The Lost Treasure of the Templars

The Hounds of God, Book 1

De: James Becker

Narrado por: Leighton Pugh

An absolutely gripping Templar conspiracy thriller, perfect for fans of Mario Reading, Dan Brown and Scott Mariani.

An ancient sect. A modern mystery. The most dangerous secret ever unearthed.

Antiquarian bookseller Robin Jessop has acquired a strange medieval volume. What appears to be a book is a cleverly disguised safe, in which she finds a single rolled parchment, written in code. For encryption expert David Mallory, the text is impenetrable. Until an invaluable clue opens the door to a conspiracy, stretching back seven centuries. Now Jessop and Mallory find themselves on a desperate hunt that could change history, topple an empire and bury them both alive. Because soon they’re not only the hunters. They’re also the hunted.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A thrilling historical mystery full of ingenious clues and unexpected twists.” (Good Book Guide)

Kept me glued on

I listened to this book in one night. Couldn't stop, lots of action. If you like the Templars you will like this book. Narrator versatile.

The ending was anti climactic to say the least.

The ending was anti climactic to say the least. Loved the book until the last 5 minutes.

over explained

I felt the story didn't flow as it should. the writer over explained every set up, that it couldn't enjoy it the flow and get into the actual story.

Plot over character

The plot and history of the Templars were interesting but there was little character development.

Formulaic

Slow and formulaic. Great subject but I am sorry but I will not continue with series.
