Auteur\u00a0: <\/strong>James Rollins<\/p>\n

Editeur\u00a0: <\/strong>City Editions<\/p>\n

Genre\u00a0: <\/strong>Thriller<\/p>\n

R\u00e9sum\u00e9\u00a0:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Une myst\u00e9rieuse explosion d\u00e9truit une collection d\u2019antiquit\u00e9s au British Museum. C\u2019est un v\u00e9ritable signal qui alerte plusieurs groupes et soci\u00e9t\u00e9s secr\u00e8tes \u00e0 travers le monde. Tous les moyens sont bons pour r\u00e9ussir \u00e0 d\u00e9chiffrer une tr\u00e8s ancienne \u00e9nigme conduisant \u00e0 la mythique cit\u00e9 d\u2019Ubar dont les ruines seraient enfouies dans les sables du d\u00e9sert. L\u2019aventurier Omaha Dunn, second\u00e9 par les hommes de Sigma Force, se lance \u00e0 son tour dans l\u2019aventure. Tous recherchent bien plus qu\u2019une cit\u00e9 perdue : les ruines dissimuleraient un pouvoir terrifiant pouvant instaurer un monde de paix ou, au contraire, de d\u00e9solation\u2026<\/p>\n

Avis\u00a0:<\/strong><\/p>\n

L\u2019ordre du dragon<\/strong> a fait conna\u00eetre James Rollins<\/em> au public fran\u00e7ais qui, depuis, se voit offrir \u00e0 tour de r\u00f4le ses derni\u00e8res parutions ou quelques in\u00e9dits ignor\u00e9s dans nos contr\u00e9es. La d\u00e9marche est similaire \u00e0 celle us\u00e9e avec Steve Berry<\/em> au vu du statut lucratif que remportent ces deux auteurs de best-sellers. Mais le roman pr\u00e9cit\u00e9 ne marque pas le d\u00e9but des aventures de l\u2019\u00e9quipe Sigma force. Contrairement \u00e0 ce que l\u2019on pourrait penser, La cit\u00e9 de l\u2019enfer <\/strong>n\u2019est pas une nouvelle histoire de James Rollins<\/em>. Il s\u2019agit simplement d\u2019une r\u00e9impression de Tonnerre de sable<\/strong>, paru en 2007 chez le m\u00eame \u00e9diteur. Au vu de la c\u00f4te de ce dernier (qui pouvait atteindre 50\u00a0\u20ac au format poche), cette initiative est plus que la bienvenue.<\/p>\n

Seulement, il aurait \u00e9t\u00e9 de bon ton de revoir une traduction approximative, ainsi que des fautes d\u2019orthographe, de syntaxe ou des oublis de mots pour le moins navrants. Ici, on laisse le texte tel quel avec ses erreurs grossi\u00e8res et un plaisir de lecture entach\u00e9, pour ne pas dire amoindri. Sentiment accentu\u00e9 par une structure retorse pour les novices en la mati\u00e8re. Des chapitres longs et denses qui, s\u2019ils n\u2019alt\u00e8rent en rien la progression, rebutent pour de courtes sessions de lectures. Cette premi\u00e8re approche se montre donc d\u00e9stabilisante pour la suite des r\u00e9jouissances. Pourtant, ce serait passer \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 d\u2019une qualit\u00e9 narrative peu commune.<\/p>\n

Malgr\u00e9 l\u2019architecture g\u00e9n\u00e9rale, l\u2019histoire est immersive d\u00e8s les premi\u00e8res lignes en jouant la carte de la curiosit\u00e9 et du suspense. Certes, quelques s\u00e9quences s\u2019av\u00e8rent pr\u00e9visibles. Il n\u2019en demeure pas moins que l\u2019ensemble multiplie les p\u00e9rip\u00e9ties sur un rythme nerveux. Pas de temps mort, encore moins de tergiversations. La succession d\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nements fait s\u2019entrecroiser autant le thriller que le roman d\u2019action, d\u2019espionnage ou d\u2019aventures. En cela, on est davantage proche des livres de Clive Cussler<\/em> que de Dan Brown<\/em> pour situer le contexte et le type de public vis\u00e9. D\u00e8s lors, la \u00ab\u00a0lecture-plaisir\u00a0\u00bb est privil\u00e9gi\u00e9e au r\u00e9alisme.<\/p>\n

De ce c\u00f4t\u00e9, James Rollins<\/em> fait montre d\u2019une excellente ma\u00eetrise dans les s\u00e9quences plus nerveuses avec des descriptions fouill\u00e9es et percutantes, et ce, en toutes circonstances. Il est vrai que l\u2019on pourrait reprocher une surabondance de fusillades et de courses-poursuites au grand dam des faits historiques relat\u00e9s. Toutefois, l\u2019on ne parlera pas d\u2019\u00e9quilibre des genres, mais de passages successifs prompt \u00e0 faire \u00e9voluer le r\u00e9cit vers un point de vue diff\u00e9rent de la recherche de la cit\u00e9 d\u2019Ubar. L\u00e0 encore, l\u2019environnement d\u00e9paysant de l\u2019Arabie Saoudite ou d\u2019Oman est d\u00e9peint de telle mani\u00e8re \u00e0 le rendre immersif au possible, sinon hostile.<\/p>\n

La galerie de personnages qui occupent les pages est facilement identifiable. Tr\u00e8s vite, l\u2019on parvient \u00e0 placer chaque intervenant au sein de l\u2019intrigue gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 ses relations plus ou moins houleuses avec les autres protagonistes. Tr\u00e8s peu d\u2019ambigu\u00eft\u00e9s, des caract\u00e8res qui \u00e9voluent avec difficult\u00e9, ainsi que des comportements pr\u00e9visibles font que cet aspect du roman se r\u00e9v\u00e8le assez conventionnel. En somme, la prise de risque est minimale pour assurer au r\u00e9cit sa fluidit\u00e9. N\u2019esp\u00e9rez aucun retournement de situation extraordinaire ou de probl\u00e8mes de compr\u00e9hension quant aux aboutissants de pistes \u00e9voqu\u00e9es pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment.<\/p>\n

Au final, ce premier tome de la saga Sigma force rempli son office sans trop d\u2019efforts. Efficace et immersif \u00e0 plus d\u2019un titre dans la mani\u00e8re d\u2019agencer son histoire avec force et description, La cit\u00e9 de l\u2019enfer<\/strong> (ou Tonnerre de sable<\/strong>) fait se succ\u00e9der les genres sans jamais d\u00e9contenancer ou contredire nos attentes. Il en ressort un p\u00e9riple d\u00e9paysant propre aux grands r\u00e9cits d\u2019aventures. Dans une certaine mesure, on pourrait le rapprocher de Sahara (Clive Cussler<\/em>), autant pour son intrigue (m\u00eame si la th\u00e9matique de base est diff\u00e9rente), que pour son environnement ou ses protagonistes. Une distraction de premier ordre si tant est que l\u2019on passe outre les multiples fautes de traduction et autres maladresses \u00e9ditoriales.<\/p>\n
