Two authors

[Haunted]

Have any of you read anything by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child (writing together)?

I bought this book called Brimstone, but I'm not sure about the authors. I was hoping one of my homies here at Horror could help me out a bit.

I read Relic, but I wasn't terribly impressed so I never picked up anything else written by them.

Preston and Child are pretty good. Relic and the sequel were pretty good, but they were centered around some biological items -I'm a Bio major so it might not be your cup of tea. A good place to start is the Cabinet of Curiosities. The books are sequential but aren't sequels. The Characters continue and it helps if you are familiar with them. A note though, if its not an Agent Pendergast novel then their work tends away from Horror/Thriller and more toward Critcheon-esqe Techno-thrillers. Here's a list of the latter...

Thunderhead
The Ice Limit
Rip Tide

ETA: The biology of Relic and Reliquary is part fantasy and partly fictionalize realism, but I didn't have the course work back then to realize it was.
