"Jeremy Robinson's novel RAISING THE PAST is a rollicking Arctic adventure that explores the origins of the human species. Written in a solid cinematic style, it starts with the excavation of a frozen mammoth in the wilds of the Canadian tundra and ends with a pitched battle for the future of mankind. A story not to be missed!"--James Rollins, bestselling author of MAP OF BONES and BLACK ORDER
"RAISING THE PAST by Jeremy Robinson is a taut thriller that zooms. It's a wonderful mix of prehistoric intrigue, a modern-day love story, and a futuristic conspiracy bound to envelop any reader. Highly recommended." - Jon F. Merz, author of the Lawson novels & Danger-Close
“...a very good read... is it sci-fi,
thriller, adventure or fantasy? In my opinion, it's a little of
them all rolled into one and quite enjoyable... I have no idea
how the author came up with this one.” – Wakefield Today
“Raising
The Past by Jeremy Robinson is an interesting...story about an
archeology dig gone wrong. The main characters have traveled to the
frozen tundra of Canada to unearth a purportedly fully intact wooly
mammoth. This mammoth is not only a great find for the scientific
minded, but a possible financial windfall for the backer as well.
Unfortunately for the scientists involved, this turns out to be more
important than they suspected; infinitely more dangerous too. Mr.
Robinson clearly has some writing talent and created some fun
characters and interesting storylines...” –

"Raising the Past,
by Jeremy Robinson may be his best work to date. I wasn't quite sure
what to expect with the mammoth being raised from the ice and an
ancient woman inside its belly holding a mysterious alien device,
but folks this is edge-of-your-seat reading all the way. Fans of
Robinson's first fiction effort should understand at the outset that
this is not a christian story like that one was. There is some
language content in this adult thriller, but not more than you would
find on pg rated television.
"The story begins with the ancient woman and two mysterious men who
give her the device she will be found with later when the mammoth is
raised from the ice in the Canadian North centuries later. The
mammoth itself is an incredible find for researchers and a huge
recovery operation is quickly underway to retrieve the fully intact
specimen. The team soon discovers the alien device with the frozen
remains of the ancient woman inside the mammoth and they unknowingly
activate it. Very quickly, the team is fighting for their lives
against several different and terrifying enemies, all seeking the
device they hold. One of the greatest enemies the team faces is the
frozen environment itself and the predators that inhabit it.
Robinson's latest is the first fiction release from up and coming
independent thriller publisher, Breakneck Books, and it's easy to
see why they chose this title to launch with. If it's any
indication, we should expect some very nice surprises from this
publisher in the future. Raising the Past grabs hold of you and
never lets go! Robinson keeps you guessing as to who the real enemy
is all the way to the last page. I picked up this book and zoomed
through it--Raising the Past is a furious page turner! I look
forward to seeing more from this author and Breakneck Books." -
