Seven Deadly Wonders by Matthew Reilly

5.0

Seven Deadly Wonders is one the few, if not the only history-conspiracy-thriller-action thingamajig I've read that I genuinely liked. it has its flaws, obviously. Matthew Reilly has a tendency to go overboard with the exclamations to remind us that the action is intense, and the story needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. However, it is very enjoyable, and difficult to put down. The characters are fun, and the pseudohistorical conspiracies fall right into that sweet spot of being exciting while not trying too hard.
