Genre - Adventure, Australian Author

Great Australian fiction writer with plenty of action and certainly keeps you in suspense. Mostly for the men folk and those that like Indiana Jones type action with state of the art arms and weapons used.

Storyline is set around the jungle in Peru for the hunt of a legendary Incan idol that was made from a meteor which resulted in producing a material that could be used to completely eradicate earth. Sounds a bit wild, but the leading role is that of a learned Professor in languages, particularly Incan. The history into the Incan tribe makes very interesting reading, and the fact that the Spanish overtook most of the tribes to make it what it is today.

Professor Race approached by the hierarchy of the USA is forced to go along for the ‘ride of his life’. Not only is he in danger, but what he encounters makes you to keep reading this fast moving action packed thriller.

Genre -Adventure/Thriller

For Cussler fans, this is a gripping storyline and one that seems quite believable and rather scary the thought of it. Kurt Austin and Joe Zavala and the NUMA special assignments team are well and truly back in action.

Something is changing the sea and climate in the Indian ocean. Who is behind the scheme and what is it that is causing this disruption? An excellent read and hard to put down with gripping results.
