Another high octane thriller in the Jack West series that effortlessly combines modern technology and settings with ancient myths and conspiracy theories. These books are such a brilliant escape from boring everyday life. Even if they are a little unrealistic, they’re always fun and always exciting, and you never know what twist will be around the corner. I just love the way that Reilly writes, it’s so refreshing. No flowery language or endless metaphors - he cuts straight to the action and doesn’t stop. I almost forgot how good this series is, but now I’ve been reminded im going to be eagerly reading the next two instalments.
