beckons listeners into a labyrinth of ancient secrets, scientific marvels, and chilling danger.
What sets this audiobook apart is not just its ingenious plot or vivid setting, but the electrifying performance by Ray Porter. His narration elevates Relic, immersing listeners in every tense exchange and heart-stopping twist. Porter’s voice captures urgency when terror stalks the museum’s corridors; he delivers dialogue with distinct personality – whether it’s Special Agent Pendergast’s enigmatic calm or Detective D’Agosta’s grounded determination. It’s a testament to his craft that even scenes heavy with exposition crackle with energy, pulling you deeper into the mystery.
Preston and Child deftly weave together strands of police procedural, archaeological adventure, and supernatural speculation. Their attention to scientific detail lends authenticity to every clue unearthed beneath layers of history. The pacing builds steadily: what begins as an investigation into brutal murders soon spirals into a desperate hunt for answers as bodies pile up and suspicions turn toward something not quite human lurking among priceless relics.
Characters are another highlight – Margo Green’s curiosity and resolve, Pendergast’s almost otherworldly intelligence, D’Agosta’s skepticism – all contribute unique perspectives that enrich the narrative tapestry. Even secondary characters are memorable, each adding depth to the unfolding drama within the museum walls.
Some listeners have noted occasional slow patches in pacing or anticipated certain reveals before they arrived – but these minor quibbles are easily outweighed by relentless suspense and immersive world-building. As revelations mount toward a finale that blends science with myth, Relic leaves you eager for more adventures from Pendergast and company.
For fans of tightly plotted mysteries tinged with horror – and anyone who loves expert narration – Relic is an essential listen.
