Sleeping Giants (Themis Files, #1) opens Goodreads in a new tab
Sylvain Neuvel
A girl in South Dakota falls through the earth, then wakes up dozens of feet below ground on the palm of what seems to be a giant metal hand. Seventeen years later she is a top-level physicist leading a team to understand exactly what that hand is, where it came from, and what it portends for humanity. Told almost exclusively through transcriptions of interviews conducted by a mysterious and unnamed character, along with journal entries and government memos, this debut describes a hunt for truth, power, and giant body parts.

My thoughts
first contact with aliens? sci-fi? seems right up my alley. But no. Maybe because of the writing style (it is in interview style) and well i was trying to get through this as an audiobook or ebook. Neither worked for me. Plus the premise was so interesting, I was really hoping it would turn into some thing bigger and more interesting. It was well, a let down to say the least. Sylvain Neuvel books are anyway a hit or a miss. This was a definitely miss.
