review 1: This was a fun, fast-paced, treasure hunt of a thriller that was fairly entertaining.[return][return]However, it did take some time to get used to the clipped sentences. It seems as though the author were seeing a movie in his head and was trying his hardest to keep his writing up to the fast pace. [return][return]The language had no real flavour to it. It was at its most entertaining when you thought of it as a movie tie-in novel, just without the benefits of actually having a film to watch before or afterwards. If you can 'see' this book in your head, you're as golden as the treasure they seek.[return][return]In short, the plot was there, the characters were waiting in the wings, and the language failed miserably. But it will work as an escapist read for half-hea... morerted, beach-time readers.
review 2: This was a fun, entertaining, and interesting book. The story of a long time "treasure dog" doing one of his best friends (Sean) one last favor after Sean's death, and protecting his granddaughter. Through meeting the granddaughter (Storm), he (Harry) begins, with Storm, a hunt for some of the most sought-after and desired treasure, that no one had ever been able to find. There are lots of twists and turns, and the excitement that comes along with the main characters being hunted. There are a number of attempts on their lives throughout the book, which adds to the excitement and intrigue. I read through this book pretty quickly - it was a great page turner, and it really kept me interested from start to end. A fun book, and one I would definitely recommend! less
