Amazonia

James Rollins’ Amazonia is fantastic. He is a descriptive writer who draws the reader into his books.

Years after an expedition goes into the Amazon, the lone remaining member stumbles out of the rainforest. The ex-special forces soldier is scared, mutilated, and terrified. Oh, and when he went into the jungle he only had one arm; now he has both. Upon this discovery, the government sends a new expedition to follow the soldier’s trail back into the forest. What the scientist, Nathan Rand, and his team of Army Rangers find one the way will be both life-threatening and incompressible.
