An ancient order.

A deadly conspiracy.

A race against time.

When Jake Crowley rescues Rose Black from assailants on the streets of London, the two find themselves embroiled in a mystery that could cost them their lives. People are dying, and all the victims have one thing in common with Rose: a birthmark in the shape of an eagle.

From beneath the streets of London, to castle dungeons, to the heart of Christendom and beyond, Jake and Rose must race to stay alive as they seek to unlock the secrets of the Blood Codex.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I have not read any books by David Wood so I do not have any of his prior works to compare this to as some other reviewers did. However, as a first time reader, I felt this was a really good adventure story with history and Norse Mythology thrown in. It did remind me of Dan Brown's "The DaVinci Code."

The main characters, Jake Crowley, a history teacher, and Rose Black, a museum guide, travel throughout Europe in search of historical clues to puzzle out why some men are trying to kidnap Rose. While you might say how would a history teacher and a museum guide have the wherewithal to travel and to stay one step ahead of the bad guys? Well, Jake is not just a history teacher, he is former military with specialized training. Rose has contacts everywhere who provide assistance and she is no slouch in the combat department. As for money for this adventure - unclear. But, in these types of books, you have to believe that the main characters will always be equipped with all they need to be successful in the adventure and just enjoy the ride.

I really enjoyed the historical and Norse mythology aspects of this book. The two main characters, Jake and Rose, are empathetic and at times humorous. They work well together. Although it seems that Jake is a lot more enamored of Rose than vice versa, I am guessing so that there is some basis for why he puts his life on the line for someone he just met. Putting that aside, I found the story moved along at a good pace and there were some good twists along the way.

The narrator, Jonathan Waters, did a great job conveying the lighter moments as well as the tensioned filled moments of the story through his vocal intonations. He did use different character voices and it was easy to understand who was speaking. I found his voice very pleasant.

Not my normal genre, but I'm ifer now. The narration was superb, with just the right inflection and changes for characters to be distinguishable and easy to follow. I didn't expect much for the story,(as I said not my normal genre) but was surprised that I was completely engrossed and wanted more. Bravo!

I'm a lifer now

This book just didn't have the spark that other David Wood books I've listen to have had. It was an interesting romp with unique places, but just not a typical David Wood book - which I presume is because it's a co-authored book. I'll give the next book a try to see if things improve. If not, I'll just wait for the next Maddock book to come out.

Another new co-authored series

I thought this was a pretty good book. I liked the adventure and by play between Jake and Rose. The action was fast paced and the story was full of historic references. The narration was great, too, so I thought this was a well rounded and enjoyable book. I'll definitely look for more Jake Crowley action.

Great adventure story!

Wood and Baxter might be the best writing duo since Lennon and McCartney! Although this isn't their best work, it's still better than 97.384% of the audiobooks out on the market today. This gripping adventure will keep you on the edge of your seat, and make you start questioning what your own birthmarks might mean. Do yourself a favor, and give this book a listen ASAP.

I received this book free of charge for an honest review.. the title is misleading and played a fairly minor role though that particular topic would have been intriguing. it was kinda like indianna jones plenty of stuff going on but not alot of suspense. story flowed a little to smoothly for me to really enjoy it as much as other series. over all a decent story and the narration was ok. Just not my particular taste.

not bad but not my thing

It's my introduction to works by both David Wood and Alan Baxter, and it's a very enjoyable one.

The book uses Norse mythology and Viking rituals as the starting point of the plot, and then goes on a rollercoaster of adventures, with one exciting event after another. The pace is really fast, the main characters likeable, the villains... well, villaneous and a bit crazy:) There are some improbabilities and implausibilities in the storyline, but as the book has the feel of the Indiana Jones movies, they do not bother the reader/listener so much.

Narration by Mr Waters is very good. He brings all the characters to life effortlessly, keeps up with the pace of the story, adding excitement to it and making it almost a cinematic experience. Definitely a narrator worth coming back to.

"You'll be enthralled by the gripping story, and you'll laugh out loud from the snarky interactions between Jake and Rose I hope this is the first of many Jake Crowley adventures."

Epic listen !
