Opal is a doctor working at a remote clinic in the jungles of Papua New Guinea. When a strange, genetically engineered soldier drops into her life, she must run for her life to escape his ruthless compatriots, a mercenary company known as Blackstorm. Along the way, the mercenary, called "Pholus" after a mythical centaur, finds that there are "feelings stronger than instinct, and loyalties higher than money."

Rating:
An interesting concept based on genetically engineered soldiers, full of action and intrigue. This series first draws you in straight off the bat and
continues with the adventure with both main characters running for their lives. Although there is not a true conclusion to the story (don’t worry,
book two ‘Amazon’ continues where ‘Centaur’ leaves off), the story does finish on a high. The story is well written, although I would have
liked to have a little more history on the characters as well as know a bit more about Pholus’ abilities and who Blackstorm is...
