Just average, and it's partly my fault because I was expecting the novel to take off story wise quicker than it did......and in the meantime I was subjected to massive historical facts (which I applaud Berry's research on) where I was more in the mood for character and plot development. The ending s...
This was a good book. I was interested enough to read through it fairly quickly and liked the plot. The Templar's appear in a number of books and it is always interesting to me to see how each author changes the tales and creates new endings. I liked the surprises throughout the book that kept th...
This reads like a The Da Vinci Code rip-off, although I actually have to rate Berry's novel higher, because, unlike the case with Brown's book, the writing isn't eye-bleeding and the history isn't obviously sloppy in ways I can't miss. This seems well-researched and much better grounded in history ...
The Templar Legacy is basically a complete rip off of The Davinci Code, which was not that great of a novel to begin with. It has fewer twists and turns than the original, and is even more convoluted. Furthermore, Steve Berry does not remotely impress me with his writing skill. In The Templar Legacy...
I was a bit skeptical when I started to read this book. I am not a believer of the Dan Brown book topics so I was concerned that this may follow in those steps. As I was reading, my thoughts were that it was well written and researched. I was enjoying the book. The characters were well developed...
Very much in the Da Vinci Code mode, this is a argument against religion and an adventure story all rolled into one. Ex-agent Cotton Malone has abandoned the US for Denmark. His ex-boss is in the city and she wants his help keeping herself alive and finding out what exactly her husband's researc...
Well, it's about time we recognize and create a distinct genre for these types of books and save from getting shoved from thriller to historical and again to thriller shelves. It's confusing isn't.These authors, the likes Dan brown, Steve berry Etc forges a thriller pivoting it around so much of his...
The Knights Templars were founded in Jerusalem in 1118 to protect the pilgrims visiting Palestine at the end of the First Crusade of 1096. The full, original name was "The Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple which is in Jerusalem", but the for the sake of this review I will just refer to them as T...
Written two years before The Da Vinci Code, Steve Berry does a much better job with the Templar history. Having read this book out of order of the series, it is a little discerning to hear the back story between Cotton and Cassopia, but it is nice now to have that story. Berry keeps the reader inter...
So in my review of The Third Secret I mentioned that I have a love/hate relationship between Steve Berry. However, the introduction of Cotton Malone into the fray helped me along with The Templar Legacy. It doesn't take away from the fact that he's still capitalizing on the religious mystery/Dan Bro...
