5.0 out of 5 starsAnother winner for Pendergast
Reviewed in Australia on 27 October 2016
As always this was a wonderful story and as always now I will have to wait ages for the next one! I can never get enough of Pendergast and " Constance. I liked that there was more of Proctor in this book and finally got some answers as to his past. I had only one small niggle and that was with editing - there were many instances of "of" and "off" being wrongly used and for a book that uses language so effectively it jarred just a little. It wasn't enough to spoil the story - nothing can do that for a Pendergast book. I hope the guys are writing the next one already because the waiting is hard.

2.0 out of 5 starsPlease proof read the ebooks!
Reviewed in Australia on 1 December 2016
The book itself was great! 5 stars all the way. But the ebook presentation was full of spelling errors. I advised Kindle who wanted to talk about it, but didn't fix it.

4.0 out of 5 stars E-Book full of mistakes
Reviewed in Australia on 20 October 2016

I love the Pendergast series and the book is great so far however full of errors which I assume has happened on conversion. Even a name was transposed to the wrong person, very disappointing. I would have thought it would have been checked properly before being made available to read. I'm only about 14% into the book and am constantly finding mistakes eg "of" should be "off", "cofin" should be "coffin" etc. Not a good look.

5.0 out of 5 stars This series keeps getting better and better

It's riveting to get deeper into Pendergast's life, feelings, motivations and history. We also get to know more about those people closest to him, come face to face again with an old enemy, and still there are surprises that will keep you hooked. This story will be more profound if you have read earlier books in the series. Fantastic read.

Well written and interesting, but not anywhere near as good as the early Pendergast novels.

4.0 out of 5 stars Initially full of mistakes but later remedied. Top stuff!

They sorted it out and republished the book with the problems corrected. Now up to the same high standard as the rest of the series.

Original review below

I've stopped halfway through. I'm trying to enjoy it and I'm sure I will, once someone releases the correct version. This one is absolutely littered with grammatical and spelling mistakes. It's an absolute mess.

I thought The Obsidian Chamber was excellent. As usual there was plenty of sub plots, twists and turns and believable action. Love these two authors and I hope they coninue to keep us entertained for many more adventures with Special Agent Aloysious X L Pendergast.

Another excellent Pendergast. I knew he couldn't be dead. His fans would kill Preston/Childs if they knocked him off. Lots of surprises in it. Constance is really coming into her own these days. Felt sad at the ending. Pity we have to wait a year for the next one.

Loved this book. Will certainly be looking out for sequels. Quite an interesting departure from many of the mystery type thrillers - an excellent read.
