I couldn't believe it when the book car to such a sudden & climatic end. This is only my second Matthew Riley book - following The Seven Ancient Wonders, and I'm already a great fan.
I a great fan of Tolkien, JK Rowland's, CS Lewis etc but I particularly like the way that Matthew's exhaustive research brings a degree of credibility into this trilogy ( or more?) And if, like me, you like Egyptian & Greek mythology & history, you'll love the books.

The world is in mortal danger. For Jack West Jr and his loyal team of heroes, the challenge now is to set six legendary diamonds known as 'the Pillars' in place at six ancient sites around the world before the deadline for global destruction arrives. But the locations of these sites can only be revealed by the fabled Six Sacred Stones. Their quest will involve the death-defying hijack of a mountain-top railway in China, a midnight expedition to Stonehenge, a headlong chase across the deserts of Egypt, and a trek into the dark realm of an African tribe forgotten by time. With only the riddles of ancient writers to guide them, and time rapidly running out, Jack and his team must fight their way past traps, labyrinths and a host of deadly enemies - knowing that this time they cannot, will not, must not fail. The mission is incredible. The consequence of failure is unimaginable. The ending is unthinkable.

This and the following book, The Five Greatest Warriors, must be read back-to-back.
While other novels manages to conclude their portions of the overarching story, this one does not.
It reads more like the first two chapters of a six-chapter book.
It also brings the novel series into a serial format, bringing in elements from the first novel and teasing future plot lines.

I finally abandoned this book 80 percent through. Very unusual for me. Far fetched childish nonsense.

Another exciting and thought provoking book. You'll certainly hope that if the end of the world is coming and the rich, powerful and greedy are in charge that a hero like Jack West will save us all.

Incredible fun and impossible scenarios which will keep you engaged , loved it
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 August 2017Verified Purchase
I have ti say fro the outset of this review that I am a bit of a fan. I read the first on the series and was hooked. the second book is just as exciting and rollicking great fun and adventure as the first, am about to buy book three and so on and so on. Just think, "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Mission Impossible, James Bond, The Mummy (1&2), Harry Potter and every other off the wall adventure you've sen in film TV or read in a book". Suspend your disbelief, actually ; suspend everything and just go with the flow , its non stop over the top adventure with improbable settings and impossible escapes , You will think "how the hell will Jack get out of this" and whilst he does, you wont actually care about the improbability of it all. Simply enjoy and go along for the ride. I loved it, and look forward to reading lots more of the same. ..... just in case you miss my point (shouty capitol letters time....) ITS A GREAT FUN READ AND WILL KEEP YOU ENGAGED FROM BEGINNING TO END.......

Really Disappointed
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 June 2015Verified Purchase
Read quite a lot of Matthew Reillys books and usually enjoyed them even if a bit far fetched at times, but this book. I have to say I found it boring it seemed to waffle on and on and on and to be honest I felt I'd lost the will to live with it as by the end I couldn't see the point of what I'd just read only that I'd seemed to have wasted a couple of hours reading this book when I could have read something a lot better Come on Matthew I know you can write better than this

this is the 2nd book in an amazing rollercoster ride of adventure and history. where a group of small nations join together to take on the heavy weights of the world and win. well worth a read but buy the other two books first then sit back put everything on hold for a few days of non stop action
