Overall Content Rating: Restricted R
This is an action-heavy science-fiction or adventure story with archaeology and military conspiracy threads, following several groups who eventually connect. Expect steady strong language, including very strong swears, in everyday speech under pressure. Parents may also want to know about non-graphic references to sexual assault affecting a vulnerable character, recurring physical violence and riot scenes, a modest romantic thread that is not the main focus, and reviewer-reported anti-Catholic portrayals of church institutions as antagonistic. There is no on-page explicit sexual content in the sampled material; themes of sexual assault are acknowledged rather than dramatized in detail.
