Nice and mediocre. I think the author has a major Dan Brown fetish.
Good thriller - lots of history tidbits mixed in. Non-stop action pace.

Sorry to say this novel did not hold my interest as it proposed an incident during the termination of The Templars!
Maybe I'm getting bored with this genre--too many people being gratuitously murdered. I skimmed a decent amount from the middle to the end. I mostly wanted to find out the specifics of what they were looking for and the implications of finding it. If there's a 3rd book, I'll probably skip it. Too formulaic.
Enjoyed this sequel as much as the first one. Good escapist fantasy, complete with thievery, kidnapping, gunplay, and archaeology. How could I not like it?

Much better story. This one compared to the first one.
A lot more action, though the ending was somewhat down. It look so long to find it only for it to be destroyed and we don't know the background of the bad guy.
oh well.
A good read.

Just bad... Imagine Dan Brown but with unrealistic characters and more hate of "Church"
I'd probably call it 3.5 if Goodreads allowed. Overall I found this much more compelling than it's predecessor but the plot was bogged down by too many unnecessarily long fight sequences. I have more thoughts on this but too tired to write them coherently.
