I read to page 54 and stopped just because I have other books I want to read more right now and I need to turn this one back in. I liked what I read so far but if you have read the Shane Schofield series you'll see that they are pretty similar. These are action & adventure stories for fun -not to be...

Konnici na Liriite - Chevalier Du Lys
Ahhh...Finally it's over. I am undecided on how many stars I am going to give. After making my review I will decide.So, what have we got here... A action-slash-adventure thriller book sure reads like a movie script.First of all I nearly gave up after reading 78 pages and after my second, third and e...

What a trainwreck, truly exercised my eyebrow this one. The main character is such a Marty Stu, the bad guys are an American team and a "European" team, despite the fact that the good guys have Europeans on their side. If the Capstone can't be returned to the Great Pyramid of Giza there will be ca...

For a long while I fully expected to give this book one star. Two at the most.It's an atrociously written book. Truly. The style is horrible! You get to a paragraph......and then it goes on like this!And when you've thought you've seen the worst there is to see——wait for it——then the excitement goes...

Please try to imagine reading a comic book, however, this particular comic does not have any pictures. If you are able to imagine that, you will have an idea of what this book is like.First of all, the characters are so one-dimensional it is laughable. Also, they have been drawn so completely over t...

Seven Deadly Wonders introduces a new character by Matthew Reilly to me, Jack West Jr. It's very hard to follow in the footsteps of Shane 'Scarecrow' Schofield, because, well, he's the man! But I have to say I really do like Jack. What's not to like about him? He's a fun character. Honorable, in...

From the first word on the first page this book takes you on an action packed roller coaster ride with Jack West Jr., Lily and an ensemble cast of characters. Their team, assembled from mismatched countries, take on crack commando teams from the U.S. and the E.U. to find the Seven Wonders of the Anc...

Every single one of these "wonders of the ancient world" thrillers are exactly the same, but I suppose this one was more entertaining than most. I picked it up at the grocery store in a moment of weakness because buying things makes me feel better.
