Review: Seven Ancient Wonders


Seven Ancient Wonders
Seven Ancient Wonders by Matthew Reilly

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Take Indiana Jones, remove all of the time spent at his college, and then cram seven movies worth of action into a single book and you have Seven Ancient Wonders. It was just non-stop - one adventure after another, all linked by a prophetic story.

This isn't my usual style but it was an enjoyable listen and certainly helped entertain me on several commutes. I liked that it wasn't too over the top on the 'all the good guys manage to avoid thousands of bullets while every bad guy dies' approach to action. Good people died, bad people survived, very few people had that obvious "they will survive" quality.
