review 1: Under a sudonym and in the tropics, Daniel Knox is plying his Marine Archaeology trade to find the wreck of a Chinese treasure ship. However, a friend and her father have gone missing from their nature reserve, Eden. Rebecca Kirkpatrick is a Famous TV Zoologist and Animal Behaviourist, She has had very minimal contect with her sister and father over the last decade. But when she is told they have gone missing, she rushes to Madagascar as fast as possible to find them.As Daniel and Rebecca chase their answers it becomes clear that there may be alot more going on then meets the eye.I Enjoy Will Adam's books... To a certain extent. The use of movement and pace he puts into his action scenes, in my eyes, save the his books alot of the time. I Find his heavy use of History ... moreand Archaeology fascinating and I fell I'm learning something I didnt know every other chapter. I think the pitfalls of this novel is the Ending. It seemed it was building up to a twist right at the end and then nothing happened. That's unfair, something did happen and it was so banal that my mind skipped it, expecting more. The cliffhanger ( of sorts) was wrapped up almost instantly in the Epilogue, which confused me.But beyond that, it was an enjoyable read and fast read as this series' books are. Although I would not rate it higher then Book 1 or Book 2, It was better then the disaster of Book 3.
review 2: I am a bit torn by this book. I want to like it, but it just didn't do it for me. There were plots in there I really liked, and it finished nicely in the end, but the epilogue gave me the irrits. You'll see when you read it. Again, an airport book, it was fun, took you on an adventure, added a bit of history and mystery, but... I did however like the basis behind it, so I am pleased I have read it. I now need to go and find the previous three in the 'series'. A solid read, but if you want mental stimulation try something else. less
