This is the end of a series of these books, and it probably makes more sense if you've read the whole lot. That said, I came to it as a result of a free promotion on amazon and read it cold and it still worked for me.

There are shades of von Daniken here, as the author has taken all the conspiracy theories about the ancient civilisations being planted here by aliens and run with them. It is an all action hero saves the world type of book, and very good for when you need to disengage from reality and indulge in pure escapism.

Meh.

I enjoyed the Sphinx and Grail, and since then it's downhill for me. Sure it answered some questions about the series, but the writing is bad, there are numerous errors/inconsistencies an editor should have caught, and I just don't care about Turcotte enough to have enjoyed it.
I'll still probably read the rest of the series, but it's because I like the over arching story, not because I especially enjoy the process.

While.a good wrap up it goes on a little

While the book is a good conclusion to everything that hsppened. The Shadows back up plan just felt pointless and he could have been dealt with much earlier and neater
