Among the best of the Berry books I've read so far. Cotton Malone to me is getting to be a more and more interesting character in his books, and this strength really meshes well with Berry's well-researched, well-planned plots. I hope Malone continues to grow as a character in future Berry novels.
I've been lucky lately in that Rollins, Thor, and now Berry have put out their best work in their latest releases (next to last for this Berry work). I enjoyed this Berry novel more than any of his others. The characters were much stronger and easier to identify with in this book than other Berry bo...
Good plot, not so good pacing. Parts of this got extremely choppy and I admit I had trouble keeping track of where certain characters were at a given moment. Not among his best works, but I did enjoy parts of the background plot.
Intriguing plot, very interesting history, but rather vanilla characters.

This novel was extrem...

This time Cotton Malone is caught up in a CIA operation called King's Deception. See what Steve Berry did there. Cotton and his son G...
A thriller set in China, involving the Chinese, Russians and Americans. Alliances are necessary, but is everyone who they claim to be. In addition to the page-turning allure, this book is also informative: concerning the history of China and other scientific discoveries and inventions. This, I find,...
