7 Deadly Wonders

By: Matthew Reilly

Narrated by: William Dufris

The Golden Capstone atop the Great Pyramid at Giza offered protection from the global flooding and scorching sun that occurs every 4,500 years due to the Tartarus Rotation solar event. But Alexander the Great broke the Capstone into seven pieces and hid them in the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Now, in 2006, another Tartarus Rotation is due, and whoever places the reconstructed Capstone on the pyramid in time will gain absolute earthly power. Everyone wants the Capstone - from the most powerful countries to terrorists - and one daring coalition of eight small nations who think that no single country should possess such awesome power.

amazing

I've read this book before, and still love every word of it , can't wait to start the next one, again

fantastic story

One of my favorite books combining history with a little fantasy aspect like Indiana jones.

Went in 100% Blind! Wow!

Never heard of Matthew Reilly.
Listened to it on a recommendation.
If you like Indiana Jones, and action movies this is a great listen.
Had a ton of fun listening to this, and it kept me wanting.

Excellent Choice

This was an excellent choice. The writing is superb and fast paced, action filled. The narrator was wonderful, creating audible accent differences making it seem like there were multiple different speakers of this multi-national team.

Reads like a B movie

While it was entertaining at times, the author’s characters, plot, and odd take on international politics were that of a high school sophomore writing a fiction for English class. The narrator had an odd way of pronouncing some words and seemed to really struggle with maintaining an Australian accent.
