review 1: This book was excitement and adventure from beginning to end and a darned good example of why William Dietrich is one of my favorite authors. Central character Ethan Gage is lucky, witty, enterprising and humerous all of which makes for a wild, rollicking good read. He gets into and out of tight spots as quickly as any adventurer I've ever read. I like the way the author weaves his stories around historical fact. Yes, some situations are preposterous but it's darned good fun and a read that I just can't put down. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Highly recommended for those who enjoy their historical fiction with liberal doses of myth and adventure.
review 2: Well, this Installment of the Ethan Gage adventures ended better than it began. ... moreI'm not so sure why I care so much about the character, who is Forrest Gump meets Indiana Jones, perhaps the answer is that the historical aspect of this clearly well-researched novel is more than enough for me to suffer through the travails of the idiot hero who only cares about getting laid. Why Astiza fell in love with this loser is a true mystery, especially since she seems so much more evolved as a person, but she may yet disappoint if she ever reappears. Before you completely reject the title, do note that the research into ancient mysteries and esoterica is accurate, wide-ranging and very interesting. So much so, in fact, that I am willing to suffer through volume 4. less
