El Dorado Gold – a review by Rosemary Kenny
Ryan ‘R.B.’ Bodean is a down-to-earth slightly naive guy whose nickname is ‘clumsy’ – often with good reason.
A seaplane afficionado, he’s thrilled when Jackson ‘J.T’ (aka ‘Papa’, due to his resemblance to Ernest Hemingway) Tannenbaum hires R.B, his archeologist girlfriend Megan, Joe Wayne, a huge bodyguard/weapons specialist and Australian MMA expert Paulina (‘Mac’) MacPherson, to follow up on research into the eponymous treasure in the South American jungle, as part of the newly-formed S.C.O.U.T. team.
Papa provides them with weapons, equipment, a splendid state-of-the-art seaplane and most valuable, backup in the form of tech genius Xiao, who hacks satellites around the world to track the team and update them with useful info.
Events unfold at breakneck speed, leaving the hapless R.B and Megan in the greatest danger of their lives, in Steven Moore’s latest fantastic adventure, in the A Ryan Bodean Tropical Adventure series, that will hook you like a marlin on a spike and make you forget all about the Covid-19 peril, or your Lockdown Blues, as you’re whisked away to a world of lies, deception and danger, where legends come to life and transpiring events illuminate you to things you could never imagine in your wildest dreams.
Steven Moore writes a brilliant, no-holds-barred thriller novel, as you’ll soon realise, when you get your copy of El Dorado Gold. Don’t delay, get it today!
More fantastic adventures with Ryan and Megan as they explore another legend. I like checking out the places they mention out on line to make the story come even more alive .
“..the rewards they seek can only ever be achieved through goodness and honor.”
A nail-biting action with a highly imaginative premise. The beginning is tremendously fun, it already starts with intrigue and cryptic tones, pulling you into the story immediately! I was totally awed, it was like a scene out of a James Bond film, so outstanding it was! It felt so real, I could feel the wonder of R.B. It’s filled with courage, betrayal, hardships and surprising discoveries over some of the most oppressive rulers the world has ever encountered. An outstanding premise, filled with horrors, hardcore, and yet witty in its dialogue that made the reading lighter with fun moments, it helped to digest the terrible actions perpetrated by a wicked organisation. An engaging storyline indeed. Moore and Berens have done a wonderful co written job! I highly recommend this series.
El Dorado Gold, the 4th book in the Ryan Bodean Tropical Thrillers series is the best yet. Davis Berens and Steven Moore, wonderful authors in the own right, are dynamite collaborators.
In this book, R.B. and Megan join S.C.O.U.T., a secret intelligence organization. Their first mission sends them to Columbia, in search of the mysterious legend of El Dorado, and to save the ancient Muisca tribe and their Zipa from being overtaken by the Illuminati.
It is an adrenaline-fueled, non-stop roller coaster ride, filled with bullets, bombs, fires, and white knuckle plane crashes. It calls on historical facts and exotic locales to build a fantastical story filled with complex and interesting characters. The story twists and turns and keeps your interest until the last page, at 4:30 in the morning in my case. Don’t miss this one, and read the whole series.
Breath-holding, white-knuckling adventure…
David Berens and Steven Moore once more combine their creative genius to offer us another hair-raising, action-packed adventure replete with super-high-tech toys, ancient tribal rituals, and amazing characters, some lovable, some duplicitous and utterly loathsome. While this is the third book in the Ryan Bodean Tropical Thriller series, I believe you can fully enjoy the story without having read the previous books. I doubt you will want to stop with just one, though, as all the books in this series are stellar adventure stories featuring Ryan Bodean, a very likable treasure-hunter and adventure enthusiast as well as Megan Simons, his partner in the salvage/treasure-hunting business and potential romantic partner. In this story, our intrepid heroes are off to the Amazon to prevent the evil and power-hungry Illuminati from seizing control of the massive cache of gold of the fabled El Dorado. The stakes could not be higher. The tension is palpable as our heroes circle ever closer to a dangerous showdown with their highly-trained, well-funded and exquisitely lethal enemy. If you enjoy amazing adventure peppered with authentic historical facts all set in exciting and exotic locales, this is a series worth every second of your time.
I was provided with an advance copy of this book by the authors and I am voluntarily offering my honest and unbiased review.
Start to finish action and intrigue in this 3rd in series Ryan Bodean thriller. Ryan and Megan begin by solving a puzzle which grants them membership in a mysterious organization. They are immediately put onto a team tasked with finding and protecting El Dorado from the powerful Illuminati organization. The mission timing is crucial as SCOUT has a mole passing info on to the Illuminati. To further complicate the issues, Ryan and Megan each have some attraction to another of their team-mates which will introduce some conflict between Ryan and Megan.
When the book ends there are still some unresolved issues to be addressed in following volumes that will hopefully continue the story of SCOUT vs Illuminati. I eagerly look forward to following books.
I received a free advanced reader copy. This is my honest and voluntary review.
Ryan Bodean, Megan, Joe and Megan are on a mission to find the El Dorado and the gold. Every place they stop, it seems the enemy knows where they are. Gun battles,poisoning and their sea plane runs out of gas and they have to land in the ocean. A a lot of twists and turns in this thriller. A page turner that does not disappoint.
David Berens is a really fine writer and this story is a good one. It is nothing like Troy Brodean books where the action in underwater in the keys, but it is a very fun book and you will enjoy it I am sure. Lots of twist make it an unpredictable book that keeps you reading. There is plenty of action and suspense so you will keep turning the pages to find out what twist is next.
