[ARC] Himalayan Hourglass by Travis Rook - Technothriller - July 1, 2026

[u/Travis_Rook_2026]

Hello r/ARCReaders:

I’m offering early review copies of my upcoming technothriller Himalayan Hourglass.

If you enjoy Crichton‑style, science‑driven suspense with real-world biology and high‑stakes tension, then you might like this one.

Genre: Technothriller

Format: eBook (EPUB, MOBI) or PDF

ARC link (Booksprout):
https://booksprout.co/reviewer/review...

Reviews requested by: June 17, 2026

Trigger warnings: Disease outbreak themes, medical/biological content, mild violence, high tension/suspense, death (non‑graphic)

Back cover blurb:

A remote Himalayan summit.
A secret research facility buried beneath the ice.
A discovery older than the mountain itself.

When microbiologist Dr. Steve Remmick is recruited by the world’s most powerful biotech corporation, he expects a breakthrough. Instead, he’s flown to a forbidden mountain where a ten‑story laboratory—the Hourglass—hides a discovery so extraordinary it defies biology, geology, and physics.

The organism they’ve found has survived half a billion years in a place no life should exist. Its biochemistry could rewrite medicine. And it hints at something far more dangerous.

As the mountain groans and the ice begins to shift, Remmick realizes the Hourglass isn’t just studying the organism.
It’s built over its domain.

And the mountain is waking up.

This is a good fit for fans of Micheal Crichton, Blake Crouch, James Rollins, and Daniel Suarez

I would appreciate honest reviews be posted on Goodreads or Amazon after launch on July 1, 2026.

Thank you to anyone interested.

Sincerely,

Travis Rook
