Great read
great book
Too many unbelievable escapes, not written well — jerky to read.
I really enjoyed this book, it reminded me of the movie National Treasure, and Demons and Angels. It had a lot of suspense, I really loved it. I was surprised at some of the actions of the main character, but the story came together in an unexpected way.
The possibility of the secret maybe being true was interesting but Joey was to much of a MacGyver always squeaking out of situ
It was ok….
Use of history and imagination. Was a good read.
Some of the worst writing ever. Put it down 50% through
Great book, couldn’t put it down.
Quick easy read.
Great story line. You can connect with the characters right from the beginning and stay with them through the whole story. Lots of twists and turns,just a all around great story
Very good writing.
This book grabbed my interest from the first chapter. It is fast paced, full of action and thrills, and has a fun puzzle to solve. Joey is a well fleshed out character that deserves many more adventures!
