Dourado

De: David Wood

Narrado por: Jeffrey Kafer

A sunken treasure. An ancient Biblical artifact. A mystery as old as humankind. On January 25, 1829, the Portuguese brig Dourado sank off the coast of Indonesia, losing its cargo of priceless treasures from the Holy Land. One of these lost relics holds the key to an ancient mystery. But someone does not want this treasure to come to light.

When her father is murdered while searching for the Dourado, Kaylin Maxwell hires treasure hunter and former Navy Seal Dane Maddock and his partner Uriah "Bones" Bonebrake, to locate the Dourado and recover a lost Biblical artifact, the truth behind which could shake the foundations of the Church, and call into question the fundamentally held truths of human existence.

Join Dane and Bones on a perilous adventure that carries them from the depths of the Pacific to ancient cities of stone as they unravel the mystery of the Dourado.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A fast-paced adventure with action to spare. Dane Maddock is a hero cut from the Dirk Pitt mold, and 'Bones' Bonebrake is the best sidekick around. If you like your thrillers with a touch mystery and Biblical archaeology, Dourado is the book for you. ( Megalith Book Reviews)

Great adventure!

This book was one of the best that I've read in awhile, that involves the elements of adventure, surprise, mystery and a story line compelling enough to make you want to read on.

I have been waiting for this book to become available on audio and it was definitely worth the wait. Kafer does a superb job of bringing the characters to life. He is Bones!!

Action Packed Thriller

Would you consider the audio edition of Dourado to be better than the print version?

I definitely would consider the audio version better as I haven't read the physical book but I'm certainly sure it's great as well.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes. The plot was very interesting and full of adventure. Sunken treasure, an old French Bible, maps, an interesting ancient sword, the city of Petra. Awesomeness.

Which scene was your favorite?

I enjoyed the whole book. There are too many good scenes to try and single one out. I like the part about the sword.

Yes it was a book I wanted to listen to all in one sitting and I'll probably listen to this book again. I enjoyed it. I also really would like to continue with the series.
