This is an attempt to review three novels in one go. As they are all similar/inter-connected, it seems pointless to tackle each individually. Matthew Reilly is an oddity – An Australian writer who has cracked into the action/espionage market. The stories move at breakneck speed, from his ‘Wonders’...
This was the first of the Shane Schofield (a.k.a. "Scarecrow") novels.Everything is non-stop action, going from one over the top situation to another.There's no clever plots-within-plots, or sudden twists. Each situation comes on at full speed and is usually dealt with in the same way.As it's one of...
This book is bad, really, really bad, like Michael Bay-bad. I knew that I had to shut down a fair amount of my brain cells in order to enjoy this book, but I wasn´t prepared for the fact that I had to shut down my brain entirely. This book is the living proof that if you don´t like the initial 25% o...
My 2nd Reilly book and it was awesome! I had purchased this book months ago and just hadnt gotten around to reading it but I read "Contest" and absolutely loved it so I plucked it off my shelf. Now im wishing i would have read it alot sooner!

This book was my wet dream come true.Marine recon force and SAS commandos pitting strength & skill at each other in pursuit of a prize in a goddamn ice station while there is HOLYFUCK! a traitor within the Marine recon team and...
5 starsDespite all the not-so-good ratings and scary reviews that were almost convinced me to not read this book, it was quite actually interesting. It got me hooked until the end, it made me stayed up late at night and I even dreamed about it on my sleep. Talk about extreme level of imagination. Th...
The first in the series about Marine Lieutenant Shane M. Schofield, call-sign Scarecrow. I read Scarecrow a few months ago and loved it from the start, so I was curious as to what the start of the series was like.Let me tell you, it was as good as the third book in the series. It pulls the reader in...
