The Sacred Sword (2012)
language
English
series
4.15 of 5 Votes: 2
review 1: Not the strongest entry in the Ben Hope series but entertaining nonetheless. While earlier entries whip along like a white water rapid this one just seemed to move at a steady pace. It didn't really bog down but the typical breakneck pace never materialized. A couple of surpri...

review 1: Another decent offering in the Ben Hope series and this time it's personal. Three people are missing; one of them happens to be Ben's ex-girlfriend, Dr Brooke Marcel, and he will do whatever it takes to find her. The trail takes him from Ireland to South America and includes a hi...

review 1: I'm usually quite a fan of Scott Mariani but this book was rather disappointing. First of all, it took a while to really get rolling. The premise sounded good and I had high hopes for a real Indiana Jones type adventure. Imagine my surprise when I started running across not ju...
The Lost Relic (2011)

English
series
4.09 of 5 Votes: 1
review 1: It does hook you in and it is interesting enough to keep you wanting to read one more chapter, but it is not as good as the best chapters in the Hope series and has suffers from a number of major flaws, in my opinion:1) differently from the others this is much more of an action s...
The Alchemist's Secret (2011)

English
series

review 1: This was a free Kindle copy. As other reviewers have noted, this is clearly a Dan Brown type story, with a little Kate Mosse thrown in. The characters were thus just as one would expect - brave man, brainy and beautiful sidekick, Catholic villains, unhelpful police ... Not a bad ...
The Mozart Conspiracy (2011)

review 1: This is a conspiracy theory complete with evil all-controlling mastermind and his psychopathic henchmen killing at will with impunity vs lone wolf good-guy protecting the innocents and unravelling a mystery. I didn't find it laughable until a bit at the end, which is more than...

review 1: I really like the characters of Ben and Brooke. While formulaic, rather predictable, inconsistent and not particularly well written, the previous books Mariani wrote about Ben Hope were rather interesting, at times compelling, all in all quite enjoyable. The plot always dragged i...

review 1: A much more engaging read than 'The Doomsday Prophecy'. I find Egyptian history fascinating and having been to a number of the places mentioned in the story just made the whole thing so much more interesting. The heretic of the title is Akhenaten who moved his people away from th...

review 1: Very exciting thriller. It was quite violent and had swearing, but it was very exciting. If you like Dan Brown, or the Bourne books this would be perfect. The main character, Ben Hope, is ex-army and currently runs a training camp for military people in hostage situations. One ni...

review 1: I’ve read a couple of Scott Mariani’s books before and very much enjoyed them. When I was searching through ebook/ Novellas on Amazon, I came across Passenger 13 and as it was a ‘Ben Hope’ book, I downloaded it without hesitation. I wasn’t disappointed in the slightest.Ben Hope i...

review 1: Once I started it, I could barely put it down! This was a good thing because I did not start it until about 36 hours before my library was going to suck it off of my iPad! I cannot remember how I even decided to check this out because it turned out to be #1 in a series about a fo...

review 1: I was pleased to finally find this book as an ebook and was doubly pleased to find how much I enjoyed it. Lots of action even if everything wasn't a complete surprise. Some of the writing lacked polish but I chalked it up to the writer's first book. I enjoyed the action and th...

review 1: Good start to what should be an interesting series. The books are clearly modelled on Dan Brown's Robert Langdon series, but changing the dynamics of the main character a little. Ben Hope is a bit more of a mix of Robert Langdon with Lee Child's Jack Reacher. Quite a few typos in...

review 1: I enjoyed The Mozart Conspiracy as a thriller more than as a historical thriller. From looking at the reviews, I didn't have any expectations as to what the story was about, not even sure I read the blurb actually, just read the book because I had read the first one and thought I...

review 1: I haven't yet read one of Scott's books that I haven't enjoyed. If you like adventure/thriller-type books with a pace that keeps moving, then I definitely recommend you try one & see if the shoe fits.The series is based on the main character, Ben Hope, who starts off as a rather...

review 1: This was another great book in the series, in fact I actually think that this was better than the first two books. It had everything, international settings, twists and turns and a great hero. I have read books Andy McNab (Nick Stone) and some of Lee Child (Jack Reacher) but Be...

review 1: This is my 4th Scott Mariani / Ben Hope novel. I started with #7 quite by accident thanks to an impulse buy one Sunday.The prophecy story is my favourite so far because it touches on religious fanaticism and the danger the world faces from those who take several thousand year ol...
