Since 'Seven Deadly Wonders', Mr. Reilly got me hooked with his style of writing. He got me at the edge of my seat most of the times... but somehow left me unsatisfied at the end of this book.
Jack West, Jr. and his multinational gang is back! This time, the adventures are more dangerous, the enemies are stronger, the challenges are trickier and the destinations which we are taken to are simply fascinating.
This one is a page-turner. A winner all the way.

Bloody awful. Is there any way to give negative stars (as in -5)?

This would make a great action movie; there are a lot of tense scenes. The lower rating is because I found the writing unsophisticated, and the plot difficult to believe. But maybe it’s meant to be that way, since there is an element of the supernatural in it.

I thought the first book was insane but this one took it to a new level. And I freakin loved it!
So fast paced and so unbelievable, The Six Sacred Stones took me all around the world looking for massive diamonds that will save the world!
Sounds crazy and lame right?
Nope.
It was great and the insanity and invincibility of the characters is the only thing keeping me together right now. Otherwise I wild be a blubbering mess after that finale!
But I'm not because Jack West Jr is surely invincible and will come back and finish saving the world in the next book. Right?
I sure damn hope so!

Gripping. A bit violent in places, tense in most but a good read.

Mannnnn, even though I didnt read this right away, the absolute audacity of Matthew Reilly to cast his best hero off a bottomless abyss as a cliffhanger - I mean come on!
